Crown & Bridge
Our Crown & Bridge department delivers high-precision fixed restorations engineered for long-term functional stability and exceptional esthetic outcomes. From single-unit anterior crowns to multi-span posterior bridges, every case is approached with the same commitment to marginal accuracy and material excellence.
Material Selection
We work with a curated portfolio of proven materials: multi-layered high-translucency zirconia (HT-ZrO₂) for full-contour restorations requiring both strength and esthetics; IPS e.max Press and e.max CAD for anterior veneers, crowns, and inlays; and layered porcelain-fused-to-zirconia (PFZ) for cases demanding maximum shade characterization. All zirconia is sintered in calibrated furnaces to manufacturer specifications to ensure consistent density and translucency values.
CAD/CAM Milling & Marginal Accuracy
Every restoration is digitally designed using 3Shape Dental System and milled on high-precision 5-axis milling units. Our standard marginal gap target is ≤50 µm — verified for each case under 8× magnification before dispatch. Full-contour restorations are checked for proximal contacts and occlusal clearance prior to glazing or staining.
Layering & Characterization
For cases requiring maximum esthetic depth — anterior rehabilitations, smile makeovers, implant-supported crowns in the visible zone — our senior technicians perform cut-back and hand-layering using IPS e.max Ceram or Creation CC porcelain. Surface characterization, internal staining, and glaze application are applied to replicate the optical gradients of natural dentition.
Prescription Submission Guidelines
For optimal results, provide digital scans in STL/PLY format or high-quality PVS impressions with an accurate bite registration. Include shade selection (VITA Classical or VITA 3D-Master), adjacent tooth photographs under natural lighting, and a clear indication of the preparation finish line. Rush cases (3-day delivery) are available upon prior arrangement.
All Crown & Bridge restorations include a QC checklist covering marginal fit, contact points, occlusion, shade, and surface texture before dispatch. We encourage pre-case consultations for complex multi-unit cases or patients with significant parafunction.
