Zirconia Crowns

One of the crown types applied to the teeth is zirconium-based crowns. On the periodical table, zirconium is classified as a white metal and a material used in dentistry as zirconium dioxide (zirconia). The crown can be fully zirconium-based, or only the infrastructure is zirconium, and the crown can be processed ceramic on zirconium.

An Aesthetic Look

Zirconium-based materials have a structure that imitates and resembles natural teeth. Their natural appearances create excellent aesthetic results in the mouth. At the same time, owing to their opaque structure, they prevent the reflection of dark color on the darkened teeth. A light-colored crown covers the dark-colored tooth and the patient and dentist's satisfaction to the maximum level. Thanks to the ceramic and transparent layer processed on the zirconium infrastructure, maximum light permeability is provided. Therefore, the transparency and light permeability of the natural teeth are maintained, and aesthetic looks are brought to the desired level. Thanks to smile designs, zirconium veneers can be made to suit the patient's face shape and skin color, and they can also be in color and form according to the patient's request.

Bio-Compatibility

Zirconium is a tissue-friendly material. High-quality zirconium is compatible with soft tissue and provides maximum soft tissue compatibility, called pink aesthetic. Compared to the classic nickel-cobalt-based metal fused crown applications, it causes fewer and rarely seen allergic reactions.

Resistance

Zirconium infrastructures are materials resistant to breaking and cracking. Zirconium is a rigid material, also resistant to wear, and allows long-term use by the patient.

Metal-free

Unlike porcelain fused metal (PFM) crowns and bridgework, a dark reflection of metal at the gum line is not observed in zirconium crowns. As a result, they are much more aesthetic.

Due to biocompatibility and high aesthetic results, we frequently do zirconium crowns and prosthetic structures in our country. We offer our patients digital clinics and laboratory facilities indispensable for modern dentistry and have become widespread in Turkey. With the convenience and advantages of digital dentistry, we perform treatments with high aesthetic results, focused on the patient's satisfaction at our clinic. With the opportunities provided by digital dentistry, zirconium-based crowns and bridgework treatment services are offered to our patients in a shorter time and on more affordable budgets compared with conventional methods.

It is important to remember that the zirconium-based crowns and bridgework applications' indication should be done by the doctor. Generally, the necessity of zirconium crowns/bridgework appears under these circumstances:

• Excessive material loss due to tooth decay, trauma, and hereditary reasons.

• Excessively worn teeth.

• Discoloration.

• Zirconium-based bridgework to cover the lacking teeth.

• Prosthetic structures on the implants.

• Zirconium crowns are available for patients with excessive bone loss due to periodontal illnesses and patients with extreme gum recession that affects the appearance negatively after the periodontal treatment.

Yes. After the zirconium application, we apply 5 years of guarantee policy to our patients who follow the dentist's advice. Read more about our guarantee policy.

It is the healthiest if full mouth zirconium treatments take place minimum within 7-10 days.
