BruxZir has proven to be a consistent material that provides the strength and translucency patients want in their restorations. Here are 5 reasons to use this solid zirconia:

1. Exhibiting class-leading durability (up to 1465 MPa of flexural strength and high fracture toughness), BruxZir provides a stronger and more durable cementable restoration. It can be used in almost any clinical situation, but is ideal for demanding situations like bruxers, implant restorations and areas with limited occlusal space.

2. The new BruxZirTM Shaded formulation offers complete color penetration all the way through the restorations, ensuring greater shade consistency and preventing any shade change after occlusal adjustment.

3. Because it’s a monolithic material and does not have multiple layers, it can be milled to a feather edge for a more natural and hygienic emergence profile. There will be no bulk of material, or “speed bump,” at the margin.

4.BruxZir Restorations display translucency and color similar to natural dentition, making them a more esthetic alternative to PFMs with metal occlusals/linguals or full-cast gold restorations.

5. With more than 2.8 million BruxZir restorations placed, it is the No. 1 prescribed brand of solid zirconia, and it is available nationwide at an AuthorizedTM BruxZir Laboratory near you.
