Full Contour Zirconia | Bremadent Dental Laboratory in London
‘Full Contoured Zirconia Crowns (Solid Zirconia)’ are CAD/CAM milled zirconia restorations which is stained glazed for natural anatomy effects with no layered ceramic. The flexural strength of 1200 mpa provides high strength and durability whilst being effective with minimal inter occlusal space. it’s a cost effective solution as there is no alloy charge and is up to 44% translucent at 1mm thickness.
Full contoured zirconia crowns are scanned and designed in 3D, which gives accurate and clearly defined parameters with the prepared tooth, margins, contact areas and occlusion captured precisely and locked for the design process. Our technicians will then be able customise any areas of concern within the parameters and design the full contoured crown with natural anatomy from the locked parameters.
The full contoured crown is then CAD/CAM milled in-house from a pre-shaded zirconia blank . Once milled, It is then fitted to a working model and a solid model to minimize variables. Once fitted, it is stained and glazed for natural anatomy effects. The restoration is then quality controlled for fit, aesthetics, occlusion, contact areas and margins.
'Bremadent Digital' service has the latest digital equipment to accommodate digital dentistry services which are scanned directly from analogue (plaster) models or digitally sent to us from the leading intra-oral scanners from any Dentist around the world instantly (3m, Sirona, Planscan, Trios, Itero, Carestream)
Indications:
Zirconia is ideal for inlay/onlays, full contoured crowns, full contour bridges, copings, frameworks, retainers, custom implant abutments, hybrid bridges and layered ceramic crowns. It is chip-resistant, as it is made of solid zirconia with no porcelain overlay and glazed to a smooth surface to reduce plaque accumulation.
Technical features:
Zirconia is a biocompatible material and has a flexural strength of 1200 mpa. It’s available in traditional ‘Vita Shades’ and is up to 44% translucent at 1mm thickness.
What is monolithic?
A monolithic restoration (also known as a full contour restoration) is one that is manufactured from a single material for the fully anatomic replacement of lost tooth structure. Additional staining (followed by glaze firing if ceramic materials are used) may be performed to enhance the appearance of the restoration.
