BruxZir Solid Zirconia Patient Education

Patient Education From Glidewell Laboratories

When it's time for a new dental crown, many people want strong, esthetic restorations that look natural and don't break. Full-cast gold crowns & bridges are strong, but don't look at all like real teeth; porcelain metal restorations look better, but are prone to cracking and chipping. Today, patients are turning to BruxZir® Solid Zirconia for their crown & bridge restorations. BruxZir Solid Zirconia is made from nearly indestructible zirconia, making it ideal for those who have broken their natural teeth or porcelain restorations through bruxing or grinding. And when compared side-by-side to full-cast gold and porcelain metal crowns, BruxZir zirconia crowns are the most natural-looking choice. In this video, we look at the advantages of BruxZir Solid Zirconia, including how CAD/CAM technology creates restorations that fit perfectly with no bulky feeling in the mouth. You'll also see a BruxZir crown and porcelain fused to metal crown put to the Hammer Test...only one crown will survive!
