Crown / Bridge / Veneer

Monolithic zirconia, also referred to as full-contour zirconia (FCZ), is a non-metallic, opaque material that offers stability for posterior crowns and bridges. This type of zirconia possesses a natural colour that can be easily matched to adjacent teeth, enhancing its aesthetic appeal in comparison to alternative materials. Our crowns and bridges made of 100% monolithic zirconia are crafted by milling solid zirconia blocks, followed by sintering at temperatures exceeding 1500°C, resulting in an exceptionally durable product. Before the sintering process, the zirconia is stained in various colours to achieve a base colour, contributing to the improved aesthetics of the final restoration.

Zirconia premium is a versatile material that can be applied in various situations where lithium disilicate is conventionally used. It becomes an excellent choice, especially when aiming for superior aesthetics in single crowns placed in the anterior region. SK Dental lab recommend its utilization for veneers, crowns on premolars, particularly when aesthetics are a primary concern, and even for crowns on molars. High-translucent zirconia can be precision-milled in both monolithic and multi-layered forms. Importantly, it has a minimal impact on opposing teeth, causing little abrasion. Moreover, it offers outstanding aesthetic outcomes and exhibits a higher flexural strength compared to other all-ceramic restorations like lithium disilicate.

Emax is a widely utilized lithium disilicate glass ceramic material in the field of dental restorative procedures. It boasts several key advantages that make it a preferred choice for dental professionals. First and foremost, Emax is renowned for its exceptional translucency, allowing it to closely replicate the natural appearance of teeth. This attribute makes it particularly suitable for anterior restorations where aesthetics is paramount. Another noteworthy feature of emax is its biocompatibility, ensuring safe use within the oral cavity while minimizing the risk of adverse reactions or allergies. Its versatility is a significant asset, as it can be effectively employed to craft various types of dental restorations, ranging from crowns and bridges to inlays, onlays, and veneers, thus catering to diverse clinical requirements. Emax is celebrated for its ability to produce highly aesthetic results that closely mimic natural teeth. This quality is vital for creating restorations that seamlessly blend with a patient's smile. Additionally, emax is a monolithic material, eliminating the need for a separate framework and reducing the risk of delamination of porcelain. In summary, emax stands out as a versatile and highly aesthetic material that meets the demands of both patients and clinicians, offering a reliable solution for a wide range of dental restoration needs.

Veneer is ultra-thin, custom-crafted shells designed to cover the front surface of teeth, offering a transformative solution for enhancing smiles. Available in two primary materials—porcelain and composite resin—veneers address cosmetic concerns such as discoloration, chips, gaps, or minor misalignments. Their translucent quality and customizable shape mimic natural tooth enamel, delivering a seamless, aesthetically pleasing result. Porcelain veneers begin with a consultation to assess tooth color, shape, and fit. A small layer of enamel may be gently removed to ensure a natural look. Impressions are taken and sent to a lab, where each veneer is meticulously fabricated using high-quality ceramic materials. For composite veneers, the resin is skillfully layered and shaped chairside, then hardened with a curing light. Both types are bonded securely to the teeth using dental adhesive, ensuring a strong, lasting hold. Veneers provide a minimally invasive alternative to crowns, preserving more natural tooth structure. Their ability to reflect light like natural enamel creates a radiant, authentic smile. Porcelain variants, in particular, resist staining from coffee, tea, or smoking, maintaining their brightness over time. Ideal for those seeking a confident, photogenic smile, dental veneers combine artistry and advanceddentistry to deliver personalized, enduring results.
