Clinical dentistry by Michael C. DiTolla, DDS, FAGD
Before
After
-
Case Description: This patient fractured off the distolingual cusp. BruxZir Solid Zirconia was prescribed.
-
Case Description: The broken composite inlay was replaced with a high-strength BruxZir inlay. BruxZir can be used for inlays and onlays, as well as for crowns & bridges.
-
Case Description: When a patient generates enough occlusal force to break a porcelain-fused-to-metal restoration, BruxZir is a great replacement crown choice.
-
Case Description: This patient fractured a porcelain all-ceramic crown on the second molar and chipped the first molar. Both crowns were replaced with BruxZir Solid Zirconia.
-
Case Description: The patient had always disliked the metal occlusal on this PFM. When it became necessary to replace the metal occlusal PFM, lifelike BruxZir Solid Zirconia was chosen as a replacement.
-
Case Description: This endodontically treated tooth had a fractured mesial marginal ridge and multiple fractures. Monolithic BruxZir Solid Zirconia crown was selected for its chip-proof durability.
-
Case Description: This endodontically treated molar had a large amalgam and several fractures necessitating a full-coverage BruxZir Solid Zirconia crown.
-
Case Description: The patient had chipped the distal surface of the PFM. It was decided to replace the PFM with a high-strength BruxZir Solid Zirconia crown.
-
Case Description: When this patient required an onlay to replace a broken cusp, cast gold was suggested but the patient declined. BruxZir Solid Zirconia was used instead due to its strength and improved esthetics.
-
Case Description: The patient's previous dentist had prescribed a predominantly cast metal bridge when the patient fractured the porcelain on each of the abutment teeth on the previous bridge. When it came time to replace the bridge, the patient wanted a more esthetic replacement that wouldn not break. Porcelain fused to metal had fractured before, so a high-strength BruxZir Solid Zircona bridge was used to give the best combination of strength and esthetics.
-
Case Description: This patient had a number of existing PFM restorations in the anterior, but tooth #8 & #9 were unrestored. Tooth #9 had a previous root canal and a lingual fracture next to the access opening. A full-coverage anterior BruxZir Solid Zirconia crown was placed on the tooth.
