Full Cast Metal crowns are crafted entirely from high-quality dental alloys, offering superior mechanical strength and excellent resistance to heavy biting forces, making them especially ideal for posterior restorations. At XCV, all our metal crowns are custom-designed using advanced digital CAD/CAM technology to ensure a precise fit, and minimize chairside adjustments.
- Not recommended for anterior restorations where high aesthetics are required.
- Not indicated for patients with known sensitivities to specific metals.
Not recommended for crowns, bridges, or veneers in the aesthetic zone due to the material's opacity
• Occlusal/Incisal Reduction: 1.5 mm
• Facial/Lingual Reduction: 1.2 mm
• Cervical Reduction: 1.0 mm; however, a knife-edge margin preparation is acceptable.
• Contains at least 60% precious metals, including palladium and platinum, with no gold
• The gold standard for long-term restorations
• Margins remain intact – no chipping or fracturing
• Thermal expansion coefficient similar to enamel – minimizes occlusal stress
• Excellent biocompatibility and corrosion resistance
• Contains at least 60% noble metals (palladium, platinum), no gold content
• Silvery-white color – easy to blend with adjacent PFM or zirconia crowns
• Superior corrosion resistance – ideal for sensitive oral environments
• Excellent biocompatibility and long-lasting performance
• Contains a small amount of gold or palladium
• Better oxidation resistance than non-precious alloys
• Higher biocompatibility – reduces allergic reactions
• Balanced durability and affordability
• Cobalt-chromium or nickel-chromium base metals, no noble content
• High strength – ideal for long-span bridges or posterior crowns
• Cost-effective solution for temporary or permanent restorations
• Strong performance under heavy bite forces
