Natural Colour Gradient, Multi-Layered Zirconium
A zirconium block with built-in colour layers that mimic the natural transition from enamel to dentine. The highest aesthetics of any zirconium, with light transmission close to a real tooth — ideal for front teeth and smile design. CAD/CAM digital production from premium German/Swiss blocks, with a 5-year written guarantee.
The Most Natural Zirconium
Multi-layered (multilayer) zirconium is produced from a special block that contains several pre-built colour layers within it. These layers reproduce the natural gradient of a real tooth — a more saturated dentine tone near the gum flowing into a translucent enamel tone at the edge.
Because the colour transition is built into the block itself, it does not need a separate porcelain or glass-ceramic veneer to look natural. This gives it higher translucency and the most realistic result of any zirconium, making it the preferred choice for front teeth, smile design and Hollywood smiles. It is 100% metal-free, biocompatible and CAD/CAM produced.

How Is Multi-Layered Zirconium Made?
A precise, aesthetics-focused treatment process from digital planning to bonding.
Digital Planning
A digital scan, smile analysis and shade selection. A design preview lets you see the natural colour gradient and shape before treatment.
Session 1Tooth Prep & Impression
Under local anaesthesia the tooth is precisely prepared. An impression is taken with a digital scanner and temporary crowns are fitted.
Session 1CAD/CAM Production
The crown is milled from a multi-layered zirconium block so the enamel-to-dentine gradient is built in, then finished and polished for a natural shine.
3–5 DaysTry-In & Bonding
The crowns are tried in and colour, fit and aesthetics are checked. After your approval they are permanently bonded. The 5-year guarantee begins.
Session 2The Aesthetic Peak of Zirconium
With a built-in colour gradient and higher translucency, multi-layered zirconium delivers the most lifelike result of any zirconium — the first choice for front-tooth aesthetics and smile design.
Natural Colour Gradient
Built-in layers reproduce the enamel-to-dentine transition of a real tooth, for a colour flow that looks completely natural.
High Translucency
More translucent than monolithic zirconium, transmitting light like natural enamel for a vivid, realistic look.
100% Metal-Free
No allergy risk and no grey line as the gum recedes. Fully biocompatible with the gum and surrounding tissues.
Durable & Reliable
Keeps the strength zirconium is known for while adding aesthetics — a balanced solution for the smile zone.
CAD/CAM Precision
Digital scanning and computer-aided milling for a millimetric fit to the tooth and gum.

Common Questions About Multi-Layered Zirconium
The questions asked most often before treatment.
Both are milled from solid zirconium blocks. Monolithic is a single uniform colour and prioritises maximum strength — ideal for back teeth and bruxism. Multi-layered has several built-in colour layers that recreate the enamel-to-dentine gradient, giving higher translucency and a more natural look — ideal for front teeth and smile design. The choice depends on whether strength or aesthetics is the priority for that tooth.
Front teeth are the most visible part of your smile, where colour and light behaviour matter most. The built-in layers of multi-layered zirconium reproduce the natural gradient and translucency of a real tooth, so the result blends in seamlessly. This is why it's the leading zirconium choice for the aesthetic zone and Hollywood smiles.
Multi-layered zirconium is still very strong and durable — far stronger than a PFM crown — but its slightly higher translucency means it is a little less strong than pure monolithic zirconium. For most front-tooth and smile-zone cases this strength is more than enough. For heavy-load back teeth or bruxism, monolithic is preferred.
Both are highly aesthetic and metal-free. All-ceramic (E.max) is a glass-ceramic with very high translucency, excellent for single front teeth. Multi-layered zirconium combines strong zirconium with a natural colour gradient, so it works well for both aesthetics and slightly higher load, and is well suited to multi-tooth smile designs and bridges. We recommend the best option after your examination.
With quality material, correct application and regular care, multi-layered zirconium crowns can last 15–20 years or more. Their lifespan depends on oral hygiene, any teeth-grinding habit and chewing forces. At Kadıgil longevity is secured with a 5-year written guarantee.
Multi-layered zirconium is completed in 2 sessions. The first session is tooth preparation and impression-taking; the second is try-in and bonding. Lab production takes 3–5 days. For international patients, a total stay of 5–7 days in Antalya is enough. We help organise your accommodation and transfers.
The price of multi-layered zirconium varies by the number of teeth and the block brand used. It is priced slightly above standard zirconium because of its higher aesthetics, and is excellent value for the smile zone. A tailored written quote is provided after examination. There are no hidden fees, and instalments are available.
