Zirconia dental crowns are widely used to restore teeth in cases of damage, decay, fractures, patient dissatisfaction with teeth size or shape, and other aesthetic imperfections. Patients can choose the colour of the crowns: dazzling white or more natural shades, making it difficult to distinguish the crowns from natural, healthy teeth. Zirconia dental crowns are made of zirconium dioxide, a durable material that allows for the creation of crowns for both front and back teeth, which can last for 15 years or longer.

Cost of Zirconia Dental Crowns

When it comes to prices, they can vary depending on the country. In the UK, prices are around £800 to £1,000 per crown. This can become uncomfortable if a patient needs to order multiple crowns. Fortunately, nowadays it’s easy to receive this treatment at more affordable prices in Turkey, where prices start from £175 per unit. Our dentists have extensive experience in crown placement, are fluent in English, and help patients from different countries achieve the smiles of their dreams.

Zirconia Crowns on Front Teeth

Due to their natural appearance, durability, and comparatively low cost, patients often choose zirconia crowns for their front teeth instead of porcelain alternatives. For a long time, zirconia crowns of previous generations were less translucent (and looked less natural than natural teeth) than their porcelain counterparts and were thicker. 

However, recent developments in zirconia crowns have led to improved translucency and a more natural appearance. Furthermore, modern zirconia dental crowns have become thinner, allowing for the preservation of more natural dental tissue during preparation. Additionally, state-of-the-art digital technologies are now used to design crowns that closely resemble the shape of natural teeth and ensure compatibility with opposing and neighbouring teeth, providing excellent aesthetics, function, and longevity.

Dental Zirconia Bridge

While the function of zirconia dental crowns is usually to restore damaged teeth, a dental zirconia bridge can replace a missing tooth. It is fixed to the neighbouring teeth and covers the area of the absent tooth, functioning as a bridge with a monolithic crown in place of the gap. Due to the durability of the material, it provides proper chewing function for 6-8 years, and sometimes even a decade, while also looking like natural teeth. It becomes the procedure of choice if a patient cannot or is unwilling to undergo dental implant placement.

Benefits of Zirconia Crowns

The first and most significant advantage of zirconia dental crowns is their durability and strength. They are a perfect solution for patients seeking a long-lasting option for their tooth restoration. Secondly, due to recent technological developments, zirconia dental crowns have become more natural-looking and desirable for patients with high aesthetic expectations. Thirdly, their prices are affordable for the vast majority of patients. In our clinics, you can receive this treatment from highly experienced dentists. Before starting treatment, you will receive a comprehensive consultation, during which our dentist will recommend the best solution tailored to your individual situation.
