In the context of porcelain crowns, a substrate refers to the underlying material or structure to which the porcelain is applied. This substrate is typically made of metal, such as gold or a non-precious alloy, or it can be a ceramic material. The substrate provides strength and support for the crown, while the porcelain layer offers aesthetics and a natural appearance, mimicking the look of natural teeth. The combination ensures both durability and a pleasing visual result.

What is the different between anatomical crown and dental crown?

An anatomical crown is the visible part of a natural tooth, made up by dentin covered with enamel. A dental crown is a prosthetic crown crafted by a dental technician. A dental crown can be made as a full porcelain crown, but in most cases it is made by covering a metal cap with porcelain. The metal cap is used to give the tooth extra structural strength (especially in case of molar crowns) and can be made from metal alloy, gold alloy, or zirconium oxide (a mineral).
