PROCEDURES OF ZIRCONIA IN RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY
Zirconia is used in various applications in restorative dentistry. One of the primary applications of zirconia is in the fabrication of crowns and bridges. Zirconia crowns and bridges are biocompatible, durable, and have excellent esthetics. They are ideal for restoring damaged or missing teeth, and they can last for many years with proper care.
Another application of zirconia is in the fabrication of dental implants. Zirconia dental implants are biocompatible, and they can integrate well with the jawbone. They are an excellent alternative to titanium implants, especially for patients who have metal allergies.
Zirconia is also used in the fabrication of inlays, onlays, and veneers. These restorations are used to restore teeth that have been damaged due to decay or trauma. Zirconia restorations are durable, and they can last for many years with proper care.
RESTORATIVE USES OF ZIRCONIA
Zirconia has a variety of restorative uses, including full crown coverage, multi-unit bridges, frameworks for porcelain-fused-to-zirconia crowns and bridges, and even veneers.
TYPES OF ZIRCONIA CROWNS
Full Contour Zirconia
Full-contour zirconia is known for its superior strength and is best suited for patients with a heavy bite, bruxism, or heavy canine guidance.
Full Contour All-Translucent Zirconia
A full-contour translucent zirconia crown is more suited for areas that need to be visually pleasing but are subjected to far fewer biting and grinding forces.
WHY CHOOSE ZIRCONIUM CROWNS?
Zirconium crowns have a number of benefits for patients, including:
- Natural-looking appearance: Mimic the translucency of natural teeth and reflect light like enamel.
- Customizable: Match any shade, shape, and size to fit with the rest of your teeth.
- Aesthetics: Closely resemble natural teeth in both appearance and texture.
- Biocompatible: Unlikely to cause adverse effects or allergic reactions.
- Durable and strong: Tolerate biting forces well and resist wear and chipping.
- Comfort: Comfortable to wear without sensitivity or discomfort.
- Longevity: Long-lasting with proper care and maintenance.
- Hypersensitivity reduction: Low electrical conductivity helps reduce hot/cold sensitivity.
- Minimally invasive: Require less tooth removal than some other crowns.
- Gum-friendly: Do not release ions that may discolour gingiva.
- Non-allergic material: Avoids corrosion issues seen with some metal-fused porcelains.
ZIRCONIUM CROWN PROCEDURE
Consultation
The first step is a consultation with a cosmetic dentist. The dentist examines your teeth, discusses goals and expectations, and creates a customized treatment plan.
Preparation
After planning, the dentist prepares the teeth by removing a small amount of enamel to ensure the crowns fit comfortably and securely.
Impression
An impression (often via digital imaging/3D model) is taken to fabricate precise zirconium crowns.
Crown Fabrication
Impressions are sent to a dental laboratory where the zirconium crowns are fabricated. This may take several weeks.
Temporary Crowns
Temporary crowns may be placed to protect teeth and maintain your smile while waiting for the permanent crowns.
Crown Placement
Once ready, the permanent crowns are carefully placed and adjusted for a comfortable, secure fit.
