Are you thinking something like composite or acryllic or maybe porcelain??

You may be thinking of feldspathic porcelain...It is an all natural porcelain that contains feldspar quartz..used alone it doesn't have a great deal of strength, but once it is either sintered to a gold framework or bonded to a tooth it is very strong and durable...

There are many things that match your description. A bonding agent must be used with any composite restoration or cement must be used with porcelain crowns -
