ZIRCONIUM CROWN
ZIRCONIUM CROWN
A Zirconium Crown is considered a top quality type of bridge which is stronger, durable and visually appealing as compared to other types of bridges. It is often preferred to metal ceramic bridges in that it causes less tooth sensitivity and with no sign of the dreaded grey line around the edge of the gums. For many people this is a downside of wearing a bridge. But one way of avoiding that is to choose an all ceramic bridge or the highly rated Zirconium Crown instead.
Strong, Stable and Great Look:. The main advantages are a strong, stable and great looking bridge which blends in well with the rest of your teeth. Plus the material used to fabricate this bridge is "biocompatible" which means that is kind to living tissue within your body and will not cause any ill effects, e.g. an allergic reaction.
Less preparation: Less preparation is needed which refers to the process you undergo before the crown is fitted. Your dentist reshapes the tooth, removing a tiny sliver which enables a better fit between crown and tooth. But minimal tooth reduction is required for a zirconia crown.
No Metal Base: There is no metal base within this bridge which means no ugly looking black line at the edge of the gums which is a common feature of metal ceramic bridges. This is good news from an aesthetic point of view as many people prefer to wear a bridge whose crowns closely match the colour of their natural teeth.
