Zirconia crowns are synthetic crowns designed to cover damaged or weakened teeth, concealing the visible portion above the gum line. Richter’s dentists recommend these crowns for patients with one or more damaged teeth or those requiring large cavity fillings.
Types of Crowns
There are a variety of crown materials, including metal-ceramic, metal, porcelain, or a combination of these materials. The choice depends on tooth location, visible space, and the desired balance between strength and appearance. Our dentist thoroughly examines the oral cavity during a dental consultation, determining the most suitable crown type based on dental implant location and patient preferences. At our dental clinic in Tbilisi, installing a metal-ceramic artificial crown is offered – a common, durable, and cost-effective choice.
Purposes of Zirconia Crowns
Zirconia crowns serve several purposes, including:
Tooth Protection: Addressing tooth weakening due to extensive cavities or root canal procedures.
Restoration of Form and Function: Repairing broken or damaged tooth portions.
Cosmetic Purposes: Providing colour to discoloured teeth.
Supporting Dental Bridges: Supporting dental bridges and replacing missing teeth.
Installation Process of Zirconia Crown
- Dental Implant Placement: A small titanium post (dental implant) is surgically placed into the jawbone, replacing the missing tooth’s root. This implant integrates with the jawbone during healing, establishing a stable base.
- Abutment: After healing, a supporting abutment is fixed on top of the dental implant.
- Placement of Artificial Crown: The zirconia crown, crafted to mimic natural teeth, is attached to the abutment, completing the dental implantation process.
Our Dental Clinic specialises in efficient and effective aesthetic dentistry procedures. Apart from zirconium crowns, we offer tooth restoration, teeth straightening with braces, and smile enhancement with veneers.

Questions & answers
Frequently Asked Questions
Crown pricing in Tbilisi depends on the material — zirconia, E-max and metal-ceramic differ — and on whether the tooth first needs root canal treatment or a post. Crowns in Georgia cost considerably less than in Western Europe. Our prosthodontist confirms the price per crown after examining the tooth.
Zirconia is stronger, contains no metal and transmits light more like a natural tooth, which makes it the usual choice for visible front teeth. Metal-ceramic remains a durable and more economical option for back teeth. If you have had a grey line appear at the gum with an older crown, that is the metal margin, and zirconia avoids it.
A well-fitted crown commonly lasts ten to fifteen years or longer. What usually fails is not the crown but the tooth underneath — new decay at the margin or gum recession — so hygiene and regular check-ups matter more than the material choice.
A filling is enough when the remaining tooth structure is strong. A crown becomes the right answer when too little healthy tooth is left to support a filling, after root canal treatment, or when a tooth is cracked and needs to be held together. We will show you on the X-ray why a crown is being recommended.
Usually two: one to prepare the tooth and take a digital scan or impression, and a second to fit the finished crown, with a temporary crown in between. Patients travelling to Tbilisi can often have both stages arranged within a single trip — tell us your dates when booking.
