What is Zirconium Tooth?
In the past, the porcelain was needed to be supported using a metal base structure. The reason behind this is porcelain is a fragile material and the metal base was preventing porcelain to be broken. This base is not preferred today due to the fact that it experiences corrosion after a while. In the same time, it is not suitable to use for people with metal allergy. Zirconium prostheses are an ideal choice for people with allergies. In metal based prosthesis there is black-gray coloration and it’s not esthetically pleasing. For this and similar reasons prostheses without metal bases are outshining others.
Where Can the Zirconium Teeth Be Used?
Zirconium tooth is generally used on people with esthetical worries, when the results couldn’t be achieved with teeth whitening methods, on malocclusion of teeth where orthodontic treatment wasn’t decided, structurally distorted old fillings, restoration purposes for teeth with abrasion, veneering back teeth or as a dental bridge, above implant prosthesis applications.
What are the Advantages of Zirconium Teeth?
