Alumina Fixed Partial Denture

Alumina Fixed Partial Denture or all ceramic crown and bridge / restoration is significantly more esthetically pleasing than porcelain fused to metal (PFM) restorations.

All-ceramic substructure preserves the luminosity of the underlying remaining tooth resulting in more natural appearance, as compared to PFM crown and bridge.
