3. Advantages and disadvantages
Advantages:
High aesthetics: Natural color, nearly identical to the real teeth due to the porcelain layer, ensuring cosmetic after restoration.
High durability: Good force-resistant like real teeth, can chew, bite like normally due to the titanium body.
Reasonable cost: 1,500,000 VND/tooth.
Time saving: The performance time of 3 appointments lasts 3-5 days.
Disadvantages:
