 If you’ve been practicing dentistry for more than a decade, you’ll remember a time when zirconia was spoken about in slightly hushed tones. Strong, yes. Reliable, mostly. Beautiful? Debatable. Fast forward to today and zirconia is no longer the mysterious new kid in the lab. It’s the backbone of modern restorative dentistry and one of the most requested materials we fabricate at Bremadent Dental Laboratory.
This article is a practical, no-nonsense deep dive into zirconia. Where it comes from, how it evolved in dentistry, what the science actually says, how it’s used today, and the real-world differences between layered and full contour monolithic zirconia. No hype. No fluff. Just solid, usable knowledge for dentists and dental teams.

 When it comes to protecting teeth, easing muscle tension, and helping patients finally get a good night’s sleep, Michigan and Tanner splints are two of the most trusted solutions available. As a dental laboratory that has been crafting high quality appliances since 1969, we have seen just how transformative a well made splint can be. They may not look glamorous, but they certainly know how to keep teeth out of trouble. Think of them as the quiet heroes working overnight while your patient dreams peacefully of a world without jaw pain.
This guide walks you through what these splints are, how they work, who they help, and why partnering with a high quality lab makes all the difference.  Digital impressions are now the daily driver for many restorative and ortho workflows. The right scanner should feel intuitive in the hand, play nicely with your lab, and return its investment through fewer remakes and quicker chair time. Below I review five scanners dentists in the UK ask us about most. I include typical current prices so you can compare like for like. Prices are indicative and usually quoted ex VAT unless stated. If you want the lab view from people who process these files every day, that is us at Bremadent and we are happy to speak.
