yes! they work well as long as they are not same day delivery. Same day delivery has a 78% three year failure rate so let the laboratory make it.
Yes, they are. They are a form of a ceramic crown. Zirconium makes a good choice for dental crowns because it is chemically unreactive. They have great translucent properties, which make them one of the nicest cosmetic crowns for Anterior Crowns.
Yes. But they require a lot more tooth structure to be removed, and in my opinion, they are not very aesthetic. They are much harder to work with if you have to work on the tooth again.
Therefore, they are not my first choice. I prefer the tried-and-true porcelain fused to metal or PFM crown.

Zirconia crows offer excellent fit and extreme strength. They are the best material today for crowns in the back of the mouth. They are completely safe.
