If you are looking for a permanent and aesthetic solution for teeth that are worn, broken, or have lost their aesthetic appeal over time, then zirconium crown treatment is for you. Thanks to its strength and light-transmitting properties, zirconium offers both a natural-looking smile and long-lasting functionality.
What is a Dental Implant?
A zirconium crown is a type of dental crown (cap) that covers an entire tooth. Its substructure is made from a white, biocompatible material called zirconium dioxide, which is then layered with porcelain. Unlike traditional metal-supported crowns, zirconium crowns do not create a dark line at the gum line and mimic the translucency of a natural tooth, providing perfect aesthetics.
Who is a Candidate?
Suitable candidates for zirconium crown treatment generally have one of the following conditions:
Damaged or Broken Teeth: Ideal for restoring teeth that have lost significant substance due to decay, fractures, or trauma.
Excessive Discoloration: For individuals with deeply stained teeth that cannot be effectively whitened with other methods.
Replacement of Old Fillings: For those who want to replace large, unsightly old fillings.
Missing Teeth: Zirconium can be used as the substructure for a bridge to replace missing teeth.
Shape Irregularities: For individuals with aesthetic issues in the shape and size of their teeth.
Our expert dentists will evaluate the condition of your teeth during your initial consultation to determine the most suitable treatment plan for you.
Advantages
Perfect Aesthetics: Thanks to the light-transmitting properties of zirconium, the most natural-looking result is achieved.
Natural Gum Appearance: Since it is metal-free, no black or gray line forms at the gum line, which provides a healthier and more aesthetic appearance.
Durability and Strength: Zirconium is an extremely strong material that offers high resistance to chewing pressure, with a low risk of fracture.
Biocompatibility: It is a material that is perfectly compatible with the body and is a safe option for patients with metal allergies.
Stain Resistance: Its smooth surface is highly resistant to stains and is easy to clean.
Treatment and Recovery Process
Treatment Stages
Initial Examination and Planning: Your dentist will take an X-ray of your teeth and perform an oral examination. Your treatment plan and smile design will be created.
Tooth Preparation: Under local anesthesia, the tooth/teeth to be crowned are slightly reduced to prepare them for the zirconium crown. If your gums are healthy, there should be no bleeding at this stage.
Impression and Temporary Crown: An impression of the teeth is taken, and a temporary crown is prepared to be placed on your tooth on the same day.
Final Fitting and Application: The zirconium crowns prepared in the laboratory are fitted onto your teeth. After the final checks are made, they are permanently bonded to your tooth using special adhesives.
Recovery Process
Zirconium crown application is not a surgical procedure. You may experience some mild sensitivity in your teeth, but this usually disappears on its own within a few days. After the procedure, you can return to your normal eating and drinking habits.
