Veneers
Zirconia Veneers
Composed of zirconium dioxide, Zirconia Veneers are the newest entrant to the veneers market. This 100% biocompatible material is the same ceramic material used in non-metallic medical joint replacements.
Zirconia is extremely strong without having the bulky appearance of porcelain. It is resistant to wear and difficult to crack. More flexural resistance than other glass ceramic dental materials currently on the market make it a superior choice for bruxism patients.
Zirconia veneers’ natural appearance is created by milling from pressed solid blocks that are free of voids and imperfections. Finishing via baking at ultra-high temperatures produces a glistening surface that is beautiful and nearly indestructible. Excellent retention by the natural tooth structure using resin ionomer cements.
Advantages to Zirconia Veneers
- 100% biocompatible material
- Strong without bulky appearance
- Superior choice for bruxism patients
Delivery and Veneer Cementation
- Veneer cementation is achieved by adhesive, self-adhesive, or conventional cementation (when applying to dentin), and depends on the specific type of preparation and indication. Enamel bonding using a resin ionomer cement is the recommended and preferred choice for veneers.
Color Choices
- A broad selection of shades, corresponding to the VITA shade guide, is available for IPS e.Max or BruxZir Zirconia.
- Bleaching shades are also available. Internal and external stains can be applied by our technicians for a completely customized look for every veneer.
