What is BruxZir®?

BruxZir® Solid Zirconia is a monolithic solid zirconia restoration with no porcelain overlay. More brawn than beauty, you'll be impressed by the esthetics of BruxZir when prescribed instead of posterior metal occlusal PFMs and full-cast metal restorations. BruxZir is virtually chip proof, making it the ideal restoration for bruxers, implant restorations and areas with limited occlusal space.

BruxZir Solid Zirconia crowns & bridges are made from the highest quality zirconia powder. We chemically and physically reprocess the powder to further reduce the zirconia particle sizes. BruxZir milling blanks are then created through a unique patent-pending process. Unlike conventional high-pressure milling blank manufacture, our processing gives BruxZir improved light transmission, which provides a lower, more natural shade value.

Designed and milled using CAD/CAM technology, BruxZir is sintered for 6.5 hours at 1,530 degrees Celsius. The final BruxZir restoration emerges nearly chip proof and is glazed to a smooth surface.

Indications

BruxZir Solid Zirconia is indicated for crowns, bridges, implants, inlays and onlays. It is an esthetic alternative to PFM metal occlusal/lingual or full-cast restorations. The chip proof durability of BruxZir is ideal for bruxers who have broken natural teeth or previous PFM restorations. BruxZir is also ideal when the patient lacks the preparation space for a PFM.

Patient Benefits

Chip-resistant, as it is made of solid zirconia with no porcelain overlay.
Glazed to a smooth surface to reduce plaque accumulation.
