Zirconia Crowns
A zirconia crown (or dental cap zirconia) is made from zirconium dioxide, a very sturdy kind of steel that belongs to titanium, although it’s categorized as a type of all ceramic crown. It combines metal’s toughness with the visual, tooth-like appeal of ceramic. Zirconia crowns are continually being created to additionally enhance their performance.
Types of Zirconia Crowns
Choose the right zirconia restoration for your patient's needs.
Zirconia Porcelain Crown
Combines zirconia coping and porcelain coating. The monolithic zirconia coping provides strength (1200MPa), while porcelain offers translucency at the incisal. Very natural looking for anterior teeth and enables long porcelain zirconia bridges.
Monolithic Zirconia Crown
Also called bruxzir crown or full zirconia crown. The whole crown is made of zirconia material only (no porcelain coating). Strongest among ceramic crowns but requires stains for a natural look. Recommended for back teeth requiring high chewing force.
High Translucent Zirconia Crown
Also called multilayer full zirconia crown. Made of zirconia material only with shade blending from cervical to incisor. Naturally looking with strength of 1050-700MPa, suitable for both anterior and posterior teeth.
