Zirconium Crown

A zirconium crown is a tooth-coloured, metal-free cap that covers a damaged or weakened tooth.

About the Treatment

Zirconia is a strong ceramic used for front and back teeth. A crown restores the shape and function of a tooth that has a large filling, a fracture or root canal treatment.

The tooth is prepared under local anaesthesia, measured with a digital scan or impression and the crown is made in a dental laboratory. Your dentist checks the fit, bite and colour before cementing it.

How It Works

01

Examination

X-ray and scan; your dentist confirms which teeth need crowns.

03

Laboratory

Crowns are made to your measurements and shade.

04

Fitting

Fit and bite are checked, then the crowns are cemented.

Questions

Yes. You choose the shade and shape with your dentist during the examination.

It depends on your oral hygiene, bite and check-ups. Your dentist explains what to expect for your teeth.

Brush twice a day with a soft brush, clean between the teeth daily, avoid biting very hard objects and have regular check-ups.

The cost depends on your teeth and is written in your treatment plan after a dentist reviews your photos and X-ray.
