Somaraj V: Esthetic Rehabilitation using Zirconia-Based All-Ceramic Crown

چکیده

The dental practice is not only about prevention and treatment of oral diseases but also the fulfillment of demands of all who seek oral care, of which esthetics weighs more importance than any. To achieve excellence in the delivery of dental care, dentists rely on the vast array of modern advances in dental materials and restoration fabrication technologies. Need for more esthetical, metal-free and biocompatible material as restorative materials have led to the development of all-ceramic systems. Modern technology has enabled the all-ceramic systems to replace the cast metal alloy core of crowns used in the past. Zirconia ceramic crowns have the added advantages of superior esthetics, biocompatibility, and excellent mechanical properties. With the help of digital technology, zirconia ceramic systems have improved accuracy and marginal integrity thus enhancing the esthetics of the crowns. Zirconia-based fixed partial dentures can be used either as a single tooth or multi-unit prosthesis by virtue of the reliable properties of the material. This case report elaborates the placement and follow-up of zirconia-based all-ceramic crowns in relation to all non-vital maxillary incisors in a 22-year-old male patient following a road traffic accident.

An esthetic comparison of a metal ceramic crown and cast metal abutment with an all-ceramic crown and zirconia abutment: a clinical report.

This clinical report compares the esthetic outcome of replacing the same left maxillary central incisor with 2 types of implant-supported restorations, a zirconia abutment with a Procera crown and a custom metal abutment with metal ceramic crown. There were only subtle differences noted and both restorations yielded a satisfactory result.

All-ceramic single-tooth implant reconstructions using modified zirconia abutments: a prospective randomized controlled clinical trial of the effect of pink veneering ceramic on the esthetic outcomes.

The aim of this study was to test whether veneering of the submucosal part of zirconia abutments using pink veneering ceramic positively influences the color of the peri-implant mucosa. Single-tooth implants were restored with either white zirconia abutments (control group) or pink-veneered zirconia abutments and all-ceramic crowns. Esthetic outcome measurements included a spectrophotometric ev...

Esthetic outcome of an immediately placed maxillary anterior single-tooth implant restored with a custom-made zirconia-ceramic abutment and crown: a staged treatment.

This article describes the high esthetic value of a single-tooth implant immediately placed in the anterior region using a flapless approach and a custom-made zirconia-ceramic abutment and crown. The case reported illustrates the practical procedure involved in developing natural esthetics with a custom-made zirconia-ceramic prosthesis and abutment. The technique is relatively simple, can be us...

Zirconia ceramic post systems: a literature review and a case report.

Cast metal post-core systems have a long history of successful use because of their superior physical properties. However, their high elastic modulus can cause stress concentrations within the surrounding radicular dentin, resulting in root fractures. Moreover, the increasing demand for more esthetically appealing and biocompatible restorations has led to the development of tooth-colored, trans...
