What is Zirconium Dental Veneer?
The most aesthetic material applied is ceramic. However, since ceramic has a fragile structure, we need an infrastructure. These substructures are divided into 2 as metal or zirconium. Zirconium is a durable, aesthetic, biocompatible infrastructure material. On top of that, ceramics can be processed.
Why Zirconium Coating?
Since zirconium is a white material, there is no dark reflection in metal-supported porcelain. In addition, since it has a light transmittance of 30-40%, it does not appear opaque and artificial. Because our own teeth have a certain light transmittance. When zirconium comes into direct contact with our body, it is not perceived as a foreign substance. In metal, this is not so. Although there are special metal mixtures, metal can have toxic and allergic effects. There are even zirconium implants made into the bone. Therefore, it is a healthy material.
