Zirconium crowns are advanced, metal-free dental restorations made from zirconia, a strong ceramic material known for its durability, biocompatibility, and natural appearance. They are widely used in both cosmetic and restorative dentistry due to their strength and aesthetic appeal.
At Medixir Clinic, zirconium crowns are one of our most requested solutions for restoring damaged, decayed, or aesthetically compromised teeth. They offer a perfect combination of function and beauty, making them ideal for both front and back teeth.
Zirconium crowns are milled from solid blocks of zirconia using CAD/CAM technology, ensuring precise fit, consistency, and structural integrity. Unlike traditional porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crowns, zirconia does not contain any metal, which eliminates the risk of allergic reactions or gum discoloration.
One of the standout features of zirconium is its high fracture resistance. This makes zirconium crowns particularly suitable for patients who clench or grind their teeth (bruxism), as they withstand strong biting forces without cracking.
The treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation, digital imaging, and smile design. After preparing the tooth, a digital impression is taken and sent to our in-house lab, where your crown is custom-crafted to match your natural teeth in color and shape.
Zirconium crowns are bonded to the tooth using strong dental cement, creating a seamless and stable restoration. They blend beautifully with your smile and reflect light in a way that mimics natural enamel.
These crowns are also known for their biocompatibility. Zirconia is non-toxic and does not cause adverse reactions with soft tissues. It promotes healthy gums and is safe for patients with sensitivities to metal.
Zirconium crowns can last over a decade with proper oral hygiene and care. They resist stains, wear, and temperature changes, making them a reliable long-term solution.
Whether used as part of a single tooth restoration or a full smile makeover, zirconium crowns enhance both the aesthetics and function of your teeth. They can be combined with veneers or implants for complete dental transformations.
At Medixir Clinic, we combine the latest dental technologies with artistic craftsmanship to deliver zirconium crowns that not only restore but elevate your smile. Each crown is carefully designed to meet your unique facial anatomy, bite, and aesthetic goals.
