Porcelain & Zirconia Crowns and Bridges

A crown is a custom cap that covers and protects a damaged, heavily filled or root-treated tooth, while a bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by joining crowns across the gap. Stomatologia Słubice makes crowns and bridges in modern all-ceramic zirconia, which combines strength with a natural, light-reflecting appearance and contains no metal. Two zirconia options are offered — Pritidenta and Zirkonzahn — with temporary restorations provided while the permanent work is made.

A dental crown restores a tooth that is too broken down, cracked or heavily filled to be rebuilt with a simple filling, fully encasing it to protect the remaining structure and return normal shape and function. A bridge uses crowns on the teeth either side of a gap (or on implants) to carry replacement teeth across the space. At Stomatologia Słubice these restorations are made from zirconia — a tooth-coloured ceramic prized for its strength and for transmitting light in a way that is associated with a natural look, with no dark metal margins at the gumline. The process usually involves preparing the tooth, taking a precise impression or scan, and fitting a temporary crown while the laboratory fabricates the final restoration; the clinic provides standard or long-term temporaries depending on how long the interim period will be. Two zirconia systems are available: Pritidenta and the higher-tier Zirkonzahn, allowing the material and aesthetics to be matched to the tooth's position and the patient's preference. For situations where a full crown is more than is needed but a direct filling is not enough, the clinic also offers a ceramic inlay/onlay — a laboratory-made restoration bonded into the tooth that conserves more natural structure. Well-made and well-maintained crowns and bridges are associated with many years of service. The dentist confirms the most suitable option, the number of units and the shade at consultation, and German-speaking reception can help patients from across the border plan the preparation and fitting visits.
