How long can all-ceramic teeth last

The preservation time of all-ceramic teeth is relatively long, mainly because they do not contain metal elements, are the same as the natural color of the teeth, and cause very little damage to the gums, so all-ceramic teeth can be preserved for about 20 years. For all-ceramic teeth, the factors that affect their service life are related to our daily care methods and the quality of the all-ceramic teeth.

All-ceramic teeth are all-ceramic porcelain teeth, also known as all-ceramic crowns. The material does not contain any metal elements in the porcelain restoration. The color of the crown is similar to the natural color of real teeth and will not cause any irritation to the surrounding gum tissue. Compared with general non-precious metal porcelain teeth, long-term use will not cause blackening of gums or metallic odor in the mouth.

How many years can all-ceramic teeth last? All-ceramic crowns are divided into glass-ceramic all-ceramic teeth and zirconia and alumina all-ceramic teeth. They are all made of ceramic powder ground using CAD/CAM technology. The material is strong and stable, so all-ceramic teeth are durable and wear-resistant. As long as the doctor has excellent skills, the design plan is reasonable, and the operation is correct, the service life of all-ceramic teeth will be greatly improved. The service life of all-ceramic teeth for about 65% of the users is more than 20 years. If used properly and reasonably in daily life, it can last longer, possibly a lifetime.

What factors will affect the service life of all-ceramic teeth?

1. There are many brands and manufacturers of all-ceramic teeth, and the production processes used are different, resulting in different service lives of all-ceramic teeth on the market. So even if they are all-ceramic teeth, the prices can vary greatly due to different brands and craftsmanship. Sometimes you get what you pay for, and there is a reason why they are expensive. The most expensive teeth at present are made of zirconium dioxide all-ceramic teeth.

2. The service life of all-ceramic teeth is also closely related to the location where the all-ceramic teeth are repaired and daily eating habits. If the restored tooth needs to chew frequently and usually likes to eat hard food, the service life of the all-ceramic tooth will be reduced.

The above dentists introduced the factors that affect the service life of all-ceramic teeth, as well as how many years all-ceramic teeth can generally last. This is necessary as anything wears out over time and with daily use, the lifespan of the material will also shorten. Whether it is a real tooth or a restored all-ceramic crown, it will be worn out during daily use and has a certain service life. Finally, it is recommended that friends who want to use all-ceramic teeth to repair yellow teeth and small tooth defects can choose a better porcelain veneer restoration method instead of porcelain crown restoration.
