Porcelain teeth have been installed for more than a year. Why is the gum edge still black?
It will always be like this. It's metal ions oozing out.

The purpose of gold-plated porcelain teeth is to prevent the pollution of nickel-chromium metal to the body. After the porcelain crown is made, a layer of gold is plated on the exposed metal. 、

This is one of the simplest protective measures and can play a certain role.

However, gold plating can not solve the problem that the overall color of porcelain crown is slightly gray.

If your financial strength allows, it is definitely worthwhile to add some money to the inner crown metal. 800 yuan is a bit expensive. I think it is more appropriate not to surpass 600 yuan.

Compared with titanium alloy porcelain teeth

1。 Fake titanium alloys are much more than real ones, and they can't be identified by ordinary methods: gold plating can be identified by naked eyes.

2。 The role of titanium alloy in preventing gingival blackening is not very effective, and its content is relatively low (4%-6%). Coupled with the volatilization during casting, metal ions (nickel) will diffuse into the gums, eventually blackening the gums; Gold plating because the metal does not directly contact the gums, metal ions will not spread to the gums.

3。 Gold-plated porcelain teeth are simple to make. Buy a gold-plated instrument that ordinary people can operate. The cost is also lower, but due to the promotion (high profit) of domestic processing plants and TILITE company (dentists get the latest information mostly through processing plants), titanium alloy has become so noble, and the fees of dentists have also gone up, and no one has done gold plating.

Will the gold in gilded porcelain be worn away by brushing your teeth?

The main function of gold plating is gold plating on the inner crown, and gold plating on the lingual side is mainly beautiful, but brushing your teeth inside the inner crown is unattainable. As long as the shoulders are tightly closed, they will not be damaged by brushing their teeth.
