Not sure of the wear factor yet, but something to keep an eye on. The "bruxer" type of crown idea. With my experience thus far, e.max is definitely a reliable material for the challenged occlusal situation as long as there is adequate ceramic thickness. From what I am hearing in the industry, part of a material's wear compatibility factor is defined by the smoothness and polishability of the material. Zirconia is a very smooth material.

Final photograph of e.max B1 HT restorations on #27, 28, and 29. Labial thickness is 0.4 mm. Precise margin imaging yields precise ceramic margins. The "feather like" margins can now be achieve with the strength integrity of e.max. Mill margin at no less than 0.3 mm with Parameter Margin thickness at 100. Polish back with silicone polishing wheel (see Chapter 4 and 9) to achieve
