Al, amazing work!
However, I am having hard time with occlusal color for emax posterior crown. It always turn out to be very monochromatic regardless of the thickness of incisor porcelain that I put(usually around 1 mm or less thickness). It's always temporary crown like appearance.

Can you help me?(preferably without using strong white snow cap color on top) Thanks.

Even on monolithic crowns, with your excellent contours, morphology and glaze, I don't see any of them coming back.

Yes I tell docs I have to have prep shade pics.
The black dots are just to see the trans for the lab pics.

Al, your work reminds me of Aoshima's work in the mouth, a soft, smooth, natural look, especially with these monolithic cases. A Noritake Luster look. Very nice.

If I ever need any crowns for myself, can I send them to you? Your work is fabulous!
