Restorations nobody will notice – metal-free, durable and as individual as your smile.

All-ceramic restorations

All-ceramic restorations are one of our particular areas of focus.

If a tooth is too damaged for a filling, or if a tooth is missing, we restore it with high-quality all-ceramic restorations – completely metal-free. Ceramic lets light through just like natural enamel, so the result blends in harmoniously with your teeth in colour, lustre and translucency. Dark margins at the gum line, familiar from metal-ceramic crowns, are a thing of the past.

Our all-ceramic restorations

Inlays and partial crowns
For larger defects in the back teeth. They are made to fit precisely and bonded to the tooth, preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible. We can often make them right here in the practice and fit them in the same appointment.
Crowns
If a tooth is badly damaged or has had root canal treatment, an all-ceramic crown protects and stabilises it for the long term.
Bridges
To close a gap: the neighbouring teeth support a bridge made of high-strength ceramic.
Veneers
Ultra-thin ceramic shells for the front teeth – find out more on our veneers page.

Why all-ceramic?

Your benefits

  • Natural aesthetics
  • Metal-free & biocompatible
  • Durable
  • Tooth-conserving

Modern high-performance ceramics such as zirconia or lithium disilicate are extremely strong and withstand even the high chewing forces on the back teeth. They are very well tolerated, do not cause allergies, do not conduct heat or cold, and offer plaque very little to cling to.

Together we will decide which material and type of restoration is ideal for you – with all costs explained transparently in advance. Just ask us – we will be happy to give you detailed, individual advice.

Ceramics in a single visit

Primescan®, Primemill® and SpeedFire

Your benefits

  • Just one appointment
  • No temporary
  • No impression material

With our Primescan® intraoral scanner we capture your teeth digitally – with no impression. We then design the restoration on the computer, mill it from a ceramic block in the Primemill® milling unit and fire it in the SpeedFire furnace. Inlays, partial crowns and crowns – even in high-strength zirconia – can therefore often be fitted in a single appointment, without a temporary.
