contents Primordial black holes (PBHs) are widely considered as candidates for dark matter in many recent studies, and they are often modeled as Schwarzschild or Kerr black holes (BHs), which have curvature singularities. Nevertheless, resolving the classical singularity may require quantum gravity motivated corrections, thereby yielding an effective quantum corrected BH spacetime geometry different from the Schwarzschild or Kerr cases. Therefore, it is well motivated to consider BHs beyond the Schwarzschild or Kerr as viable PBH candidates. Based on these considerations, we investigate quantum Oppenheimer Snyder BHs as PBHs which could account for all the dark matter. Our results show that these BHs have temperatures and greybody factors markedly different from the Schwarzschild case, suppressing Hawking emission and thereby relaxing the $γ$-ray constraints from HEAO-1, COMPTEL, and EGRET, which, relative to the Schwarzschild case, broadens the allowed PBH mass window in the asteroid-mass range where PBHs can constitute all of the dark matter.
