Zirconium Dental Coating
In this system, zirconium is used as a building material instead of metal. Studies have shown that the highest performance achieved to date has been achieved in terms of aesthetics, durability, tissue compatibility and naturalness, which are the basic requirements of dentistry. With zirconium smart ceramics, all treatments are so natural that they cannot be distinguished from your natural teeth.
What is Zirconium?
Zirconium smart ceramics provide biocompatibility with our body and a natural appearance. Zirconium oxide, which is a high-tech product and has proven its durability as a heat shield in space shuttles and brake discs in sports cars, is now used by dentists. This technological ceramic, developed for dentistry with the application of zirconium smart ceramics, has a great contribution to prosthetic treatment.
Zirconium Porcelain Based Crown and Bridge Applications
In this system, it is used as a building material instead of metal. zirconium is used. Studies have shown that the highest performance ever achieved in terms of aesthetics, durability, tissue compatibility and naturalness, which are the basic requirements of dentistry, has been achieved.
It is a method that emerges as a result of combining completely manipulative skills with computer-aided technology. Tooth preparations, hand-prepared in the clinic, are shaped in the laboratory using special methods and read with a laser scanning system using a special device. This information is transferred to the shaping section of the device and the crown or bridge is processed by the computer.
Thus, the zirconium oxide infrastructure is formed. The top of this substructure is covered with special porcelain. In this way, light-transmitting (neon-effect), highly durable, aesthetic and natural-looking crowns and bridges are obtained. The biggest advantage of the system is that it now makes porcelains usable in bridges with its very high durability.
Aesthetic Dental fillings (Amalgam fillings are not preferred in our clinic)
It is completely manipulative skill. It is a method that emerges as a result of combining it with computer-aided technology. Tooth preparations, hand-made in the clinic, are shaped in the laboratory using special methods and processed using a special method. It is read with a laser scanning system using a device. This information is transferred to the shaping section of the device and the crown or bridge is processed by the computer.
Due to the fragile structure of porcelain, it is necessary to use a hard and durable material as the infrastructure to increase the durability of the porcelain in all crown and bridge veneers. In zirconium supported ones, this material consists of zirconium alloy.
Where can Zirconium be used?
• Single tooth crown restorations
• 3-6 membered (anatomical length up to 38 mm) bridges
• Implant crown-bridge studies
Zirconium Tooth
Until now, zirconium oxide was a very hard material, so it was difficult to process and therefore it was very difficult to use it as a prosthesis. However, with recent studies, this hard and durable material has become usable in the mouth.
A model of your new tooth is made in the dental laboratory according to the specifications specified by your dentist. With the help of this model, your zirconium oxide crown or bridge is produced under computer control.
Then, a ceramic coating is applied to the zirconium oxide to match the natural color of your tooth. Zirconium

Zirconium Based Bridges Without Metal Support
In this system, zirconium alloy, a white color, is used as the infrastructure instead of metal. The biggest advantage of the system is to provide a fully aesthetic appearance in the bridges in the posterior region, with the very high durability it achieves.
In case of one or more missing teeth, it is the process of shrinking the adjacent teeth and filling the intermediate spaces with the support of special coatings on them.
p>
When tooth loss occurs for any reason, neighboring teeth begin to move towards this gap. As a result, gum problems in the adjacent teeth, bone loss due to tipping into this space, deterioration in aesthetics and changes in chewing forces occur. If this gap is not restored with an implant or bridge for a long time, these adjacent teeth may also be lost.
Metal Supported Crowns and Bridges
Alty Standard metal "quotni-co" or precious metal "quotau" alloys can be used as the structure. Among the substances used in dentistry, gold is one of the most valuable materials compatible with teeth and gums. Therefore, healthier and more aesthetic results are achieved with applications using precious metal.
Metal-Free Full Porcelain Crowns
They are made of reinforced porcelain. Although many things affect the appearance of crowns, the most important is their response to light. Natural teeth transmit light. As a result, depth and vitality appear in the teeth. Due to the light transmission properties of porcelain crowns without metal support (full porcelain), their depth and vitality are greater, thus providing results closest to natural teeth.
IPS Bridges Without Metal Support strong>
It is obtained by compressing the strengthened porcelain in special machines. It is preferred especially in the front teeth due to its very good light transmittance. It is not resistant enough to chewing forces for the posterior region.
While full porcelains create an aesthetic very similar to the natural tooth structure because they transmit light, there is a dullness and artificiality in metal porcelains, even if they are very well made. For this reason, full porcelains are preferred, especially in the front teeth.
Metal-supported porcelains give the appearance of a dark space in some lights (disco, camera flash, etc.) as if it does not exist in the mouth. Full porcelains, on the other hand, transmit all kinds of light, just like natural teeth.
Metal-supported porcelains are mechanically bonded to the tooth. Full porcelains are attached to the teeth mechanically and chemically. Therefore, their retention is much higher than metal-supported ones.
Since there is no metal in its infrastructure, there will be no dark line at the crown-gum line. A more aesthetic appearance is provided.
When the gum recedes, full porcelains maintain their aesthetic appearance, while metal porcelains create a bad appearance in the area where they meet the tooth. They are resistant to some metals used in the infrastructure (nickel, etc.). strong> There is no risk of allergy in full porcelain.
