Overview
Zirconia crowns are ceramic restorations used when a tooth needs structural or aesthetic restoration. Not every healthy tooth needs a crown.
Zirconia restorations may support function and appearance. The best material depends on the amount of remaining tooth, bite forces and aesthetic goals.
Assessment and Planning
Avoiding unnecessary removal of healthy tooth tissue and maintaining gum health are important for long-term results.
Important Considerations
Potential benefits, limitations and complications must be discussed before treatment. Outcomes and timelines cannot be guaranteed.
