What are Dental (Zirconium) Crowns in Turkey?

When tooth coating is required, biologically compatible materials should be used in the mouth. After using plastic biodent material on metal for many years, the use of porcelain over metal became popular in the 1980s. Especially in the last 30 years, porcelain making on metal as a porcelain tooth coating has become widespread all over the world.

However, the metal under the porcelain sometimes causes allergic reactions in some people. Gingival bruising, which causes major aesthetic problems in the anterior tooth area, has also been one of the disadvantages of metal-based porcelain tooth coatings. For this reason, intensive studies were started on full ceramic reinforced porcelains in the 1990s. However, no matter how much the porcelain material is strengthened, the use of only ceramics, especially in dental bridge applications, has not yielded successful results without infrastructure material.

At this point, the use of zirconium material, which replaced the metal infrastructure, came into play and in a short time, the properties of the zirconium infrastructure were improved and almost as durable as metal and much more aesthetic infrastructure applications than metal could be made.

Zirconium is used as a substructure material in dental coatings that replace the upper part of the tooth that is visible in the mouth around the damaged teeth.

Dental crowns treated with porcelain on zirconium substructure are called zirconium tooth crowns today. When it comes to zirconium crowns in Turkey, zirconium crown crowns are expressed. While traditional porcelain crowns are attached to the teeth with metal support, durable and aesthetic dental veneers can be obtained with zirconium without metal.

How long will a zirconia crown last?

How long will a zirconia(dental) crown last?

Providing the patient submits to regular dental controls, zirconia crowns can last for many years. Natural teeth are living tissues, and may become deformed over time due to wear and infections, whereas zirconia crowns are resistant to change over time. However, changes of the mouth structure later in life may cause the zirconia crown to be adapted or replaced where necessary.

Will there be any damage to the underlying natural tooth in the event of the zirconia crown being replaced?

The patient will not feel any discomfort when the crown is removed, and there will be no loss of the natural underlying tooth tissue.

What are the aesthetic benefits of dental crowns?

Due to the light transmittance properties of the zirconia material the crown will have the same natural appearance of the patient’s existing natural teeth. Light passes through the enamel of healthy teeth, whereas, the metallic base of conventional porcelain crowns create an opaque, dull and artificial look to the teeth – zirconia crowns eliminate these aesthetic problems.

Can zirconia be used for those who are allergic to metals?

A zirconia crown does not contain any metal material, thus does not cause any allergic reactions.

Do zirconia crowns cause discoloration in future?

The polished and smooth surface of zirconia crowns does not allow for the accumulation of plaque, and neither does it allow for discolouration caused by tea, coffee and smoking.

Will zirconia affect the sense of taste or cause bad breath?

The use of zirconia will not cause any adverse effects to the mouth of the patient.

How is a zirconia crown attached?

The surface of the patient’s natural tooth is reduced very slightly. This may cause some swelling to the surrounding gum. When the swelling has reduced, a dental impression is taken. In our in-house laboratory, a zirconia base is produced matching the colour of the natural teeth. This is then given a fitting trial with the patient. Final adjustments are made, polishing takes place and the final result is permanently cemented into place. The patient can then use the zirconia crown as if it were their natural tooth.

Frequently Asked Questions

Zirconium crowns are dental restorations made from zirconium dioxide, a strong tooth-colored ceramic material used to cover and protect damaged or weakened teeth while restoring their appearance and function.

They are known for their high strength, durability, and natural appearance, making them suitable for both front and back teeth. Zirconia crowns are also metal-free and highly biocompatible, which reduces the risk of allergic reactions.

Dentists may recommend zirconium crowns for teeth that are cracked, severely decayed, discolored, or weakened after treatments such as root canal therapy. They can also be used to restore dental implants or improve smile aesthetics.

Zirconium crowns are made from zirconium dioxide, a highly durable ceramic material used in modern dentistry. This metal-free material is known for its strength, biocompatibility, and natural appearance, making it suitable for restoring both front and back teeth.

Yes, zirconium crowns are extremely strong and resistant to cracks or fractures, which makes them suitable for handling normal biting and chewing forces. Their durability is one of the main reasons they are widely used in modern dental restorations.
