Product Profile: BruxZir Esthetic

From the makers of BruxZir Solid Zirconia comes a new category of dental zirconia made possible by years of research and development: BruxZir Esthetic Solid Zirconia. Benefiting from advancements in Glidewell Dental’s proprietary colloidal fabrication process, BruxZir Esthetic exhibits natural vitality and enhanced shade consistency, resulting in incredibly lifelike restorations. Along with its impressive aesthetics, the material has an average flexural strength of 870 megapascals and requires minimal tooth preparation of only 0.7mm.

Upon its release in 2009, the original BruxZir Solid Zirconia offered dentists an all-ceramic alternative to traditional PFM restorations, which have a history of chipping and fracture in parafunctional situations. Though billed as “more brawn than beauty,” BruxZir Solid also served as a tooth-colored alternative to full-cast and occlusal gold restorations. Less than a decade later, BruxZir Solid Zirconia has been prescribed for more than 16 million restorations, spearheading a global shift from full-cast and porcelain-veneered restorations to monolithic ceramic crowns and bridges. BruxZir Solid remains the only zirconia material with eight years of clinical validation by independent researchers Rella and Gordon J. Christensen of the Gordon J. Christensen Clinicians Report.

A complement to the strength of BruxZir Full-Strength, the lifelike translucency and enhanced shade matching of BruxZir Esthetic make it ideal for anterior cases and are further proof of why BruxZir Solid Zirconia is the No. 1 prescribed brand of full-contour zirconia.

Priced at $109 per unit, BruxZir Esthetic crowns and bridges feature Glidewell Laboratories’ no-fault remake policy and full seven-year warranty, to ensure satisfaction and confidence long after seating.
