Nowadays, zirconium has become a very popular material due to its durability and aesthetic advantages compared to alternatives. Its position as a metal element in the periodic table makes this material durable and rigid. It is also successful in imitating natural teeth thanks to its ability to create optical illusions. Zirconium material, which is produced in many different ways in the laboratory environment with the developing technology, is long-lasting. It is also a biocompatible and antiallergic material, compatible with tissues and has no toxic effects.
In patients with habits such as clenching and grinding, zirconium material is preferred because it has a very hard-to-wear structure. This, in addition to the material’s durability and longevity, ensures superior performance in areas where it needs to be suspended.
