DENTAL CROWNS IN TURKEY
Treatment Duration: 3-5 Days
A dental crown is a type of cap that completely covers the tooth. It can be fitted to an individual’s damaged or decaying tooth or placed on top of a dental implant to replace a missing tooth. They can be made from full ceramic, zirconia, or metal. They are used to improve both function and aesthetics. As crowns surround all the surfaces of a tooth, they can be used for making more advanced adjustments to the position of teeth.
Who needs dental crowns?
- Patients whose teeth need to be strengthened or supported to prevent breaking
- Patients who suffer from stained, cracked, distorted, and deformed teeth.
- Patients who need a crown as a superstructure of a dental implant
- Patients who have large fillings and need support for the remaining tooth structure
All-Ceramic Crowns
All-ceramic crowns with super aesthetics and with higher tensile strengths and compressive strengths have become popular in recent years.They mainly incorporate glass particles and some other fillers to reinforce the structure All-ceramic crowns provide excellent aesthetics as the light diffusion through those is almost the same with natural teeth.
This makes all-ceramic crowns impossible to distinguish from natural teeth.

Zirconia Crowns
Zirconia has become widely popular in dentistry and is being preferred as it has various benefits.Firstly, it is white in colour which brings some consequent aesthetic advantages. It is biocompatible and non-allergic that is why it is safe for patients who have allergy.
Zirconia is a very long-lasting material and has proven its success as it has been used in dentistry for more than a quarter-century.
It is resistant to any colour changes or staining and can be used to crown any tooth.
Unlike the metal-ceramic crowns, their inner part is white. This feature prevents the grey or purple shade at the junction of the crown and gums and makes zirconia crowns look more natural and aesthetic.
They are also ideal for patients who suffer from having missing teeth and need a dental bridge.
