Color matching might be a problem, make sure your are pleased with the limited color choice. Porcelain might be the better selection for a front tooth.
Zirconia is a good, strong material for dental crowns. As a material, Zirconia provides excellent durability. Unfortunately, Zirconia (while it is tooth-coloured), is not an ideal esthetic material for front teeth.
This is because Zirconia has a more opaque, chalky appearance. It is therefore impossible to match to nieghbouring front teeth in both shade and translucency.
E-Max and IPS Empress porcelains are generally the porcelain materials of choice for beautiful and esthetic restorations on your front teeth.
