Crown and Bridge

BONDED CROWNS AND BRIDGES / MARYLAND BRIDGES / PORCELAIN VENEERS

Zerconia restorations

Zerconia is the ideal form of metal free restoration for crowns & bridges offering high strength & a natural appearance.
Restorations are created using the latest CAD/CAM technologies without veneering to guarantee a perfect fit for your patients. They are made from Wieland patented Zenostar ceramics which are gentle on the tooth substance during preparation, easily withstand masticatory forces & make chipping a thing of the past.

BONDED RESTORATIONS

Our ceramic Porcelain restorations are manufactured using the IPS Inline System.
Ivolcar Vivodent recommend the following cements:

  • SpeedCEM – for conventional cementation
  • Multilink Automix – for adhesive cementation

COMPOSITE RESTORATIONS

Our Composite restorations are manufactured using Ivoclar Nexco Composites.

SR Nexco Paste is a purely light-curing lab composite with micro-opal fillers which allows you to achieve a consistent shade even if space is limited, because the shade effect is tolerant to varying layer thicknesses. SR Nexco Paste restorations achieve a durable shade stability and a lasting gloss as a result of the polymerization process. You can thus fabricate restorations with a very natural appearance in any light conditions.

The following cement is advised for Cementation:

  • Multilink Automix

GOLD RESTORATIONS

We currently use Argen alloys which are the largest producer of precious alloys in the world and offer a full range of alloys for all types of laboratory work. We have a varied selection of bonded alloys from 24ct gold, high palladium and those alloys formulated for Implant structures, full and partial frameworks.

All our alloys are cast to a consistently high quality, giving reliable and consistent results every time We use the following alloys for our crown & bridge restorations:
