Smile is the first contact in human relationship. With the trend of “media smile” in our society today, esthetic concerns of patients are increasing. To achieve excellence in the delivery of dental care, dentists rely on the vast array of modern advances in dental materials and restoration fabrication technologies. Recent advances in technology and dental materials have prompted the use of all-ceramic crowns which offers the potential for improved aesthetic results compared to conventional ceramo-metal crowns. However, they are mechanically weaker, therefore, to overcome such shortcomings, newer ceramic materials like Zirconia have been established during past few years which have better mechanical and optical properties. This case report summarizes the scalpel depigmentation and crown lengthening followed by Zirconia crown for achieving the best possible esthetics.
