In specific clinical scenarios where functionality and durability take precedence over aesthetics, particularly in cases of severely damaged posterior teeth, restorations must withstand substantial occlusal forces without fracturing. While all-ceramic or standard PFM restorations may fall short, metal collar PFM crowns provide superior structural support through their distinctive metal margin design. The visible metal collar effectively distributes occlusal forces, while its placement in posterior regions minimizes aesthetic concerns.
Beyond patient benefits, metal collar dental crowns offer unique advantages for dental practitioners. Unlike standard PFM restorations, the visible metal margin design enables immediate identification and assessment. When patients return for follow-up care or additional treatment, this distinctive feature allows clinicians to quickly recognize the restoration type and evaluate its condition, facilitating more efficient clinical decision-making and patient care.
Since our establishment in 2012, Istar has been committed to producing high-quality, reliable dental restorations. We now partner with dental practices across more than 30 countries and regions, supporting dentists in delivering excellent restoration outcomes for their patients.
At Istar, each metal collar PFM crown represents a perfect fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern technology. During the model preparation phase, our experienced technicians perform precise margin refinement and shoulder preparation, ensuring perfect adaptation of the metal collar. Every detail undergoes meticulous measurement, with gingival margins and shoulder depths strictly following international standards. In the wax pattern design stage, our temperature-controlled process maintains ideal metal collar thickness, providing a solid foundation for the subsequent porcelain layering. Throughout the quality control process, each metal collar dental crown undergoes multiple rigorous inspection procedures. From marginal fit to metal collar integrity and overall dimensional accuracy, every restoration must pass our professional quality control team’s strict verification before proceeding to the next production stage.
