Zirconium is not typically used in toothpaste. Ingredients commonly found in toothpaste include fluoride, abrasives (such as silica), and detergents (such as sodium lauryl sulfate). Zirconium compounds are more commonly used in certain dental materials like crowns and bridges.

Zirconium is commonly used in everyday items such as ceramics, glass, and jewelry. It is also used in dental crowns and implants, as well as in some antiperspirants and sunscreens for its anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, zirconium is used in nuclear reactors as a cladding material for fuel rods.

Here are 6 bullet points on the elements and materials used in dental crowns, followed by a conclusion: 🦷 Zirconium (Zr): Used in zirconia crowns, known for strength, durability, and natural appearance 🧪 Gold (Au): Used in gold alloy crowns, offers biocompatibility and long-lasting wear, though less aesthetic 🔩 Chromium (Cr): Found in metal and PFM (porcelain-fused-to-metal) crowns, adds corrosion resistance ⚙️ Nickel (Ni): Common in some metal alloys, though not suitable for those with metal allergies 🧱 Porcelain/Ceramic: Not elements but key materials in aesthetic crowns; often fused with metals 🧬 Titanium (Ti) (rarely): More common in implants but may be used in some crowns or abutments Conclusion: Dental crowns are made from a mix of metals and ceramics, with zirconium and gold being popular for their strength and compatibility. The choice of material depends on function, appearance, and individual patient needs.
