Zirconium Teeth
Zirconia Dental Crowns are metal-free restorations made from high-quality, biocompatible zirconium dioxide. At Dental Options Dental Clinic in Kyrenia, Cyprus, we restore broken, weakened, or aesthetically compromised teeth with durable and natural-looking zirconia crowns.
Why Choose Zirconia Crowns?
Zirconia crowns offer several advantages over traditional metal or metal-supported porcelain crowns:
- Exceptional Durability: Highly resistant to fractures and wear; ideal for both front and back teeth.
- Natural Appearance: Light transmission closely mimics natural enamel, providing excellent aesthetic harmony.
- Biocompatible and Allergy-Friendly: Safe for individuals with metal allergies and gentle on oral tissues.
- Minimal Tooth Reduction: Requires less removal of natural tooth structure compared to other crown types.
- Long-Lasting: With proper care, crowns maintain color and integrity for many years.

When are zirconia crowns recommended?
Zirconia crowns are used for teeth that are broken, heavily filled, weakened after root canal treatment or badly discoloured, and on top of dental implants. When only the appearance of healthy front teeth needs improving, porcelain veneers may be a more conservative choice.
How zirconia crown treatment works
- Examination: We check the teeth and gums, take X-rays if needed and discuss shade and shape.
- Preparation: The tooth is shaped under local anaesthesia to make room for the crown.
- Digital scan: An intraoral scanner records the teeth precisely, without traditional impression material.
- Design and production: The crown is designed and milled with CAD/CAM technology; a temporary crown protects the tooth meanwhile.
- Fitting: The crown is tried in, adjusted and cemented, and the bite is checked.
Looking after zirconia crowns
Brush twice a day, clean between the teeth daily and attend regular check-ups. If you grind your teeth at night, a night guard helps protect both crowns and natural teeth.

Frequently asked questions
How long do zirconia crowns last?
Zirconia is one of the strongest materials used for crowns. With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, zirconia crowns can last for many years.
Do zirconia crowns look natural?
Yes. Modern zirconia is layered and shaded to match your natural teeth, and because there is no metal, there is no grey line at the gum.
Zirconia crowns or porcelain veneers: which do I need?
A crown covers the whole tooth and is chosen for broken, heavily filled or root-canal-treated teeth. Veneers cover only the front surface and are used mainly to improve the look of healthy teeth. Your dentist will recommend the right option after the examination.
Is the procedure painful?
Tooth preparation is done under local anaesthesia. Some sensitivity for a few days afterwards is normal.
How many appointments are needed?
Usually a few appointments: examination and preparation, a digital scan, and fitting of the finished crowns. Your dentist will tell you how many days to plan in Kyrenia.
