Zirconia Retainers | Bremadent Dental Laboratory in London
The ‘Zirconia Retainer’ is an aesthetic, metal free, fixed alternative to the traditional ‘Bonded Wire Retainer’ and is used to maintain previous orthodontic treatment or to prevent undesirable movement of the teeth by splinting them together as a 'Perio Splint' with cement via the palatal or lingual surfaces of the anterior teeth.
The ‘Zirconia Retainer’ is 3D designed and milled from zirconia blocks via our in-house CAD/CAM milling machine and provides a high flexural strength that allows for a minimal material thickness with a variety of ‘Vita Shades’ to match the patients shade.
The ‘Zirconia Retainer’ is designed to seat above the cingulum areas and 1-2mm above the gingival areas of the lingual or palatal surfaces of anterior teeth to allow for hygiene and has pre-set cement space parameters for composite resin cementing.
Zirconia retainers on the upper are subject to occlusion in design parameters.
All cases are 'Scanned' and 'Designed' in 3D, which gives accurate and clearly defined parameters of the prepared teeth, margins, contact areas and occlusion captured precisely and locked for the 'Design'. Our technicians will then be able customise any areas of concern within the parameters and design the restoration with 'Natural Anatomy' from the locked parameters.
Bremadent 'Digital' is compatible with the following intraoral scanners: 3m, Sirona, Planscan, Trios, Itero, Carestream.
