Veneers need replacing bu unsure if metal crowns are best option?

Q. I have six veneers on my front teeth which are cracked and need replaceing They are 20 years old.My dentist recommeds metal porclein crowns for strenght but I am worried about the metal going black after time,
A. I would suggest you look at metal free (all-ceramic) crowns if crowns are advised. These are as strong as the metal bonded porcelain crowns now and look much more life-like
