Zirkonzahn’s 2024 lecture tour will be coming to Southampton, Manchester and Cardiff in September – find out more here.
The dental company Zirkonzahn (South Tyrol, Italy) has announced its 2024 ‘Predictable and consistent results – common mistakes and solutions to overcome them successfully’ lecture tour will be coming to Southampton, Manchester and Cardiff from 23 to 26 September, answering some common questions that may arise when dealing with complex zirconia restorations, including:
- How can I achieve a good predictable outcome when working with zirconia?
- To what do I have to pay attention to avoid common errors in the dental workflow?
MDT Alessandro Cucchiaro (CAD/CAM expert, Zirkonzahn course instructor and lecturer at various events worldwide) will draw attention to technical aspects and factors that influence the final result of a zirconia prosthesis. By showing a real complex case study, he will illustrate the challenges faced during each workflow step, from patient diagnostics to characterisation, providing keys to overcome them successfully. Special attention will be given to impression-taking, occlusion registration, passivity check and correct material selection.
A streamlined workflow
The process of creating high-end, predictable zirconia solutions also involves a well-established communication between dental technicians, clinicians, and surgeons. For this reason, the lecturer will also focus on the latest digital diagnostic devices – a key aspect for improving communication within the treatment team and working in a totally digital environment thanks to a complete 3D virtual reproduction of patients’ oral and extraoral anatomy, without distorting or losing any information.
Another important aspect for a successful restoration is a streamlined workflow, where all components fit perfectly together according to a precise dental technical logic. The lecturer will demonstrate how each step is integrated into a smooth work process which ensures high-quality standards and a perfect coordination between all hardware, software, tools, and materials.
Finally, creating high-end zirconia solutions starts from setting standards, developing a well-established communication between dental technicians, clinicians and surgeons, training one’s manual skills, but ends with the most important step of selecting the right materials. During the lecture, participants will discover Zirkonzahn’s complete range of materials suitable for any clinical situation, with a special focus on Prettau zirconia and the new Prettau Dispersive line, specially indicated for monolithic design.
