What is the main difference?

Zirconium is stronger and slightly more opaque, which makes it dependable for larger smile makeover cases. E-Max delivers more translucency, so it is often preferred when the front teeth need a softer, more natural light effect.

How is the choice made?

The decision depends on your shade goals, current tooth structure, bite forces and the final shape you want. At Riviera Dental Studio, we support that decision with digital mock-ups and photo planning before treatment starts.
