Old topic I talked about several years ago and thought I would discuss again since we have the option
to use more translucent zirconia's, plus micro layering is gaining more traction.
Question: do you upcharge on your Full contour anterior crowns and bridges using zirconia or in LD ?
In my opinion it takes longer to design anteriors than on posteriors, and extra time to touchup before
stain/glazing.
If you charge more, how much more over the prices of your posteriors ?
Do you charge more for bridges over singles...
Feel free to share prices or share your upcharge increase.
If you haven't thought about an upcharge, you know your losing a certain percentage of layered cases to full
contour billed out much higher. Over time an higher percentage of your crowns will be made in full contour.
Question, are layered or micro layered zir crown better than full contour ? are the layered crowns worth more ?
Answer: depends on who's paying the lab bill, the patient, and docs love seating non-breakable crowns....
Food/money for thought guys !
Now back to glazing FCZ anteriors and posteriors..
Hint ! I have more fun billing out anteriors...
