The Amalgam (Silver Filling) “Controversy”: Replacement of large failing amalgam with full coverage porcelain and Porcelain Fused-to-Metal Crowns. When teeth display a combination of cracks, fractures, failing restorations, and large filling materials placed “beyond the limits of the material,” the most reliable restorative and cosmetic alternative is a full coverage porcelain crown, These crowns may be cast porcelain or porcelain fused-to-metal. The advantages are function, longevity and cosmetics; while the disadvantages are tooth reduction and high cost.
