Dental crowns are used to cover the dental implants for covering a tooth and they support the broken or weak tooth. Zirconia is one of the materials that is used in making these crowns. The zirconia crowns are made from zirconium dioxide which is a very durable material.
There are 2 types of zirconia crowns and these are monolithic and layered. The monolithic zirconia crown contains zirconium oxide and is very robust and almost unbreakable. These restorations are opaque and are mainly used on the rear jaw. The monolithic crowns do not chip or break or crack easily. They are made using cad cam milling and the color of these crowns can be matched to that of the teeth. In the case of a layered zirconia crown, the ceramic coping has layers of lithium disilicate. These crowns have solid cored and they are covered with soft porcelain.
A full zirconia crown is a very good option for PFM metal crowns and the main reason is its aesthetic appeal of these crowns. The zirconia crowns are ideal for bruxers who have damaged teeth.
Zirconia solid is recommended for crowns, bridges, implants, inlays and outlays. They are also indicated for implant crowns that are retained by screws and implant prostheses.
Zirconia crowns are not recommended for anterior aesthetics.
