Zirconia Crown

A zirconia crown is a tooth-coloured cap that covers a damaged, heavily filled or root-treated tooth to restore its shape, strength and appearance. Zirconia is a strong, metal-free ceramic that looks natural and suits both front and back teeth. At Lotus Clinic crowns are also offered in full ceramic and porcelain-on-bridge versions, so the dentist can match the material to the tooth's position and the load it carries. The crown is custom made to fit your bite and shade.

A crown is a custom-made cap that fully covers a tooth above the gum line, used when a tooth is too broken down, decayed, cracked or heavily restored to be repaired with a filling alone, or after root canal treatment when the remaining tooth structure needs protecting. A zirconia crown is made entirely from zirconium-oxide ceramic — a metal-free material valued for its strength and its natural, light-reflecting appearance, which makes it a popular choice for both visible front teeth and harder-working back teeth. At Lotus Clinic in Gorzów Wielkopolski the tooth is first prepared by removing decay and shaping it to receive the crown, and an impression or scan is taken so the crown can be made to fit precisely against your bite and neighbouring teeth. A temporary crown protects the tooth while the permanent one is produced, then the finished zirconia crown is checked for fit, contacts and shade before being cemented in place. The clinic also offers full-ceramic crowns, porcelain crowns on bridges for replacing missing teeth, and more economical cast-metal options, so the material can be matched to each situation. A well-made crown restores comfortable chewing and a natural look; the dentist will explain the choice of material, the number of visits involved and how to care for the crown, with good oral hygiene and regular reviews supporting its longevity.
