Zirconia crowns are among the most durable dental restorations available, but they still require proper care to reach their full 15–25 year lifespan. Here’s exactly how to maintain your zirconia crown.
Daily Care Routine for Zirconia Crowns
- Brush twice daily with a soft-bristle toothbrush and non-abrasive fluoride toothpaste
- Floss daily around the crown to remove plaque at the gum margin
- Use an interdental brush if there are gaps around the crown
- Rinse with an antibacterial mouthwash to prevent gum disease around the crown
Foods and Habits to Avoid
- Avoid chewing ice, hard candies, pens, or fingernails
- Reduce sticky foods (toffee, chewing gum) that can dislodge crowns
- Do not use your teeth to open packaging
- If you grind teeth at night, use a custom night guard to protect your crown
Regular Dental Check-ups
Visit your dentist every 6 months for professional cleaning and crown inspection. Your dentist will check the bite, crown margins, and surrounding gum tissue to catch any issues early.
What to Do If Your Crown Feels Loose or Cracks
If your crown feels loose, has a sharp edge, or you notice gum swelling around it, call your dentist immediately. Do not attempt home repairs with over-the-counter dental cement for more than 24–48 hours as a temporary fix.
