Crowns & Bridges in theDigital Workflow

Crowns and Bridges are the most frequent restoration types within the fixed prosthetic segment. They can be made of various materials, e.g. dental alloys and all-ceramic materials.

In the field of all-ceramics, zirconium oxide is a leading material. It is an all ceramic (metal free) material and offers excellent properties for dental use: Superior toughness, strength, and fatigue resistance, in addition to wear properties and biocompatibility. Dentsply Sirona was a pioneer in this field with over 20 years experience. Zirconia became popular with introduction as pre-sintered material (Cercon) for efficient and economic production in CAD/ CAM processes. It covers a wide range of indications from single crowns up to 14-unit bridges.

Material Selection

Material Selection followsIndication

Based on the dental findings and the corresponding indication, the suitable material is selected. The following factors for the indication are important for the long-term success of the restoration:

  • Crown
  • Bridge / span
  • Anterior and / or posterior region
  • Preparation / space conditions
  • Substance-preserving preparation
  • Natural die or implant supported
  • Discolored die
  • Esthetic goal
  • Intended cementation procedure
  • Etc.

Scan

An Excellent Scan Is Just the Beginning

Intra Oral Scan (IOS) - Dentist

Digital impressions are fast and precise. Digital models are also less prone to errors than analog casts, saving time and improving the comfort of your patients. Transfer patient cases with a single click and communicate in real time with your dental technician. A complete 3D model of the clinical situation is the next step to elevate your planning and impression taking.

  • Improve efficiency and collaboration between your clinic and your lab partner
  • Eliminate the time-consuming need to create and send physical impressions
  • Take and label digital models quickly and simply for archiving purposes

One scanner. Many options.

Extra Oral Scan (EOS) - Dental Lab

The inEos X5 was developed for the dental lab according to the highest quality standards for optical measuring systems. The scanner ensures high accuracy for all digitization work of interest to the dental technician.*

The scanner allows you to make scans for nearly all indications and is your lab specialist for every digitization task. The open scanner combines simple operation with object-specific scanning strategies — for complete freedom of application.

CAD - Design

inLab CAD Software

Dental design requires good software

  • The inLab CAD Software is a separate CAD component and is nearly independent of the scanning and production unit. inLab CAD Software convinces with needs-based indications and user-friendly application.
  • You have a broad range of indications beyond basic applications you can select with inLab CAD Software. Four software modules cover the most important indications. 

 

Why use inLab CAD Software?

Modular and individual
With design modules for basic indications as well as for implant and removable prostheses, and interface module as add-ons.

Open and economical
The standalone CAD components are open to allow flexible STL integration. Profit from the versatile usability of the software modules and the vast range of indications.

Intuitive and familiar
The intuitive user interface guides you quickly to the design steps you need. The virtual articulator and the jaw-oriented biogeneric setting assist you in creating your individual prosthesis design.

CAM - Milling

inLab CAM Software

Dental manufactoring requires good software

The inLab CAM Software supports the Dentsply Sirona manufacturing units. All necessary work steps, system configurations and integrated service functions can be carried out quickly and easily. Special manufacturing demands can be met with individualized settings.

Why use inLab CAM Software?

Smart positioning in the workpiece
For efficient material use and optimal preparation, the inLab CAM software positions the restoration in the workpiece according to your specifications. This takes previously positioned or prepared objects into account. Users can make adjustments without restrictions in the individual arrangement – for maximum flexibility and according to individual demands.

Inspecting wall thickness
The wall thicknesses of an object can be checked in a virtual model before machining. The system displays the respective wall thicknesses for any point.

Horizontal positioning
For optimal positioning within the workpiece (e.g. with multi-layer materials such as Cercon xt ML) the object can manually be shifted and rotated in all directions..

Sintering

Zirconia,Cercon, is a sintered ceramic – what does this mean?

To make Zirconia mill able in an efficient, safe and economic way, Zirconia has in the beginning a porous structure of loosely connected zirconia particles: This state is called "white body" and is the presintered state (strength:15-60 MPa). This low strength allows to mill zirconia discs easily and reduces bur wear.

After milling, the restoration is sintered to achieve a homogenous structure and the needed mechanical properties. This means that restorations are given their final strength and dimensions in sintering furnaces with a special sintering program in terms of time and temperature control. This has a high significance with regard to the quality of the restoration, especially the strength (strength: 750 - 1200 MPa) and color.

Summary: Zirconia materials are delivered in a presintered state. During sintering process, they undergo a sinter shrinkage. After sintering the zirconia materials have their high strength. The right combination of material, sinter program and sinter furnace is essential for the quality of the restoration, especially for strength, translucency, shade and fit.

Why choose inLab Profire?

  • Sintering of zirconium oxide and sinter metal¹ in just one furnace²      
  • Speed sintering for single restorations, frameworks and bridges      
  • Simultaneous sintering of up to 60 units³ when stacking two sintering trays
  • Optional free programming
  • Conventional long-term sintering of zirconium oxide      
  • “Dry & Sinter” – Sintering with pre-drying
  • Preprogrammed for validated sinter materials

1. For validated sinter metal only
2. Optional with the inLab Profire Zirconia + Metal
3. For zirconium oxide; depends on the size of restorations and sinter support

Finishing

The finishing of all-ceramic restorations is an essential component of esthetics, quality and efficiency

Monolithic with just a glaze, or stain and glaze

The finishing of all-ceramic restorations is an essential component of esthetics and quality.

Cercon Multilayers, Cercon ht ML and Cercon xt ML, can be finished with only a single glaze or by an individual characterization with DS Universal Stain and Glaze.

The seamless layers delivers a natural esthetics and especially in the anterior region Cercon ht ML can be used for covering discolored dies, depending on the degree of discoloration and wall thickness of the restoration.

Cutback up to fully veneered

The cutback technique is particularly suitable for minimal individualization, especially of the incisal area.
With the veneering ceramics Celtra Ceram or Cercon ceram Kiss, detailed individualizations can be carried out specifically and with little effort.

Cercon ht and Cercon xt are particularly suitable for this technique.

If a fully veneered restoration is desired or necessary for various reasons, it can also be fabricated with Celtra Ceram or Cercon ceram Kiss.

Cercon base in particular, but also Cercon ht and Cercon xt are suitable for this technique.

Example: Covering of discolored dies with Cercon ht ML, Shade A2
