Zirconia Crowns
Zirconia is a metal-free framework material used in crowns and bridges. Because it transmits light in a way close to a natural tooth, it is particularly preferred for aesthetics in the front region.
Why zirconia?
With metal-supported crowns, a grey appearance can develop at the gum margin over time. Because a zirconia framework contains no metal, this does not occur.
The light transmission of the material is close to that of a natural tooth, which is why it is particularly preferred for teeth visible when smiling.
Stages of treatment
The treatment is usually completed over a few appointments.
- Examination and shade selection
- Preparation of the tooth and taking an impression
- An interim period with a temporary crown
- Try-ins and final cementation
Questions about this treatment
How long do zirconia crowns last?
Their lifespan depends on oral hygiene, chewing habits, factors such as teeth grinding, and regular check-ups. Giving an individual figure is only possible after an examination.
Will there be sensitivity after a crown?
Temporary sensitivity may occur in the first few days. How this is managed and how long it may last is explained to you after treatment.
