Layered Zirconia Crown
A zirconia core with hand-layered feldspathic porcelain, used in the aesthetic zone where a monolithic crown would look too opaque.
The framework is designed with a 0.5 mm cut-back and anatomically supported porcelain, so the layered ceramic is not carrying the full occlusal load on its own. Incisal translucency and mamelon structure are built by hand.
This is our standard choice for anterior single units and for the aesthetic segment of a bridge, where the patient's own teeth set a visible reference.
