Zirconia has emerged as a transformative material in modern dentistry, offering an exceptional combination of mechanical strength, biocompatibility, and esthetic potential. This book provides a comprehensive overview of zirconia, tracing its evolution from an industrial ceramic to a cornerstone biomaterial in restorative and prosthetic dentistry. The clinical applications of zirconia across prosthodontics, implantology, orthodontics, and endodontics are critically examined, highlighting its superior performance and long-term reliability. Key challenges, including low-temperature degradation, bonding limitations, and veneer chipping, are also discussed to provide a balanced perspective. Emphasis is placed on recent advancements such as high-translucency zirconia, multilayered systems, and emerging digital workflows that enhance both function and esthetics. By integrating scientific principles with clinical relevance, this book serves as a valuable resource for understanding the current status and future potential of zirconia in dentistry.
