Question 1

Which lasts longer: porcelain or composite?

Accepted Answer

Porcelain lasts longer. Well made and well cared for, it can stay in place for 10 to 20 years. Composite typically requires more maintenance and has a shorter usable life.

Question 2

Which looks more natural?

Accepted Answer

Optically, porcelain usually imitates the translucency of enamel better. That said, a good composite that is correctly indicated can look very good. The point is not only the material, but knowing when each one is the right call.

Question 3

Is composite always the cheap option?

Accepted Answer

It has a lower entry figure, but it is not always the better long-term investment. If the goal is maximum stability and refinement, porcelain usually justifies the difference.

Question 4

Which is better for a complete smile?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the case and on the level of aesthetic demand. For more stable and sophisticated transformations, porcelain is usually the better choice. For targeted adjustments or more limited treatments, composite can make a lot of sense.
