Zirconium Crowns
Do weak or broken teeth cause you discomfort and take the shine off your smile? Zirconium crowns are a strong, metal-free solution that Lavi Clinic offers to restore the natural beauty and function of your teeth and give them lasting support.
What are zirconium crowns?
Zirconium crowns are custom-made, tooth-shaped restorations that cover weak or broken teeth. They are made of zirconium dioxide (zirconia), a very strong, tooth-coloured ceramic that contains no metal. A crown encloses the whole tooth, protects it and restores its original size, strength and appearance.
Which problems do zirconium crowns solve?
Zirconium crowns are a flexible treatment for many dental problems: severely decayed, chipped or cracked teeth and teeth that have had root canal treatment. They are also used to cover dental implants and to support dental bridges as part of a complete smile makeover. Because zirconia is so strong, they are suitable for both front and back teeth.
A natural-looking result
Zirconium crowns are made to match the colour and shape of your natural teeth. Because they contain no metal, light passes through them much as it does through a natural tooth, and no dark line appears at the gum. They are very hard to tell apart from the teeth around them.
A treatment tailored to you
The treatment is planned around your individual needs. Our dentist carries out a thorough examination, discusses your concerns with you and prepares a personalised treatment plan.
Comfort and durability
Zirconium crowns give damaged teeth stability and support, which reduces discomfort and improves function. Zirconia is highly resistant to chipping and wear and is well tolerated by the gums, which also makes it a good option for patients with metal sensitivities. With the right care, zirconium crowns last for many years.
The procedure
A zirconium crown usually takes two appointments.
- First visit: The dentist removes any decay and shapes the tooth to receive the crown. An impression is taken and a temporary crown is fitted while the final one is made.
- Second visit: The permanent crown is bonded to the prepared tooth, with a precise fit and a seamless look.
A confident, beautiful smile
Crowns restore the function of your teeth and improve the look of your smile. Your confidence returns and you can smile freely in every part of your life.
A lasting investment in your oral health
Crowns are an investment in the long-term health and beauty of your smile. By protecting damaged teeth, they prevent further deterioration and even tooth loss.
