Common questions
Who are zirconia crowns suitable for?
People with discoloured, misshapen or broken teeth who want them to look better. Because zirconia is metal-free, it's also a good option if you're allergic to metals.
How long do zirconia crowns last?
Mostly it depends on how you look after them: with regular care and check-ups they usually last 10–15 years, sometimes longer.
Will it hurt afterwards?
The work is done under local anaesthetic and is usually painless. You may feel slight sensitivity for the first few days.
Are they kind to the gums?
Yes — zirconia is highly biocompatible, and because it's metal-free it doesn't leave a grey or bluish line at the gum.
Do they look like natural teeth?
Zirconia lets light through much like enamel, so it looks very close to a natural tooth — a real advantage at the front of the mouth.
