Hii sir Zirconia crowns are tooth coloured crowns which give you a natural appearance than metal ceramic crowns. Both are nearly equal in strength and durability. The cost of Zirconia crowns is based on type of material and place. Basically it will cost around 7000-8000 (Starting). Sir if it is the front tooth you definitely need to go for Zirconia crowns for your appearance but for the back side its your decision sir.

Yes, zirconia caps (crowns) are a good and strong option for damaged or root-canal-treated teeth. They look natural and, with proper care, can last many years. The cost is usually around ₹7,000–₹18,000 per tooth, depending on the clinic and type of zirconia.
Next Steps
Please get the tooth examined by a dentist first. They will check how much healthy tooth is left and whether a crown is actually needed. Some amount of the tooth has to be shaped to fit the crown properly.
Health Tips
A zirconia crown does not itself cause decay, but decay can still develop around the edges if food/plaque accumulates or if the crown doesn’t fit properly. Maintain good brushing and flossing and have regular dental check-ups.
With a properly fitted crown and good oral hygiene, zirconia is generally a safe and durable choice.

Zirconia crowns are one of the best materials you can select for your back teeth used for chewing. They are biocompatible, has higher strength and is white in colour (available in teeth shades). The price range is variable and more than metal or PFM crowns. Depends upon the kind of lab your dentist is selecting and if the lab is providing any warranty on the material. Better the lab work, more the price range.

Hello sir,
Zirconia crowns are tooth coloured ,strong, durable and generally a good option, often lasting around 5-15+ years with proper care.
Zirconia costs about 8k -15k per tooth, though prices vary by dentist and quality.
The crown itself does not decay , but decay can develop underneath or around its edges if the crown doesn't fit well or oral hygiene is poor.
