5 Ways Solid Zirconia Restorations Reduce Chair Time and Increase Profitability
In modern dentistry, efficiency and precision go hand in hand. The materials you choose don’t just affect clinical outcomes, they impact your workflow, profitability, and patient satisfaction. Solid zirconia crowns and bridges have become the go-to choice for dentists seeking strength, consistency, and reliable results that streamline every step of the restorative process.
Here at Electric Arts Dental Lab in Austin, TX, we specialize in solid zirconia restorations that deliver exceptional durability, accuracy, and esthetics, helping you save valuable chair time and boost your bottom line.
1. Minimal Adjustments and Excellent Fit
Using advanced CAD/CAM technology, our solid zirconia crowns are milled to achieve outstanding precision. Each restoration is designed for consistent contacts, accurate margins, and a smooth fit right from delivery. The result? Less time spent adjusting occlusion and more time focused on patient care.
2. High Strength Means Fewer Remakes
With flexural strengths often exceeding 1,000 MPa, solid zirconia crowns and bridges can easily withstand the pressure of heavy bite forces, making them ideal for bruxers and posterior restorations. Their exceptional durability reduces the likelihood of fractures or remakes, increasing efficiency and profitability for your practice.
3. Simple Preparation and Cementation
Solid zirconia restorations simplify the cementation process. Unlike glass ceramics that require multiple bonding steps, zirconia can be conventionally cemented using resin-modified glass ionomer cements, no extra etching or priming required. This straightforward process shortens appointment times and minimizes chairside complexity.
4. Long-Lasting Esthetics Without Layering
Today’s monolithic zirconia materials combine exceptional strength with natural translucency, allowing for beautiful, lifelike esthetics without porcelain layering. Because there’s no risk of chipping or delamination, you and your patients can count on consistent color stability and lasting performance.
5. Faster Turnaround with a Digital Dental Lab
At Electric Arts Dental Lab, our fully digital workflow ensures precision and speed from start to finish. Digital scans, CAD design, and in-house milling allow us to produce solid zirconia restorations with quick turnaround times and consistent quality. That means you receive restorations faster, keeping your schedule efficient and your patients satisfied.
