Since the introduction and successful implementation of zirconium oxide in dentistry it is finally possible to achieve beautiful esthetics without compromising strength. Even though it has only recently started to gain popularity among dental practitioners, zirconium-oxide (zirconia) is not a new material. It has been used in medicine for quite some time. Since it is 100% biocompatible, zirconia is the material of choice for numerous medical applications. Perhaps, its most important role is in production of artificial hip and knee joints.

When it comes to strength and durability, porcelain fused to metal (PFM) restorations are still considered to be the most reliable and most predictable by many clinicians. PFM restorations have served our profession for nearly 50 years. They earned their reputation and in the process won the trust of many. Still to this day, when strength and durability are our primary concerns, as they always are in the matters of really long span bridge works or precision sensitive attachment cases, PFM would be a number one choice for many and rightfully so.
