About metal crown

A metal dental crown (or porcelain-fused-to-metal/PFM crown) is a cap that covers a damaged tooth entirely, restoring its shape, size, and strength. Metal crowns are made from alloys containing gold, nickel, or chromium. PFM crowns have a metal base with a porcelain exterior for a more natural appearance.

Is a metal crown better than ceramic?
