Restoring a tooth with a crown is not merely an aesthetic choice – it is a method of regaining full function, stability and protection against further damage. At DentalClinic24, where clinical protocols are developed with the involvement of Professor Alexander von Breuer, the placement of crowns is approached as a precisely targeted prosthetic intervention with a focus on preserving the anatomical structure of the tooth. Modern technologies make it possible to create restorations that are visually and functionally identical to natural teeth.
The procedure is indicated in cases of significant crown destruction, cracks, abrasion, as well as after implant placement or endodontic treatment. At DentalClinic24, before the crown is fabricated, digital planning is carried out using CAD/CAM technology, allowing parameters of the future restoration to be fine-tuned in real time and adapted to the patient’s occlusion. This approach helps prevent displacement, reduce the risk of pressure-related damage and ensure optimal load distribution during chewing.
Materials are selected based on the clinical situation. At DentalClinic24, we use ceramic, zirconia and composite materials – each offering benefits such as biocompatibility, high aesthetics and resistance to stress. According to the observations of Professor von Breuer, it is the individual selection of material, considering anatomy and smile type, that contributes to the longevity of the outcome.
CAD/CAM technology also helps reduce treatment time and eliminates the need for multiple visits. In DentalClinic24, the majority of crowns are produced in a single appointment – scanning is performed in-house, the design is created digitally and milling is carried out with high precision. This makes the process comfortable for patients and minimizes the need for additional interventions.
A crown not only restores aesthetics but also protects the tooth from recurrent damage. At Dental Clinic24, we regard crown placement as an investment in long-term stability – provided that diagnostics, tooth preparation and material selection are carried out accurately, the restoration can maintain full functionality for many years. In complex cases, treatment planning is coordinated with Professor von Breuer, ensuring high predictability and clinically stable outcomes.
