A ceramic crown or bridge today is much more than a prosthesis. It is a precision restoration, custom-made from a digital scan of your mouth, machined by a computerized milling machine in a block of high-performance ceramic or zirconia, and placed with a fit precision that traditional artisan technique cannot always achieve.
Clinique Dentaire Longchamp in Casablanca is equipped with a CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design and Manufacturing) unit that allows it to produce these restorations in-house, in 24 to 48 hours. This is not a commercial promise: it is a real technical capability that concretely changes your care experience.
Feldspathic ceramic is the most esthetic material: its translucency and chromatic variations perfectly mimic natural enamel. It is ideal for veneers and crowns on highly visible anterior teeth, but requires minimal dental preparation and an expert laboratory to be well executed.
E.max (lithium disilicate) combines mechanical resistance superior to feldspathic ceramic with very satisfactory esthetics. It is the material of choice for all-ceramic crowns in moderate-stress zones (premolars, light molars).
Zirconia is the most resistant material. In its ultra-translucent version, it achieves remarkable esthetic quality while offering fracture resistance that other ceramics cannot match. Estimated lifespan: fifteen to twenty-five years according to studies. It is our first choice for most posterior restorations and for bridges.
A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by resting on adjacent teeth, which are prepared to serve as pillars. A prosthetic structure spans the empty space. In zirconia or ceramic, the result is natural and invisible.
A bridge is a relevant solution when the pillar teeth need restoration anyway, or when an implant is contraindicated. Its main disadvantage: progressive bone resorption under the bridge, in the absence of an artificial root that stimulates the bone.
At Clinique Dentaire Longchamp, bridges are made by CAD/CAM with millimetric cervical adjustment that guarantees the seal of the restoration. A bridge that leaks at the joint inevitably causes cavities on the pillar teeth in the following years.
If you need a crown or bridge, the technology available at Clinique Dentaire Longchamp guarantees you a precision result, natural esthetics, and maximum durability.
