We know all of the pros and cons of working with each system and can guide you on the best way to move forward. Here are a few key properties to be aware of:

Zirconia (coping with layered porcelain) Crowns/Bridges

Coping is very strong at approximately 1200 Mpa.
Layered porcelain is as strong as any other porcelain system at an average lesser than 250MPa.
It’s very good at blocking out dark abutments, metal posts and implants.
Layering porcelain technique gives more of a natural depth of colour and translucency

Monolithic Zirconia Crowns/Bridges

No layering of porcelain and made to be a little more translucent than zirconia copings at 40%.
Approximately 1000MPa flex strength, but still stronger than layering porcelain
Good at blocking dark discolored abutments and can do full-round house bridgework

Monolithic Zirconia HT Crowns/Bridges

No layering as well for a uniformly strong material, but slightly lower strength at approx. 750MPa and 50% translucency
Can do up to 3 unit anterior bridges and single posterior units
Does not block dark abutments as well
