Materials and Procedures for Crowns, Bridges and Veneers
At Worldwide Beauty and Dental Hospital, the materials used to create your custom-made crown, bridge or veneers are of the highest quality. Our on-site laboratory is staffed by fully qualified professionals with years of experience in the field.
Your dental restoration can be made from:
- Non-metal e.max®, zirconia and vita porcelain: This can can also be placed on an implant. This natural-looking beautiful option for crowns doesn’t involve a “dark collar” as the years pass.
- Nano e.max: a pressed ceramic with superior fit, function and form that offers strength and is ideal for front teeth.
- Non-metal lava: a type of ceramic resin that looks as natural as a regular tooth while being very hard, making it suitable for front or back teeth.
- Non-metal full zirconia: which is a porcelain crown that is a hard non-metal. It is used for back teeth, particularly a crown placed on an implant, due to its superior chewing properties.
- Crystal ultraporcelain: . Utilised for crowns on implants and three-unit bridges, it is the strongest of ceramic and ceramic hybrids and can be completed within a day.
- Precious metal: Crowns created from gold, palladium, plating and more are covered with layers of porcelain for a pleasing aesthetic with biocompatibility and strength.
- Titanium: If you require a crown, bridge or crown on implant, this restoration is natural-looking, made from a titanium frame covered by layers of cosmetic porcelain.
The Step-by-step Appointment Procedure
When you receive veneers, a crown or a bridge, 4-5 appointments are necessary, taking place over 5-7 days.
- First appointment: Intra-oral examination, CT X-rays and taking impressions; advanced software is used so that you and your dentist can design your ideal smile.
- Second or third appointment: The restoration is prepared, the colour selected and a temporary crown placed while the data is sent to the laboratory to create your permanent device.
- Third or fourth appointment: Trying the restoration in your mouth and installing it.
- Fourth or fifth appointment: A re-examination of your device and making any needed adjustments.
