Zirconium
Zirconium is a crown material that is frequently preferred due to its biological compatibility with the tissues around the teeth, instead of the gray metal that is the substructure of classic porcelain, bridges and prostheses, and its restorations are quite aesthetic.
Frequently asked questions?
What are the advantages of zirconium teeth?
The enamel of healthy teeth completely transmits light. Thanks to its light permeability, the image of natural teeth is fully captured. Metals, which are the substructures of classic porcelain coatings, exhibit an opaque appearance on the teeth. This causes the teeth to look lifeless and artificial. This has been prevented with zirconium. Since zirconium coatings do not contain metal, they do not cause metal allergies.
Will I have an aesthetic problem during zirconium treatment?
Temporary teeth are made to ensure the comfort of the person during the treatment. In this way, chewing, speaking and aesthetic needs are met until the restorations are completed.
Is it possible for zirconium to break or the coating to fall off?
Breakage and cracking may occur with excessive force, but this is almost the same as the probability of breaking a healthy tooth. It can be largely repaired in a laboratory environment. If the tooth under the crown has decayed or lost substance over time, it may fall out. In such cases, if possible, it is treated and the crown is reattached.
Is there any pain during the treatment?
Since local anesthesia is applied during the procedures, no pain is felt.
