Zirconia Dental Crown

Zirconia Dental Crown

Zirconia is a metal-free, biocompatible ceramic substructure material with high durability. A zirconia dental crown is a type of crown applied to teeth that have suffered significant loss of material, show colour changes, or need aesthetic renewal.

Advantages of Zirconia Crowns
  • Light transmission close to a natural tooth appearance
  • High fracture resistance
  • Compatible with the gum, does not create a dark line
  • Carries no allergic reaction risk, as it is metal-free
Stages of the Procedure

Treatment consists of tooth reduction and preparation, taking an impression, protection with a temporary crown, laboratory production of the zirconia substructure using CAD/CAM technology, and finally a try-in in the mouth followed by cementation (bonding). It has a wide range of uses, from single-tooth crowns to bridge dentures and implant-supported crowns.

How Is It Cared For?

Caring for zirconia crowns is no different from caring for natural teeth; regular brushing, flossing and periodic dental check-ups are sufficient.

Patients from Mardin and its districts: In addition to central Mardin, we also provide zirconia crown treatment to patients coming from Kızıltepe and Midyat. At Özel Astro Dent Oral and Dental Health Clinic, we organise your examination, impression and cementation sessions to best suit your schedule by planning appointments in advance.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many sessions does a zirconia crown take?

It generally takes 2-3 sessions (impression, try-in, cementation); laboratory production time passes between sessions.

How long does a zirconia crown last?

With proper care and regular check-ups it can be used trouble-free for 10-15 years or longer.

Does a zirconia crown discolour the gum?

No, since it is metal-free it does not cause darkening or a grey colour at the gumline.

What is the difference between zirconia and porcelain crowns?

A zirconia substructure offers higher mechanical strength, while porcelain stands out for its natural light transmission; the dentist recommends the most suitable option based on the tooth's position.
