Application of CAD/CAM in Esthetic Rehabilitation using High Translucent Zirconia: A Case Series
Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 11
Abstract
Introduction: In recent years zirconia ceramics have undergone many changes in microstructure and composition to increase their translucency without significantly losing their fracture resistance, thereby expanding their clinical indication. With technological improvement and the evolution of dental restorative materials, it is currently possible to develop/ produce ultrathin zirconia veneers with thicknesses of 0.1-0.3 mm and adhesively cement them on the tooth surface with minimal or no preparation and to modify color, shape and/or positioning of the teeth. In recent years, Case report: This case series is to describes, two clinical cases, which have been rehabilitated with CAD/CAM fabricated zirconia with excellent esthetic results. Conclusion: Digitalization in dentistry has already started replacing conventional techniques in fabrication of prosthesis and slowly it will replace all the conventional steps. To maintain pace with advancing technologies, we have to keep ourselves updated with new technologies, advancements and CAD/CAM is among one of those.
