What's the difference between porcelain and zirconia crowns?
These are two different materials and used in different situations. First off they are both tooth colored materials and there are different variations of each material. Zirconia is a much harder material then the strongest porcelain on the market. Porcelain acts much more like tooth structure and can be bonded to the tooth leading to potentially more conservative restorative work. You would have to have your personal situation to see what material would be right for you. You are more then welcome to call the office for a complimentary consultation to talk over your options.
