Our goal is to provide you with a product that should require a minimal amount of adjustment. Proper preparation design as with all ceramic restorations is essential for marginal integrity and fit. The more information you can provide us for the scan and design the better the results.
If adjustments to the margins, connectors or pontics are needed before applying porcelain, you can use the following:
As with all ceramic materials, avoid generating heat while adjusting.
In designing Zirconia bridge frameworks the height and width of connectors can be problematic. Most manufactures recommend 9 square mm connectors and do not guarantee the frameworks when they are below minimums. Each of our systems provides different design parameters to overcome some of the problems we encounter during the design and construction process. Coping thicknesses should be no less than .4mm for anterior units and .5mm for the posterior.
For press techniques the minimum thickness must be .4mm.
