PMMA Crowns
Temporary. Natural-Looking. Budget-Friendly.
Need a short-term dental solution while waiting for your final crown or bridge? PMMA crowns are aesthetic, durable temporary restorations that keep your smile looking great and functioning comfortably during your treatment process.
What Are PMMA Crowns?
PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) crowns are high-quality acrylic temporaries used while your permanent restorations are being custom-made. Whether you're undergoing cosmetic work, full-mouth rehab, or implant treatment, PMMA crowns offer a safe and attractive way to protect your teeth in the meantime.
Key Benefits of PMMA Crowns:
Short-Term Use, Long-Term Confidence
Used for weeks to months while permanent crowns or bridges are in fabrication
Maintain your ability to chew, smile, and speak normally during treatment
Natural Aesthetics
Smooth, tooth-like appearance
Custom-shaped and shaded to blend seamlessly with your smile
Reliable Strength for Everyday Use
Durable enough for daily wear in low- to moderate-stress areas
Suitable for single crowns, temporary bridges, and implant-supported provisionals
Cost-Effective & Convenient
More affordable than permanent materials
Ideal for budget-conscious patients and complex, multi-stage treatments
Easy to Customize
