Zirconium Dental Veneers
Zirconium is a metal that resists corrosion and is extremely durable. Its use in dental treatment for many years has made it a popular choice for many users. Zirconium metal is first processed in a furnace to form zirconia ceramic. This white form makes it suitable for use in dental treatments. Zirconium crowns are available in two types: metal-supported and unsupported.
How is Zirconium Coating Made?
After determining your needs and following your dentist's recommendations, you can have a zirconium crown. This procedure is similar to a fixed prosthesis. First, the tooth is reduced in size, as is done with a metal-supported crown. After this stage, the gums are allowed to heal.
Then, using specialized measurement methods and 3D devices, impressions of the teeth and oral cavity are taken. These impressions are converted into a zirconium block and computer-aided analysis, after which the zirconium substructure is completed. In a laboratory setting, the zirconium substructure, which is the most suitable shade for the tooth used, is processed. The porcelain superstructure is then applied to it, and its compatibility is tested. This process is crucial for ensuring a perfect fit with the oral cavity and tooth structure. Therefore, meticulous care is taken. In the final stage, the zirconium is completely integrated into the tooth using special adhesives that do not pose any threat to oral health.
Once the adaptation process is complete, there will be no visible difference between the patient's original teeth and the implant. Because local anesthesia is used throughout the entire procedure, you can experience painless treatment and have the veneer placed with peace of mind.

Why is Zirconium Crown Preferred?
Zirconium crowns are favored by many dentists for their durability and are also a popular choice for users due to their aesthetic appeal. This method is used for broken, cut, or misshapen teeth, as well as crooked or spaced teeth, when orthodontic treatment is not an option. It is also used for crowning and revising teeth that are too damaged to be filled, making it a popular choice for both dentists and users.
Additionally, Emax Veneer, like a veneer application method, allows you to achieve an aesthetically pleasing smile. Because it doesn't undergo discoloration, it's a preferred method for discolored or yellowed fillings. Furthermore, because it's a durable metal, it can be used not only on front teeth but also as veneers or bridges on back teeth. Zirconium veneers can be used in implant-supported dentures and are also preferred by many users for smile aesthetics. Furthermore, because it's a natural metal, it allows for healthy use without causing allergic reactions.
What are the advantages of zirconium coatings?
Zirconium veneers, a popular choice among many dental professionals, are a popular choice for smile aesthetics. Zirconium veneers are often used to cover teeth that have discolored after teeth whitening, and offer numerous advantages. This veneer, often favored by dentists for Hollywood smile design, is a popular choice for nearly everyone. Another advantage is that zirconium eliminates the bruising that can occur with all gum diseases. Because it doesn't contain any heavy metals, it doesn't cause allergic reactions. Therefore, it's a safe option even for those with sensitive gums. Its thermal insulation properties prevent sensitivity to hot and cold.
For teeth where orthodontic treatment is not possible, especially those that are spaced apart or crooked, zirconium can be used, as can a veneer method like Emax Veneer. Its robust structure makes it suitable for veneering back teeth, while its aesthetic appeal makes it suitable for veneering front teeth. This method is also preferred for treating advanced and hereditary discoloration, and can be used to replace old fillings that have become discolored or discolored. Its low light transmittance allows it to appear as close to natural teeth as possible, making it virtually indistinguishable from your original teeth.
How long does a zirconium tooth last?
Zirconium teeth are a highly durable, long-lasting, and strong material. Therefore, the lifespan of zirconium teeth can vary depending on how you care for your teeth and their overall health. However, zirconium teeth generally last longer than many potential dental problems, which can be prevented by taking care of your teeth regularly and visiting your dentist. Therefore, the lifespan of zirconium teeth can be extended by taking care of them.
Zirconium Dental Veneers FAQ
Q: What are zirconia crowns? A: Zirconium is a white, highly durable material used in dentistry, providing an alternative to metal as a foundation. Unlike metal-backed crowns, its white foundation allows light to pass through, providing a much more aesthetically pleasing, natural appearance.
Q: What's the difference between metal-backed porcelain and porcelain? Which is better? A: The biggest difference is aesthetics. Zirconium lacks the gray reflection of metal, so it doesn't create a dark line at the gum line. Furthermore, zirconium is 100% biocompatible with the gum, doesn't cause allergies, and is healthier. Aesthetically, zirconium is far superior.
Q: Are zirconium crowns durable? Can they be used on back teeth? A: Yes, zirconium is an extremely durable material that can withstand very high chewing pressure. Therefore, it can be safely used on both cosmetic front teeth and chewing back teeth (including bridges).
