I have heard of Emax and Zirconia crown material, what are they?
The commonly known ceramic material Emax and zirconia are two ceramic systems developed by dental material companies. Emax is superior in aesthetic as it has translucency close to the natural tooth and hence is ideal material for restoring front teeth which are generally more translucent than other teeth in the mouth. Whereas zirconia is superior in strength and fracture resistance and hence is the ideal material for restoring molar teeth.
