Get a Perfect Smile
With Zirconium Crowns

Zirconia crowns are highly aesthetic and long-lasting dental restorations used to cover damaged or weakened teeth.

Made from zirconia, an advanced ceramic material, they offer excellent strength and biocompatibility, making them an ideal choice for back teeth, where greater strength is required, as well as for front teeth, due to their natural appearance.

Their ability to adapt to the shape and colour of natural teeth ensures a nearly invisible and functional restoration. This treatment is suitable for patients looking for a long-lasting, aesthetic and comfortable solution.

Would you like to know why zirconia crowns are the most advanced and long-lasting option to restore your smile?

Zirconia crowns are incredibly resistant to fracture and wear, and thanks to their natural appearance, they provide an aesthetic restoration for both front and back teeth. They are the ideal choice for those looking for a long-lasting and attractive solution.

What are the benefits of zirconia crowns?

Zirconia crowns offer high resistance to fracture and wear, making them an ideal choice for back teeth. Additionally, their natural appearance and ability to mimic the color and texture of teeth make them perfect for aesthetic restorations on front teeth.

How long do zirconia crowns last?

Zirconia crowns are highly durable and can last between 10 and 15 years, depending on the patient’s oral care and lifestyle. Being a durable material, they offer a long-term solution to restore damaged teeth without the need for frequent replacements.

Do zirconia crowns require more care than porcelain crowns?

Zirconia crowns require similar care as natural teeth, such as good dental hygiene and regular visits to the dentist.
