Zirconia Layered is 100% metal-free, a feature that prevents gingival darkening and removes the possibility of exposing metalic margins if gum recession begins. Zirconia Layered has beautiful, natural looking esthetics, and are extremely strong for multi-unit* bridges where IPS e.max cannot be used. By layering porcelain of the facials and buccal only, even long span* bridges can look amazing.
