What is Zirconium Teeth?
Zirconium tooth is expressed as a tooth obtained from a material used instead of the infrastructure of porcelain bridges and bridge prostheses. Especially in the last period, patients who have various disorders, yellowing and wear in their teeth often prefer zirconium teeth, since it is an alloy with high aesthetics and durability.
Zirconium teeth are generally used for aesthetic purposes. As an alternative to the grayish reflection of traditional metal-supported porcelain teeth from the gingival edges, zirconium teeth are widely used. In addition, zirconium teeth are a good option for patients who are allergic to metal.
Zirconium is a material compatible with tooth tissue. In this way, problems such as gingival recession or bruising in the gingiva are not encountered.
How is Zirconium Dental Operation Performed?
Before the zirconium tooth application, our doctor and the patient meet face to face. An operation plan is created in line with the patient’s expectations.
In zirconium tooth veneer, tooth cutting is done and tooth dimensions are transferred to the virtual environment via three-dimensional scanners. In case of any inflammation or edema in the teeth, first of all, gum treatment is performed and gingival aesthetics is provided. Temporary teeth can be used until they have healthy gums. After the gums heal, zirconium teeth are used by sticking them on the cut teeth.
Healing Process After Zirconium Teeth Operation
In some patients, sensitivity and tingling may occur in the teeth in the first week after the dental operation. The reason for this is the exposure of the tooth nerves after tooth extraction. In order to prevent these sensitivities, your dentist makes temporary fixed teeth. However, most of the time, a comfortable treatment process is passed without any pain and sensitivity.
