Summary
This case was treated at Vita Smile in Istanbul with zirconia crowns. The photos show the teeth before treatment and the final result, and are shared with the patient's written consent. Every mouth is different, so results vary; your own plan is confirmed after an examination and X-rays.
How this treatment works
How a zirconia crown is made and fitted
In most cases a crown takes two visits: one to prepare the tooth and take a scan or impression, and one to fit the finished crown. Some ceramic crowns can be designed and fitted on the same day.

-
First visit
Examination and plan
Your dentist checks the tooth, gums and bite, and explains whether monolithic or layered zirconia suits it.
-
First visit
Preparation and scan
The tooth is shaped to make space for the crown and recorded with a digital scan or impression. The shade is chosen with you.
-
Between visits
Temporary crown and laboratory work
A temporary crown protects the tooth while the laboratory makes the zirconia crown from the digital design.
-
Second visit
Fitting
The temporary is removed, and the new crown is checked for fit, colour and bite, then cemented permanently.
-
At home
Aftercare
Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, clean between your teeth daily, avoid biting hard objects and keep your check-ups.
These are the usual steps of this treatment at Vita Smile. The number of visits and the time between them depend on your treatment plan; your dentist confirms them after examining you.
