Clinical Report: Efficient Chairside Restoration of a Fractured Molar

Background

Fractured teeth are a common dental issue that can lead to significant discomfort and complications if not managed properly. The use of CAD/CAM technology in restorative dentistry allows for efficient and precise restorations.

Data Highlights

The restoration procedure was completed in less than one hour, with the crown milled in under 15 minutes and polished in under 3 minutes. Radiographs confirmed impeccable marginal fit.

Key Findings

  • The Ceramir CAD/CAM crown provided a smooth, glass-like finish.
  • The material's antibacterial properties, due to zinc oxide and fluoride, help prevent biofilm and bacterial growth.
  • The patient reported immediate comfort and a natural feel to her bite one day post-procedure.
  • The full procedure was completed efficiently.
  • The material is biocompatible and non-toxic.

Clinical Implications

The use of Ceramir CAD/CAM blocks can improve the restoration process for fractured teeth.

Conclusion

The use of CAD/CAM technology in restoring fractured molars demonstrates benefits in terms of time and patient comfort.
