As the most prescribed brand of full-contour zirconia, BruxZir® Full-Strength Solid Zirconia represents a momentous shift in clinicians’ restorative preferences. While it began in 2009 as “More Brawn Than Beauty,” BruxZir zirconia has been continuously improved to exhibit better translucency and color similar to natural dentition. It is no longer simply a more esthetic alternative to posterior metal occlusal PFMs or cast gold restorations. Now, BruxZir Full-Strength restorations offer complete color penetration and superior shade matching technology allowing practitioners to deploy this versatile material in even the most esthetically demanding cases.

Instructions for Adjusting and Polishing
When adjusting BruxZir zirconia crowns and bridges, use water and air spray to cool the restorations. Avoid micro-fractures by using a fine grit diamond burr. Use the lightest touch possible when making adjustments using air only. A football shaped bur is the most effective for occlusal and lingual surfaces (on anterior teeth); a tapered bur is the ideal choice for buccal and lingual surfaces.
