Indications:

• Any position of the mouth – including the posterior
• Tooth- and implant-supported restorations
• Minimum thickness 0.4 mm

Preparation:

• Eliminate sharp edges, undercuts, and grooves.
• Provide sufficient reduction (1.2 mm to 1.5 mm).
• Provide adequate space for the coping and dental ceramic porcelain.
• Avoid sharp angles on the occlusal surface.
• Avoid creating a deep fossa/cavity.
• Provide sufficient (1.5 mm to 2 mm) occlusal/incisal reduction.
• Avoid preparations that are excessively tapered or too close to parallel. The ideal total occlusal convergence is 6–10°.

Impression

Make an ordinary crown and bridge impression using your preferred impression material and method. Send the impression to the laboratory.

Laboratory Procedures

A model is made from the impression and scanned to produce a NobelProcera Crown. After production, the crown is veneered with dental ceramics.

Cementation

Gently seat the restoration on the tooth, and check both the occlusion and the interproximal contacts. The restoration should be in light occlusion. Excursive contact should be minimal.

Note: Do not use temporary cement due to an increased risk of fracturing all-ceramic crowns.

NobelProcera™ Bridge Titanium

Indications:

• Indicated for all positions in the mouth
• From 2- 14 units with maximum dimension of 80mm x 80mm x 30mm (L,W,H).
• The connector dimension of a multi-unit framework depends on the distance between the supporting teeth
• Tooth- and implant-supported restorations

Contraindications:

• Cases with lengths that exceed the maximum limits are contraindicated
• Bruxism

Preparation

• Eliminate sharp edges, undercuts, and grooves.
• Establish tapered axial walls.
• Provide adequate space for the coping and dental ceramic porcelain.
• Provide sufficient reduction (1.2 mm to 1.5 mm).
• Only select cases where you have the ability to result in a 3 mm connector height.
• Avoid sharp angles on the occlusal surface.
• Provide sufficient (1.5 mm to 2 mm) occlusal/incisal reduction.
• Avoid preparations that are excessively tapered or too close to parallel. The ideal total occlusal convergence is 6–10°.

Impression

Make an ordinary crown and bridge impression using your preferred impression material and method. Once complete, send the impression to the laboratory.

Laboratory Procedures

• The dies and model are scanned using the NobelProcera Scanner. The data is transferred to a NobelProcera production facility.
• The bridge is milled from a homogenous titanium block for high strength and returned to the laboratory.
• The restoration is completed using veneering dental ceramic material and sent to the clinician.

Cementation

To save chair time, the NobelProcera Bridge Titanium can be cemented using conventional crown and bridge cement or it can be bonded.
