When you decide to enhance your smile, the material used is just as important as the dentist’s artistry. Many patients picture a radiant, flawless smile, but achieving a truly lifelike and durable result hinges on the quality of the dental porcelain used for your restorations.
Cheaper ceramics often look “too white” or opaque, missing the natural translucency of real teeth. Even worse, they can be quicker to stain over time, dulling the very smile you invested in.
The Problem with Low-Quality Porcelain
Opacity and staining are the two biggest pitfalls of subpar dental ceramics.
-
Opacity: Natural teeth are not flat white. They have a depth and translucency that lets light pass through and bounce off the underlying dentin. Low-quality porcelain stops light, creating a flat, “fake,” look that is an clear sign of dental work.
-
Staining: While porcelain is generally stain-resistant, lower-grade materials often have microscopic surface pits. This roughness can soak up stains from coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco, causing discoloration that polishing cannot fix.
Our Commitment to Excellence: Premium Material Selection
In our Westfield practice, Dr. Aristo Carranza will not compromise on quality. We don’t just choose porcelain; we carefully source specific, premium ceramics known for their superior performance.
We utilize advanced ceramics (like premium E.max or layered feldspathic porcelain) that are designed to:

-
Resist Staining: The advanced glazing and solid structure of our chosen materials create an ultra-smooth, non-porous surface that resists staining, keeping your smile vibrant for years.
-
Ensure Durability: High-grade porcelain offers fantastic durability, ensuring your smile is not only beautiful but also strong and durable.
