› “The use of CERCON Zirconia frameworks allows<br />
clinicians the necessary load-bearing capability<br />
(>1,300 MPa) required to support both single-unit<br />
<strong>and</strong> long-span restorations.”<br />
David A. Little, DDS<br />
Private practice, San Antonio, TX.<br />
CAD/CAM system has the ability to mill<br />
all-ceramic zirconia restoration copings,<br />
as well as to mill a new polyurethane<br />
material, CERCON Base Cast, <strong>and</strong> then<br />
burn it out to fabricate PFMs conventionally.<br />
Dental restorations from systems<br />
such as CERCON® not only produce<br />
exceedingly accurate scans <strong>and</strong> digital<br />
models—virtually matching the<br />
patient’s natural intraoral morphology—but<br />
they also allow clinicians <strong>and</strong><br />
technicians to provide faster service,<br />
Benefits of CERCON ®<br />
■ Accuracy—Fast, precise CAD<br />
scans to 10 µm with the CERCON®<br />
Eye laser scanner.<br />
■ Aesthetics—The natural translucency<br />
of CERCON® Zirconia provides<br />
an excellent aesthetic foundation,<br />
which is further enhanced with<br />
the fluorescence of Ceramco®<br />
PFZ porcelain.<br />
■ Performance —At over 1,300 MPa<br />
of flexural strength, CERCON®<br />
crowns <strong>and</strong> bridges have a higher<br />
fracture resistance than other allceramics<br />
<strong>and</strong> are suitable for anterior<br />
or posterior restorations up to 47 mm<br />
in length.<br />
■ Versatility—Offers dental laboratories<br />
versatility with Compartis, an<br />
outsourcing service, <strong>and</strong> CERCON®<br />
Cast, a resin block for milling PFM<br />
<strong>and</strong> other frameworks.<br />
■ Simplicity—CERCON® restorations<br />
are cementable or bondable<br />
<strong>and</strong> use the same conservative tooth<br />
preparation as PFMs.<br />
■ Confidence—Proven to withst<strong>and</strong><br />
the test of time with over<br />
10 years of clinical success <strong>and</strong> a<br />
seven-year warranty against zirconia<br />
framework breakage.<br />
