Aesthetic Porcelain Crowns
Overview of Aesthetic Porcelain Crowns
Cosmetic porcelain crowns are a modern type of dental restoration used to improve the shape, color, and function of teeth, helping the smile become more even, natural, and brighter. This method is widely chosen because it offers high aesthetic value and durability. Below are some important details about cosmetic porcelain crowns
What is aesthetic porcelain dentistry?
Cosmetic porcelain crowns are a type of dental prosthesis made from ceramic or a combination of ceramic and metal, designed to replace or restore natural teeth that are deficient in shape, color, or function. Porcelain crowns are highly durable, have a natural color that resembles real teeth, and are capable of withstanding significant force.
Popular Types of Aesthetic Dental Crowns
Metal-Ceramic Crowns (Ni-Cr or Co-Cr)
This type of dental crown has a metal alloy core covered with a layer of porcelain. Although it is more affordable, it may cause darkening of the gum line after long-term use.
Titanium Crown
This type of dental crown has a titanium framework, making it more durable and less likely to cause dark gum lines compared to regular metal-ceramic crowns. Titanium crowns are also lighter and biocompatible, ensuring safety for the body.
All-Ceramic Crowns
This type of crown is made entirely of ceramic, with no metal content. All-ceramic crowns offer the most natural tooth color, do not cause dark gum lines, and are highly durable. Common types of all-ceramic crowns include Zirconia, Cercon, and Emax, among others.
Other Types of Dental Crowns
Cercon metal-free ceramic crown (USA)
Cercon HT Ceramic (America)
Ceramill metal-free ceramic crown (Germany)
Nacera metal-free ceramic crown (Germany)
Orodent metal-free ceramic crown (Italy)
Emax metal-free ceramic crown (Switzerland)
Lavaplus 3M metal-free ceramic crown (USA)

Advantages of Aesthetic Dental Crowns
Dental crowns have a natural color, a glossy finish, and do not change color over time.
With proper care, dental crowns can last 10–15 years or longer.
Especially with all-ceramic crowns, which contain no metal, there is no risk of dark gum lines over time.
Ceramic materials do not irritate the gums and are safe for patients.
Candidates for Aesthetic Dental Crowns
Teeth that are decayed, chipped, fractured, or have worn enamel.
Teeth with gaps, misaligned, crowded, protruding, or recessed teeth; in such cases, combining orthodontic treatment is recommended if possible.
Teeth that are discolored, stained by tetracycline antibiotics, yellowed, or resistant to whitening treatments.

Herident Dental Clinic is supported by an on-site dental laboratory, allowing aesthetic adjustments to be made immediately based on customer preferences. This maximizes convenience and saves significant travel time for customers.
Strict Sterilization Procedures
At Herident, in addition to the expertise of our dedicated dental team, infection control and sterilization are always top priorities. Let’s take a look at our 8-step sterilization protocol – one of the hallmark practices developed by Dr. Hùng. This rigorous process is what sets us apart and has earned the trust of thousands of patients over the past 25 years, making Herident a trusted destination for dental care.
Step 1
Cleaning and handling contaminated instruments after treatment
Step 2
Transporting contaminated instruments to the processing area to prevent cross-contamination
Step 3
Soaking and ultrasonic cleaning of instruments with disinfectant solutions
Step 4
Clean the disinfectant solution using a washing machine with warm water and allow it to dry naturally.
Step 5
Package the instruments according to standards, with a heat indicator label, clearly stating the date.
Step 6
Sterilize the instruments using a steam autoclave according to the pre-set automatic process.
Step 7
Store the instruments in a UV sterilization cabinet according to the recommended usage period.
Step 8
Distribute and transport the instruments cleanly to the treatment room for use with each patient.
Combining the standards set by the Ministry of Health and global knowledge of sterilization practices in surgery, the sterilization protocol at Herident is a result of years of research and personal experience by Dr. Dang Trieu Hung, MD, PhD. to ensure that the dental environment remains clean, safe, and free from cross-contamination. The protocol is built around three key highlights:
- Closed-loop process: one-way flow from used to clean instruments
- Dividing the entire sterilization process into 4 distinct zones; each staff member is thoroughly trained to follow the 8-step sterilization process meticulously, as required by regulations. We place a strong emphasis on checking the expiration date and monitoring the storage temperature of each instrument set.
- Modern equipment, regularly inspected and maintained.
We understand that safety is the top concern when choosing a healthcare solution. Herident’s 25-year journey of empathy and understanding every customer’s concern has been the foundation of our dedicated service and steady growth to this day.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Procedures such as dental crowns, Veneer bonding, or Implant placement are typically performed under local anesthesia, ensuring you won't feel pain during the process. After the procedure, you might experience mild sensitivity for a few days, which is completely normal and will gradually subside.
The lifespan of aesthetic dental restorations depends on the material used and how well you care for your teeth after the procedure. High-quality materials like ceramic or premium veneers can last 10 to 20 years or more with proper care. Maintaining good oral hygiene and scheduling regular dental check-ups are essential for keeping your teeth durable and beautiful over the long term.
When undergoing aesthetic dental procedures, particularly dental crowning, a portion of the natural tooth enamel needs to be shaved down to fit the crown or veneer. However, if done correctly by a skilled dentist, this process will not compromise the structure or health of the natural tooth. Moreover, modern techniques today are designed to minimize the impact on the natural teeth as much as possible.
After getting aesthetic dental work, you should avoid foods that are too hard, excessively hot or cold, or strongly pigmented (such as coffee, wine, or tea) to protect your teeth and prevent staining. Additionally, limit chewing on hard items to avoid damaging or chipping the ceramic layer on your aesthetic restorations.
The cost of aesthetic dental procedures depends on the method you choose and the materials used. Options such as Veneer bonding, dental crowning, or Implant placement vary in price based on aesthetic requirements and the techniques involved. Investing in aesthetic dentistry is a significant decision, but with the improvements in both appearance and functionality, many find the results well worth the expense.
