Dental crowns in Lviv

Problems Solved by Installing a Crown

1. Restoration of teeth after cavity treatment.
2. Improving aesthetics — especially important for front teeth.
3. Tooth whitening in case of severe enamel damage.
4. Correction of shape and position defects.
5. Stabilization of loose teeth under the crown.
6. Artistic restoration after injuries or in cases of bruxism (excessive teeth grinding).

Main Advantages of Dental Crowns

Modern ceramic crowns are highly durable orthodontic structures. Their lifespan can reach 10–15 years or even more with proper care. That is why they are used for treating teeth in the most difficult cases — including when a natural tooth is completely missing and an implant is installed.

If you are interested in dental crowns, prices in Lviv are comparable with other types of prostheses — you will not overpay. Additionally, they have the following advantages:

• Functionality. Restoring a tooth with a crown allows the patient to fully regain chewing function and improve speech. There is no discomfort while eating or talking.
• Aesthetics. Zirconia and ceramic crowns look as close as possible to natural enamel. Their shade can be adjusted to match adjacent teeth. Moreover, they do not change color with wear, allowing for long-term use.
• Safety. Modern dental crowns made with ceramics and photopolymers contain no harmful substances. They do not alter the taste of food, cause allergic reactions, or create additional risks.

Indications for Installing a Tooth Crown

1. Destruction of more than 50% of the tooth surface.
2. Deep chips or cracks.
3. Tooth looseness or instability.
4. Natural or traumatic enamel wear.
5. Tooth fracture with partial destruction.
6. Replacement of old crowns.
7. Contraindications to conservative methods of dental restoration.

Contraindications for Installing a Tooth Crown

In the presence of serious pathologies, crown installation may be canceled or postponed. This occurs when the following problems are detected during diagnostics:

1. Acute inflammation and poor oral hygiene.
2. Adjacent cavities — dental treatment is performed first.
3. Severe root destruction — an implant will be required for installation.
4. Oncological tumors.
5. Systemic infections or chronic diseases in the decompensated stage.
6. Severe bite disorders — orthodontic treatment is needed for restoration.
7. Individual sensitivity to materials.

Types of Dental Crowns

Modern crowns in dentistry are divided into three categories:

• Metal-ceramic crown — a budget classic. The inner part is made of a strong metal alloy, the outer part is ceramic. These models are durable and affordable, but their aesthetics and lifespan may slightly lag behind other options.
• Ceramic crown — a solid construction. Its advantages are high strength and a natural appearance. In terms of color, transparency, and texture, a ceramic crown is almost indistinguishable from a healthy natural tooth.
• Zirconia crown — an innovative option. It has the best reliability and aesthetic parameters. Zirconia crowns are most often used for restoring front teeth in the smile zone.

If you are installing crowns, prices in Lviv will match your budget and expectations. BIOCLINIC specialists have experience in manufacturing and installing all three types of crowns.

Stages of Crown Fabrication and Installation

1. Diagnostics. The first step is scheduling a consultation. The dentist will examine the tooth surface under a microscope and may prescribe additional examinations, such as X-rays or CT scans. If necessary, the patient will receive recommendations for professional oral hygiene and treatment of adjacent teeth.
2. Design. For the fabrication of prosthetic constructions, we use modern 4D scanning equipment. It allows creating an accurate jaw model without taking impressions, unpleasant taste, pain, or significant discomfort.
3. Fabrication. All types of crowns at BIOCLINIC are created using CAD/CAM software and digital equipment. This ensures minimal time spent on processing and fitting.
4. Installation. If indicated, a temporary crown is installed first — a light removable prosthesis. This helps avoid problems during ongoing treatment and high risk of complications. Once the dentist confirms the reliability of the construction, the permanent crown is installed and fixed.
5. Care. An individual home care program is developed for patients, taking into account their lifestyle. Appropriate brushes, toothpaste, irrigators, floss, and other tools are selected. A schedule of preventive consultations is created.

Recommendations for Caring for Dental Crowns

After installing crowns, patients should follow this routine:

• During the first 3 days, avoid very cold, hot, and hard foods.
• Do not use electric toothbrushes for 3 weeks.
• Afterwards, carefully clean the area where the crown contacts the gums.

Most crowns in medical practice require no special attention. However, if pain, bleeding, or an unpleasant odor appears, you should immediately schedule an appointment with the dentist. During the adaptation period, painkillers prescribed by a specialist can also be used.

Crown Structure

A crown is a kind of “cap” that replaces the destroyed surface of a tooth. A mandatory condition for its installation is the presence of part of the tooth and a strong root under the prosthesis. If there is significant destruction, implants are used.

Crowns are a versatile treatment option. In some cases, they can cover several teeth at once, but such constructions are more complex, less reliable, and require special care.

Dental Crown Warranty

Our clinic provides a 24-month warranty on crowns. However, most constructions last much longer — 10 years or more. The warranty is valid only if you follow the dentist’s recommendations. If you violate them, for example, by not using proper hygiene tools or chewing very hard foods, the case may be considered non-warranty.
