Zirconia and ceramic crowns and bridges
Dental medicine Tarle
For damaged, weakened, or non-vital teeth, crowns are used to restore their shape and function while protecting the remaining tooth structure. Zirconia and all-ceramic materials allow crowns and bridges to be made without a metal framework.
Materials and Properties
Modern ceramic and zirconia materials provide a natural appearance for prosthetic restorations, along with the properties required for everyday function.
Their key characteristics include:
- transparency and translucency
- color stability
- wear resistance
- excellent aesthetics
- easy maintenance
Crowns and Bridges
A crown can be used to protect a weakened or non-vital tooth and restore its shape and function. Bridges are used to replace one or more missing teeth, depending on the condition of the surrounding teeth and other clinical factors.
The choice of material and type of prosthetic restoration is determined according to the condition of the teeth, functional requirements, and aesthetic needs of each patient.
