Abstract
This article describes a clinical case of discolored incisors that were treated by Zirconia based crowns. A 25-year-old female patient presented to the fixed Prosthodontics department. She requested the improvement of her impaired unaesthetic smile caused by the affected teeth. A comprehensive examination revealed that the central and lateral incisors (11 and 22) were non vital as a consequence of carious process. The lateral incisor was severely damaged and restored with resin material associating a metallic threaded post. The treatment plan included an endodontic re-treatment followed by free metal post and core build up and Zirconia based crowns.
