In Ozdemir dental clinic in Turkey, we use the highest quality zirconium crown material.
Zirconium Crown/Veneer Smile Design Treatment Process in Turkey:
Consultation and Inspection for Zirconium Crowns/Veneers:
The journey to a zirconium crown begins with consultation with a skilled cosmetic dentist. At our clinic, your dentist will assess your oral health in the first step, evaluate your specific needs and expectations, and decide whether zirconium crowns are the right choice for you. In our dental clinic in Turkey, we examine your panoramic x-ray and 3d dental tomography with state-of-the-art devices.
Preparation Phase of Zirconium Crowns/Veneers:
Once it is determined that zirconium crowns are suitable for your situation, your dentist will move on to the preparation phase. This involves removing a small layer of enamel from the tooth that has taken the crown to create space for restoration. Your teeth will also be measured to ensure that your zirconium crown is custom made.
Temporary Crown Placement:
Do not be afraid! We give you temporary dental crowns until you have your permanent zirconium crowns. While your personalized zirconium crown is being made, your dentist will place a temporary crown to protect the prepared tooth. This temporary crown will ensure your comfort and functionality until your permanent restoration is ready. You can continue your daily eating and drinking activities.
Digital Design and Milling for Zirconium Crowns/Veneers:
In our dental clinic in Antalya, with advances in technology, zirconium crowns are now created using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology. Your dentist will use special software to create a digital model of your tooth, which acts as a guide in making the zirconia crown. Once the design is complete, it is sent to a milling machine that precisely carves the crown from a solid block of zirconium.
Customizing Zirconium Crowns/Veneers:
After milling, the zirconium crown is subjected to further customization. Qualified dental technicians improve the shape, contour and color of the crown so it matches the surrounding natural teeth. This meticulous customization adds to the aesthetic appeal of the final restoration.
Gluing and Final Placement of Zirconium Crowns/Veneers:
Once your custom zirconium crown is ready, your dentist will remove the temporary crown and thoroughly clean the prepared tooth. After showing you your zirconium crowns and getting your approval, the Zirconium crown is carefully placed on the tooth and bonded using dental cement. Your dentist will ensure an exact fit and make the necessary adjustments to guarantee optimum comfort and functionality. Your bite positions will be checked. Congratulations, you are now ready to smile fully!
