 Let’s be honest, digital dentistry has revolutionised how we work. Intraoral scanners (IO Scans) have made impressions faster, cleaner, and in many cases, more accurate than traditional putty impressions. But with this transformation comes a new set of challenges, especially when crowns don’t seat the way we expect.
At Bremadent Dental Laboratory we see it, we solve it, and we want to help you minimise remakes, save chairtime and keep patients smiling.

 Choosing the right restorative material shouldn’t feel like a gamble, but let’s be honest, sometimes it does. Zirconia or Emax? Strength or aesthetics? Masking or translucency? We hear these questions daily at Bremadent Dental Laboratory, and the answer is rarely black and white. It’s about understanding the case, the patient, and the material properties, then making a decision that delivers both function and aesthetics.
This guide is designed to simplify that decision-making process, giving you a clear, practical framework you can apply chairside.  Every now and then, a case lands on the bench that makes you pause, scratch your head, and say, “Right… what’s really going on here then?” This was one of those cases. Not because it was overly complex on paper, but because it refused to behave in a predictable, textbook way.
A dentist reached out to us at Bremadent Dental Laboratory after trying multiple labs. The feedback she kept getting was vague at best. No one could clearly explain why the case kept failing. The patient had an existing denture and originally retained a single premolar on the upper left-hand side. That one tooth was eventually extracted, and an addition was carried out. From that point onwards, everything changed. The bite was completely off. A new denture was prescribed. Same issue. Another lab tried. Same result again.  At Bremadent Dental Laboratory, everything we do is built around one simple idea: helping dentists deliver better outcomes, more efficiently, with less stress. We know that behind every case is a patient, a schedule, a reputation, and often a time pressure that no one warned you about at dental school. Our mission is not just words on a wall. It is a working framework that shapes how we support dental practices across the UK every single day. Here is what that looks like in real terms and why it matters to you and your team.
 At Bremadent Dental Laboratory, we work closely with dentists and dental teams across the UK to deliver full arch implant restorations that are aesthetic, functional, and built to last. One of the most common challenges we see, however, is ceramic or zirconia fracture on these cases.
If you have ever had a full arch implant restoration chip, crack, or fail unexpectedly, it is rarely down to bad luck. There is almost always a technical reason behind it. Understanding these reasons is key to improving long-term outcomes for your patients. Let’s walk through the science and the practical realities behind why these failures happen, and more importantly, how to avoid them. |
