BruxZir will do anything a full cast NP will do, and do it better. We scan and mill the wax pattern and send another copy of the same file to the BruxZir mill and make one of those too, and send it with the FCC, no charge.
We haven't done a FCC on a human in months.
Doesn't make sense.
BTW, take an ingot of that yellow NP and toss it in a test tube with a few onces of salt water. Get back to use in a week and tell us if you'd put that stuff in your mouth. Who is this tech who would never use a bad material?
I was supposed to be on that panel. I would have blew coffee out my nose if he said that with me sitting there.
This is probably just me, but the fact that you would use FCC in an animal
is telling. I am a die hard full gold person. If hardness is a concern, I don't
see why you cannot use a metal ceramic alloy instead of Type III.
I still request HN metal ceramic alloys with my lab, unless titanium/milled
indicated.
My view is that a lot of humans have hostile oral environment that equals
or surpass those challenges in an animal. Heard the saying - 'that guys'
jaws are like an animal - he just rips them up'?
What's your experience on a Bruxir for minimal occl clearance to be able
to mill down to, for those cases that really need that?
Any limitations on a partial coverage crown using that system (like a lingual
3/4 crown design)?
