Zirconium Porcelain Veneers

A differentiation is made between metal-containing and metal-free dental veneers. Zirconium dental veneers are metal-free types of coating. Zirconium is coated with ceramic (porcelain) using special processes. The result is a dental coating material made of zirconium oxide ceramic. Zirconium veneers are usually preferred by people who suffer from tooth decay or want to have an aesthetic smile. It is used more on the front teeth because it is aesthetically pleasing. Zirconium veneers can be applied to the surface of the teeth as well as to missing areas of the teeth. With veneers, one of the most important goals is to maintain the natural appearance of the teeth. Because zirconium veneers are translucent, they come closest to the natural appearance. It also provides a harmonious colouring of the teeth and is gentle on the tooth surface and gums. It adapts easily to your mouth structure. The sensitivity to heat and cold is the same for zirconium veneers as for natural teeth.
