[QUOTE="Juko, post: 275373, member: 14424"] Exam flexes with the teeth without debonding during mastication. When I had metal Maryland bridges I was going back to dentist to get recemented frequently. Ten years in with emax bridges and not one time have they popped off. I am terrible about chewing my nails which is problematic with Both laterals congenitally missing. Zirconia may be hard but it offers no give like emax. Emax can be bonded to teeth, zirconia can not. Same problematic popping off will occur with zirconia as with metal. Yes I realize zircon is actually a metal, so is lithium. I’ve never understood what people are eating that they need something harder than their natural dentition. My argument is only for pressed emax, not milled as the molecular structure differs between the two. As for the one wing versus two wing discussion. My opinion is if the preps are liberal go with two wings. If the peeps are conservative go with one wing. Why? The more material thickness there is will allow for the material to flex without fracturing while both sides are bonded. [/QUOTE]
