Definition
A ceramic is a material that is neither metallic nor organic. It may be crystalline, glassy or both. Ceramics are typically hard and chemically non-reactive and can be formed or densified with heat.

Metallic restorations absorb x-rays, and as a result, very little (if any) radiation comes in contact with the receptor.
Consequently, that area of the receptor remains unexposed, and the metallic restorations appear completely radiopaque (light or white) on a dental image.
-
Gold restorations appear completely radiopaque and, unlike amalgam restorations, exhibit a smooth marginal outline
appear radiopaque, but not as densely radiopaque as amalgam or gold.
