What is Zirconium Teeth?

 

Zirconium is a white metal alloy. Used to replace the back metal. Previously used in different areas, this alloy has been used in dental coating applications because of its aesthetics and durability.

Metal alloy coatings and fillings may cause taste changes and odors in the mouth, but this type of coating does not have this problem.
