Over the last two decades, a shift towards the indication of all-ceramic restorations has been sought the dentistry to meet higher esthetic demands. Having an ideal material that combines the indications of the others materials and limits their disadvantages, is the goal of the researchers who try to satisfy our needs. Recently, zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate glass ceramic was introduced in the market. Indeed, thanks to its interesting mechanical and optical properties, its fine and homogeneous microstructure, and its minimal wear of the opposing teeth after optimal polishing, this ceramic milled in monolithic restoration seems to outperform lithium disilicate and conventional zirconia crowns.
