BruxZir®
Ideal for bruxism and grinding, BruxZir is a fully contoured Zirconia crown and bridge restoration with no porcelain overlay. CAD/CAM technology ensures precise marginal fit while BruxZir’s glazed finish inhibits plaque and enhances its aesthetic value. Ideally suited for the posterior when parafunctional wear is a patient concern.

The Advantage of BruxZir®:

  • Chip-resistant, as it is made of solid zirconia with no porcelain overlay
  • Glazed to a smooth surface to reduce plaque accumulation.


Instructions for Adjustment and Polishing:
Adjust BruxZir zirconia crowns and brdiges using water and air spray to keep the restoration cool and to avoid micro-fractures with a fine grit diamond. If using air only, use the lightest touch possible when making adjustments. A football shaped bur is the most effective for occlusal and lingual surfaces; a tapered bur is the ideal choice for buccal and lingual surfaces.

Polish BruxZir restorations with the porcelain polishing system of your choice. Or, purchase the Axis Dental BruxZir Adjustment & Polishing Set (LS-7579) through your dental dealer

Indications:
BruxZir Solid Zirconia crowns or bridges are indicated for bruxers and grinders when PFM metal occlusal or full-cast restorations are not desired. BruxZir is ideally suited for posterior molar crowns when the patient desires a tooth colored restoration but lacks the preparation space for, or has broken a PFM crown in the past due to bruxing. BruxZir can also be prescribed for inlays and onlays

Ideal Preparation:
Shoulder preparation not needed, feather edge is okay. It is a conservative preparation similar to full-cast gold, so any preparation with at least 0.7 mm of occlusal space is accepted.

Minimum occlusal reduction of 0.7 mm but 1 mm should be ideal.

Recommended Cements:
Resin reinforced glass ionomer cement (RelyX Luting Cement, 3M ESPE; GC Fuji Plus, GC America)

Resin cements for short or over-tapered preparations (RelyX Unicem, 3M ESPE; Panavia F2.0, Kuraray)
