What is a Zirconia Crown?
A zirconia crown is a fixed dental restoration prepared from zirconium dioxide. It is a high-strength, tooth-coloured ceramic material that delivers exceptional strength, biocompatibility, and natural appearance. Unlike PFM crowns that have a metal base, zirconia crowns are 100% metal-free throughout their entire thickness.
Zirconia is a crystalline oxide of zirconium in the dentistry world. It is used in a partially stabilised form, typically by yttria-stabilised tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP), which makes it extremely fracture-tough with perfect translucency to give a natural-looking appearance.
Zirconia crowns are based on two main forms:
- Monolithic Zirconia: The entire crown is milled from a single block of zirconia. Hence, it is able to give maximum strength and is perfect for posterior teeth and bruxers.
- Layered Zirconia: A zirconia crown with additional ceramic layering to enhance its natural aesthetics. It is mainly used for anterior teeth.
Technical Properties of Dental Zirconia
Dental Zirconia has a unique technical property which makes it highly demanding in the dentistry world. Let’s know about its technical properties-
| Property |
Clinical Significance |
| Flexural strength |
900–1,200 MPa -significantly stronger than natural enamel |
| Fracture toughness |
Highest of all dental ceramics -resists crack propagation |
| Biocompatibility |
No metal ions released -safe for patients with metal allergy |
| Thermal conductivity |
Low -closer to a natural tooth than metal |
| Wear on opposing dentition |
Lower than traditional feldspathic porcelain when polished |
| Radiopacity |
Visible on radiograph -important for margin evaluation |
| Chemical stability |
Highly resistant to oral fluids, acids, and staining |
Zirconia Dental Restorations Available from Replica Dental La
At Replica Dental Lab, we provide all kinds of Zirconia dental restoration. You do not have to visit multiple labs.
Full Zirconia Crown (Monolithic)
Our full zirconia crown is milled from a zirconia block with high strength. No need for ceramic veneer layering, hence no risk of chips. It is suitable for molar posterior teeth, for patients with night grinding, short clinical crowns, and where durability is important. We have standard and high translucency varieties available.
Multilayered Zirconia Crown
Multilayered zirconia blanks possess an inherent translucency gradient, low in the cervical third and high translucency in the incisal third. No need for any additional porcelain layers for achieving aesthetics. Multilayered crowns are ideal for anterior cases where patients desire aesthetic results with no risk of chip fractures.
High-Translucency Zirconia Crown
It is third-generation and fourth-generation zirconia compositions with yttrium content of 4 to 5 mol% offer much higher translucency compared to conventional Y-TZP zirconia blocks. We provide milling services for high-translucency zirconia crowns, especially for use in anterior areas.
Zirconia Bridge -3 to 14 Units
Zirconia bridges are popular. We provide zirconia bridges from 3 units to 14 units for full arch reconstructions. All bridge frameworks are examined for connector and fit quality prior to porcelain application or dispatch. Monolithic bridges, not prone to chipping, are also on offer.
Implant-Supported Zirconia Crowns and Bridges
We produce zirconia crowns and bridges supported by implant abutments for popular implant systems such as Straumann, Nobel Biocare, Osstem, Megagen, Zimmer, and many more. Both cement-retained and screw-retained zirconia crown and bridge assemblies are offered.
Full Arch Zirconia Rehabilitation
Full-arch zirconia rehabilitation, including full-arch immediate load dentures and monolithic zirconia full-arch bridges, is provided by our laboratory. Your digital planning file and our modelling services will guarantee precision-fitting frameworks.
Benefits of Zirconia Crown
A zirconia crown is a special type of dental crown which gives a combination of the beauty of ceramic with the strength of metal. Here is the key benefit of using a zirconia crown.
- Exceptional strength: Zirconia crowns are strong enough to bear the bite and chewing force of natural teeth. They withstand high occlusal forces.
- Durable: Zirconia is one of the most durable and long-lasting materials. It is more durable and dependable than other types of crown materials and less likely to wear.
- Natural aesthetics: Zirconia’s translucency mimics natural enamel. It perfectly matches your teeth size, shape, and colour, and gives a natural-looking smile.
- Safe and non-toxic: The zirconia material is safe and non-toxic, perfect for teeth replacement. Even it is suitable for people with metal allergies.
- Radiopaque and MRI-friendly: Unlike metal material, it does not interfere with diagnostics. It is completely safe.
- Low plaque activity: Zirconia has an extremely smooth surface that resists plaque accumulation and keeps the smile brighter all the time.
- Long-term success: Zirconia crowns have a high survival rate as compared to PFM, but with better aesthetics.
