Zirconia Cementation
Posted on 09/19/2011
Unlike IPS Empress or even IPS e.Max, Porcelain fused to zirconia or All zirconia (no porcelain layer) have the advantage of being strong enough for virtually every traditional cement. Additionally, they can be bonded with resin cements.
For standard preparations where the prepared tooth abutments height is 4mm or more, traditional cements are indicated. Where the prepared tooth abutment height is shorter than 4mm or where retention may be an issues, it is recommended to bond the zirconia using a resin cement.
For traditional cements, options include: Panavia 21 by Kuraray or GC Fuji by GC America.
Resin Cements include: Rely X ARC by 3m Espe, Clearfil by Kuraray, Multilink by Ivoclar, NX3 by Kerr, or Panavia F 2.0 by Kuraray.
