It varies case by case. I would consult with a board certified prosthodontist about what is best for you
Emax
The most aesthetic crown material available today are either lithium disilicate or zirconia. Each has a specific advantage and disadvantage. Both can be veneered with Porcelain to greatly improve the final esthetic appearance of the new crown(s). Good luck!

Layered porcelain is usually the best looking but not the strongest. Zirconia crowns are strong but not as luminescent as feldspathic or lithium disilicate or emax crowns. A good compromise between strength and cosmetics is EMAX. But there are differences in opinion from one practitioner to another and from one lab to another as well.
