Anterior Bridge Replacement with BruxZir Utilizing the IOS FastScan Optical Impression System

Indications for BruxZir full-contour zirconia have previously been limited to posterior crown & bridge restorations as an esthetic alternative to metal occlusal PFMs and full-cast restorations.  However, many doctors have inquired about prescribing BruxZir Solid Zirconia in the anterior.

That’s exactly what we did in this unique clinical presentation. Watch as Dr. Michael DiTolla prepares for a 3-unit anterior BruxZir bridge utilizing the Rapid Anesthesia Technique, Two-Cord Impression Technique combined with the IOS FastScan Digital Impression System and Reverse Preparation Technique.

Watch this 15-minute video to see the outcome – the results are surprising!

    Although aesthetically the bridge doesn't look as good as ceramic, it certainly looks a lot stronger. It seems like BruxZir provides a lot more flexibility for that type of procedure. I'll have to talk to some other dentists to see what they think about it.
