Zirconium Crowns in Turkey

Zirconium crowns can be made on one’s own teeth or after implants. After the abrading of the teeth is finished or the recovery period of the implants is completed, the physician firstly takes the necessary measurements from the person. Afterwards, these measurements are transferred to appropriate plaster models in the dental laboratory, and a copy of the patient’s mouth is created. A copy of plaster models is created digitally on the computer with the scanner and the design process begins with the help of programs. In the infrastructure designs made, the size and forms of the teeth that the person will have are considered as much as possible. The script created at the end of the designs is transferred to the machine called CAD-CAM by a program. They are processed into round blocks pressed with zirconium. It consists of zirconium element, the structure of which is extracted from nature. After the scraping processes are finished in CAD-CAM, it is left to cook in the oven at 1500-1600 degrees Celsius within the range of 4 to 16 hours. At this temperature, almost all metals found in nature melt, while only zirconium becomes seet. This process is called sintering and they shrink as much as the values ​​written on zirconium blocks. It is ensured that the models fit perfectly with the rehearsals performed by technicians, and then the infrastructure is sent to the physician and the rehearsal stage is completed.
