In certain clinical cases the traditional ceramic E-Max crown or veneers are not recommended. This would be the case with patients that are heavy teeth grinders, bruxers and clinchers. In the past, dentists would use gold crowns or porcelain fused to metal crowns for these demanding cases. Today, we have more esthetic and durable options with the use of zirconia. Dr Helal recommends The BruxZir® solid Zirconia crown. It is the number one prescribed zirconia crown which is strong and durable enough to be used in cases such as severe bruxers and teeth grinders, thus lessoning the chance of crown fracture due to the extreme forces of teeth grinding. The BruxZir® crown is an excellent esthetic alternative to both the traditional porcelain fused to metal crown and the gold crown.
