Introduction

Restoring damaged or missing teeth is an essential aspect of modern dentistry. Advances in materials and techniques have improved dentists’ ability to achieve predictable, long-lasting outcomes. One such advance is the use of chairside esthetic zirconia crowns, which provide excellent strength and durability without compromising esthetics.
