PFM crowns typically last between 10 to 15 years, but can last longer with good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups.

PFM crowns are designed to blend with your natural teeth, though the porcelain may sometimes not perfectly match the rest of your teeth in terms of translucency.

Care for a PFM crown as you would your natural teeth, with regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups. Avoid chewing hard foods directly with the crown to prevent damage.
