Choose our porcelain-fused-to-zirconia restorations when your patients require the advanced esthetics that are not afforded by monolithic zirconia. They are created by layering beautiful porcelain over a zirconia substructure and provide both strength and esthetics. Their strength is comparable to PFMs, but completely eliminate the dark line that can appear along the gingiva. Our technicians are trained in the proper use of CAD/CAM technology to ensure an ideal fit for every PFZ restoration.
