investigating the effect of glazing and polishing on the color difference between natural teeth and all ceramic crowns made from celtra press (zirconia reinforced lithium silicate ceramic).
Two groups of patients will be selected according to special inclusion criteria N=5 in each group total of 10 patients, one of the two groups will receive a glazed zirconia reinforced lithium silicate ''celtra press'' crowns and the other group will receive a polished ones of the same material , after crowns delivery color difference (ΔE) between the natural teeth and the celtra press crown will be measured by a spectrophotometer device (intra oral) and patient satisfaction will be recorded.

a full coverage crown in esthetic area made from celtra press ceramic( zirconia reinforced lithium silicate) and finished by just polishing
a full coverage crown in esthetic area made from celtra press ceramic( zirconia reinforced lithium silicate) and finished by glazing
the polished and glazed all ceramic crowns will be compared by the contralateral natural teeth
color match
Color match will be measured using "United states pulplic health service " system . Scale system : * Alpha : Excellent colour match and shade between restoration and adjacent tooth, restoration almost invisible * Bravo : Slightly mismatching between the restoration and the adjacent tooth, which is in the normal range of tooth colour, translucence, and/or shade * Charlie : Obvious mismatch, beyond the normal range * Delta : Gross mismatch/aesthetically displeasing colour, shade, and/or translucence
Time frame: immediately after crown delivery
Color difference
The color difference (ΔE) will be measured using spectrophotometer
Time frame: immediately after crown delivery
