Solid zirconia

  • As the name suggests solid zirconia is tougher compared to high translucent zirconia. It can withstand chewing forces as well as bruxism forces better.
  • Solid zirconia also suits root canal treated teeth, by offering stronger support to weak teeth.
  • As it’s opaque, it’s more suited for posterior/ back teeth.

High translucent zirconia

  • This is a type of zirconia which gives you superior looks that exactly resemble your natural teeth. It is more suited for anterior/ front teeth.
  • Though it is superior in looks, its strength is higher than PFM/ Porcelain Fused to Metal bridges.
  • If you need extensive orthodontic treatment to correct the alignment of your teeth, your dentist may not prefer high translucent zirconia.

Advantages of Zirconium Crown

Zirconium is becoming one of the most chosen materials for dental crowns. Its many advantages include:

  • Superior looks: as zirconia is white naturally, it allows the transformations to any shade which match with the rest of your teeth. Zirconia is translucent, thus, it mimics the translucency of your natural teeth.
  • More confident smile: zirconia has no metal lining at the gums. Porcelain Fused to metal crowns/ PFM  were popular earlier, however, they have a metal layer underneath the porcelain layer which is on top of the crown. This fusion/ metal lining is visible usually at the gum line. This is more evident when you smile. Zirconia crowns help you get over this and boost your confidence. You can also give zirconia any shape/ size to match the rest of your teeth.
  • 100% biocompatible: no zirconia crown allergy has been reported so far.
  • Extraordinarily tough: zirconia is the strongest crown, it can withstand wear and tear. It does not chip off, unlike porcelain. If you maintain it well, it can stay in your mouth forever. It is at least five times stronger than porcelain or porcelain fused to metal/ PFM. It also tolerates chewing or biting forces well. It has a very high flexural strength: zirconia has a flexural strength of 1200 MPa. (Flexural strength is the force that your crown tolerates.)
  • They bond well with your tooth: zirconia crowns adhere well to your tooth. One of the reasons why PFM crowns were the preferred choice is that the metal surface bonds well with the tooth and holds the crown in place. Zirconia also has this property. These crowns require less tooth removal than many other types of dental crowns.
  • Metal free: many people used to prefer gold crowns because of their excellent physical properties. However, now since looks are more important to people, they want to look natural and young. Some people also don’t like having metals in their body. Zirconia is most suited for them.

Zirconia crown

The fact that this material is biocompatible means that it is safe to stay within your mouth for a long time. There is no need to worry about any adverse / allergic reactions from your body because it is not rejected by the human body.

Owing to their excellent aesthetic qualities and strength, zirconia crowns are the crowns of choice in the aesthetic and lateral dental region. They are intended for all those who want a perfect smile and immaculate mastication.

What are their advantages as compared to other Types Of Crowns?

The advantage of zirconia crowns is that they perfectly imitate natural teeth. They are long-lasting and resistant to mechanical force generated during chewing. Unlike metal ceramic crowns, for which it is necessary to remove a lot of tooth substance, zirconia crowns require only a small quantity of tooth substance to be removed. Metal ceramic crowns comprise two layers and two materials, whereas zirconia crowns consist of one layer, which enables maximum protection of your teeth.

What does the procedure of manufacturing Crowns look like?

At Zirconium Center, the crown manufacturing procedure is pain-free, fast and simple. At the beginning, teeth are prepared for crowns- in other words, 0.5 – 1mm of enamel is removed from all tooth surfaces. Our aim is to protect your teeth to the maximum, at the same time improving your smile. Zirconia crowns are made completely digitally, with the assistance of computer design and machines processing zirconia itself. Therefore, there is almost no possibility of making a mistake. When this crown manufacturing method is combined with digital technologies applied in our dental studio, the result is a perfectly precise crown or bridge of high aesthetic value.

What is a Zirconia Bridge?

A dental bridge is a structure in which a false tooth and two crowns are attached to a metal base which acts as a replacement for missing teeth.

The false tooth sits in the gap and is flanked by the two crowns which fit over the natural teeth on each side of the gap. In other words, it ‘bridges’ the gap in your teeth.

A zirconia bridge is different in that it is produced from Zirconium oxide – a tough form of dental ceramic which is also compatible with the body. This means that the body will not reject or react in a negative way to the bridge.

This is a problem with metal based bridges as there are people who have an allergy to the metals used in the bridge.

A zirconia bridge has a translucent appearance and is an ideal match with the rest of your teeth.

Advantages of a Zirconia Bridge

The main advantages are a strong, stable and great looking bridge which blends in well with the rest of your teeth. Plus the material used to fabricate this bridge is ‘biocompatible’ which means that is kind to living tissue within your body and will not cause any ill effects, e.g. an allergic reaction.

Less preparation is needed which refers to the process you undergo before the crown is fitted. Your dentist reshapes the tooth, removing a tiny sliver which enables a better fit between crown and tooth. But minimal tooth reduction is required for a zirconia crown.

Plus there is no metal base within this bridge which means no ugly looking black line at the edge of the gums which is a common feature of metal ceramic bridges. This is good news from an aesthetic point of view as many people prefer to wear a bridge whose crowns closely match the colour of their natural teeth.

Disadvantages of a Zirconia Bridge

The advantages of a zirconia bridge have been discussed but are there any disadvantages of this type of bridge?

Cost is one issue as this type of bridge may be more expensive than the standard metal ceramic bridge. This means shopping around to find the most suitable (and affordable) bridge for you. But do not be guided by price alone as it is important that you choose a bridge which is best suited to your teeth.

Ceramic is a tough, long lasting material but what can happen is that the surface of the crowns become rough which then rubs against natural teeth. This causes them to become worn down and less effective than before.

One problem with all ceramic bridges is that they can be less resistant to stress or extra forces, e.g. biting compared to metal ceramic bridges. There is an increased risk of chipping or a fracture as a result of this although the newer varieties have a stronger inner structure.

How is a Zirconia Bridge fitted?

The process for this is the same as for any other type of bridge. Your dentist will assess the current state of your teeth before discussing the pros and cons of the treatment with you.

If you are considered a good candidate for a zirconia bridge then he/she will prepare your teeth for this bridge. The preparation stage is part of a two stage procedure which includes taking an impression of the affected teeth along with supporting x-rays.

It also includes what is known as ‘tooth reduction’ in which the dentist trims the affected teeth with a small drill so that it will enable the crowns to fit over the top.

These are all used in the fabrication of your zirconia bridge. They are sent to a dental laboratory that produces your bridge over a period of two to three weeks.

During this time you will be given a temporary bridge to wear. Once your new bridge has been made you will return for the fitting. Your dentist will fit the new bridge and check that it is a correct fit before cementing it in place.
