Zirconium Crowns

Zirconium is one of the most preferred materials in dental aesthetic treatments. This is due to its exceptional aesthetic properties. Zirconium porcelain teeth exhibit a texture very close to natural teeth, in addition to their ability to allow light to pass through. Zirconium porcelain teeth are a white alloy structure preferred over the traditional components of gray metal used in conventional prostheses and bridge teeth.

Zirconium-based porcelain teeth are used for aesthetic purposes. They are also chosen for cases of discoloration that cannot be achieved through teeth whitening procedures. Zirconium can be used in hereditary structural treatments, for cases like diastema (gaps between teeth) or misaligned teeth, as well as teeth with alterations in shape and color, compromised structural integrity, worn-out filling teeth, and posterior group teeth. In the anterior group, zirconium porcelain teeth, which can be used after implant-supported prosthesis treatments, are also preferred in smile aesthetic treatments.

What are the advantages of Zirconium Porcelain coatings?

Zirconium porcelain teeth, which have a very good compatibility with the gums and mouth compared to the metals used in traditional porcelain tooth structures, offer many advantages:

  • Compared to metals used in classic porcelain teeth, zirconium porcelain teeth appear more vibrant.
  • They have a high level of durability compared to other porcelain teeth.
  • They do not create sensitivity to hot and cold.
  • They do not cause problems like gum recession.
  • Since they do not contain metal, zirconium porcelain tooth coatings are also a suitable treatment method for patients with allergies to metal.
  • They do not cause bad breath or taste changes in the mouth.
  • Zirconium teeth also provide an advantage in terms of color change. Thanks to their smooth porcelain surface, they are effective against plaque buildup and discoloration even in coloring foods and beverages like coffee, cigarettes, and tea.
  • Despite being durable, they are also delicate tooth structures that can allow light to pass through. In modern dentistry, zirconium porcelain teeth are successful dental treatments applied using the most effective material in this field.

How is the treatment of Zirconium Porcelain teeth applied?

The first stage in porcelain tooth treatment is generally measuring the tooth and preparing it for the operation in an appropriate form. In the laboratory phase, zirconium porcelain teeth are designed using computer-supported machines. Developed in the laboratory environment in a form suitable for the natural color of the tooth, zirconium porcelain coating teeth are adapted to the tooth in the clinical environment. Through adhesives specially used for the application, they are adapted to the tooth, and you can use your coatings as comfortably as your natural teeth without even noticing the difference.
