Kronen aus Keramik in Wuppertal
At our private dental practice, Dr. Marcus Flach, in Wuppertal, we offer high-quality ceramic crowns that perfectly combine functionality, durability, and aesthetics. Ceramic crowns are particularly popular because they can be optimally matched to your natural teeth in color and translucency. Thanks to state-of-the-art materials and our precise manufacturing in our in-house laboratory, we can produce dental crowns that not only blend seamlessly into your smile but also offer maximum comfort.
What are ceramic crowns?
As the name suggests, a ceramic crown is a dental crown made of ceramic, a material that closely resembles the optical appearance of the original tooth enamel.
Ceramic crowns are particularly popular with discerning patients because they are metal-free and virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth in terms of aesthetics. However, the individual customization required to fit the crown to the surrounding teeth makes the fabrication of a ceramic crown relatively complex.
The creation of such a dental crown can be described as a handcrafted „work of art.“ It is usually carried out in a dental laboratory. The dental technician meticulously replicates the enamel and dentin (the inner layer of the tooth) of the ceramic crown in a natural manner. Once successfully completed, the color and light reflection of the ceramic crown are virtually indistinguishable from those of natural teeth.
A crown is made by your dentist when the hard tissue of the natural crown of the tooth is largely destroyed.
However, there are some cases where it should not be used. These include:
- incomplete root canal fillings
- Gum inflammation (periodontitis)
- Loose teeth
- Multiple Allergies
Precision through our own in-house laboratory
A key advantage of our practice is our in-house dental laboratory, where experienced dental technicians individually craft each crown. This close collaboration between dentist and technician allows us to precisely match the color, shape, and fit of our ceramic crowns. The result: an aesthetically perfect and long-lasting restoration that is immediately impressive. Short communication channels, direct coordination, and rigorous quality control also ensure faster completion – a real advantage over external laboratories.
Furthermore, our in-house laboratory allows us to respond immediately to special requests and individual circumstances. Adjustments can be made directly on-site, so our patients don’t have to endure unnecessary appointments or long waiting times.
Treatment procedure
The tooth to be prepared is locally numbed with anesthesia. Using a special diamond bur, the dentist then removes the required amount of tooth structure. An impression of the prepared tooth is then taken using an impression material. The tooth shade for the crown is also determined at this stage. Finally, the prepared tooth is fitted with a temporary plastic crown to protect it until the permanent ceramic crown is ready.
To fit the permanent crown, the temporary crown is removed and the tooth is thoroughly cleaned. The dentist then examines the shape and, most importantly, the fit of the crown. If it doesn’t fit perfectly, it is adjusted until it fits perfectly and feels like a natural tooth.
Comfortable treatment in a private practice
As a private practice, we offer our patients a special service: short waiting times, flexible appointment scheduling, and a wider range of services than conventional dental practices. You benefit from state-of-the-art technology, highly qualified staff, and individualized treatment plans. Precise preparation is crucial, especially for ceramic crowns. Therefore, our patients receive a personal consultation that explains all the options and finds the optimal solution for each tooth.
Our treatment procedures are designed for comfort and efficiency. Preparation for ceramic crowns is virtually painless, often under local anesthesia, and the temporary restoration ensures that aesthetics and function are maintained while the final crown is being fabricated.
Individual aesthetics and durability
Thanks to modern materials and precise technology, we can produce ceramic crowns that are not only visually appealing but also durable in the long term. Our ceramic crowns are characterized by excellent abrasion resistance, color stability, and retain their natural appearance for many years.
Patients who place great value on a flawless smile especially benefit from the combination of aesthetic appeal, functional stability, and the personalized service of a private practice.
