Abstrakt:	In order to effectively address challenges related to anterior teeth restoration and achieve natural-looking results, considerations such as shape, size, gingival contour, and color are crucial. Due to an increasing desire for visually appealing alternatives that are free of metal, materials such as dental zirconia have become popular because of their superior aesthetics and mechanical characteristics. This case report presents clinical insights into anterior teeth rehabilitation with the use of layered zirconia fixed dental prostheses. It delves into the experiences associated with zirconia dental restorations on both endodontically treated and vital abutments, aiming to discern how various factors influence treatment outcomes. Beginning with the design of the restoration, its intricacies significantly impact its fit, strength, and overall durability. Moreover, the composition of zirconia used plays a pivotal role, as different formulations offer varying degrees of mechanical properties, influencing factors such as resilience and wear resistance. The shade selection is also scrutinized, as it directly affects the restoration's aesthetic integration with surrounding natural teeth, contributing to a more harmonious smile. Furthermore, the layering technique employed, particularly when additional porcelain or ceramic layers are applied, is essential for both cosmetic enhancement and structural integrity. Lastly, considerations of occlusion are paramount, ensuring proper alignment and contact between teeth to prevent premature wear and discomfort. By exploring these facets in zirconia restorations across different abutment types, this inquiry seeks to illuminate best practices for achieving favorable treatment outcomes in dental restoration procedures. The choice of zirconia composition, framework design, and shade must be carefully tailored to suit the characteristics of each individual abutment. This emphasizes the significance of adopting a tailored approach to tackle the distinct challenges posed by every clinical scenario. The manuscript provides detailed observations from a clinical case involving the restoration of anterior teeth utilizing monolithic zirconia-fixed dental prostheses. Through a combination of root canal treatment and composite buildup, successful restoration was achieved, with meticulous attention paid to aesthetic considerations. The utilization of computer-aided designing/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology in crafting zirconia restorations ensured precise fit and superior biocompatibility, contributing to the overall success of the treatment. The study underscores the importance of personalized treatment strategies in achieving optimal outcomes in anterior teeth restoration, emphasizing the need for careful consideration of various factors such as design, composition, and shade selection. Overall, the findings shed light on the potential of zirconia-based restorations in addressing the unique challenges associated with anterior teeth rehabilitation, offering valuable insights for dental practitioners striving to deliver aesthetically pleasing and functionally sound outcomes for their patients.
