What is The Difference Between Zircon and E-Max Crowns?
Dental crowns are a reliable and effective solution for restoring damaged or weakened teeth. At Royal Dental Care®, we specialize in metal-free prostheses, offering premium zircon and e-max crowns. These advanced solutions ensure durable, natural-looking, and biocompatible restorations tailored to meet your dental needs.
Whether you’re in Alexandria or traveling from abroad, we warmly welcome you to experience world-class care and achieve exceptional results with zircon and e-max crowns.
What Are Zircon Crowns?
Zircon crowns are made from zirconium dioxide, a material celebrated for its strength and resilience. These crowns blend seamlessly with your smile, ensuring durability and a natural appearance.
Ideal for:
- Molars and back teeth where strength is essential.
- Replacing older crowns that contain metal for a seamless, modern finish.
- Completing dental implants with a natural look.
What Are E-Max Crowns?
E-max crowns are crafted from lithium disilicate ceramic, known for its translucency and lifelike aesthetics. While not as strong as zircon, they are perfect for visible teeth, offering unmatched beauty.
Ideal for:
- Front teeth (incisors and canines) for a radiant, natural appearance.
- Patients seeking the highest aesthetic standards.
- Cases requiring minimal tooth preparation.
