The Zr is Jensen XT and the porcelain is e.max Ceram layered with enamels only. I'm a one man lab, I do my own designing with Exocad but I outsource my milling.
Al said this thread is for sharing cases. This was an implant case where the patient wanted it to be like his teeth before he lost them, including diastemas. Solid Zirconia with minimally layered crowns and solid gingiva colored with Miyo Pink. I forgot to take pictures after the Ti bases...

Since I would be...
