Dental restoration procedures have come a long way in the last few decades. Today, dental practitioners can offer more options for those who need dental restoration. Technology developments have led to the availability of dental devices made from different materials. 

You can select materials to suit your dental and aesthetic needs. Your dentist will help you determine the best restoration for you. Find out the success rate of All-on-4® Zirconia Prettau® restorations.

Prettau Zirconia Restorations

Prettau Zirconia is one of the most durable, strongest dental materials available. The high-quality material is nonporous and biocompatible. Manufacturers use it to create restorations such as bridges. 

Made from zirconia sand and yttrium, the durable material has tensile strength that allows flexibility. This feature makes it ideal for individuals who suffer from bruxism. Restorations are less likely to chip or become damaged. It reduces the risk of abrasion on adjacent teeth. 

How Prettau Zirconia Is Used

Prettau Zirconia is highly translucent and aesthetically pleasing. It has a natural appearance and mimics tooth enamel. It is highly functional and versatile. The material can create dental bridges with implants, dental crowns, veneers, and inlays and onlays. 

Special coloring techniques help design customized and durable All-on-4 restorations. Zirconia Prettau eliminates issues associated with acrylic and porcelain materials. 

Success Rate of Zirconia Prettau Restorations

Most patients are ideal candidates for Prettau Zirconia restorations. Patients can enjoy fixed restorations, such as dental implants. Due to their strength and durability, they can last for decades, or a lifetime, with proper maintenance. 

Their 99% success rate makes them a great choice for most patients. If your dentist establishes that you are a candidate for the restorations, you can enjoy a natural-looking smile for years. 

Caring for Prettau Zirconia Restorations 

Caring for your restorations will help prolong their lifespan. Things you can do to keep them in top condition include:
 

• Brush your restorations and natural teeth twice a day

• Implants are not vulnerable to decay, but you must floss daily to prevent gum disease.

• Use an antibacterial rinse or mouthwash to keep your mouth clean and reduce bacteria

• You can use a Waterpik® to remove debris and food particles from underneath the bridge

• Schedule regular dental visits for checkups and cleaning

If your current restorations are poorly fitting, talk to your dentist about Prettau Zirconia. The material is stain-resistant and highly durable. 

Restoring Dental Function 

If you have missing, decayed, or damaged teeth, Prettau Zirconia restorations can rehabilitate your oral function. Replacing missing teeth can help you chew and speak effectively. With dental bridges, you will not have to worry about dentures slipping off. 

Unlike traditional dental restorations, such as porcelain and acrylic, Zirconia does not:
 

• Stain

• Chip

• Crack

• Wear

Dental implants help protect and stimulate jawbone health. Prettau Zirconia restorations look and feel like natural teeth. 

The material can withstand strong bite force and daily wear and tear. The smooth surface ensures minimal abrasion to neighboring teeth and soft oral tissue. They are long-lasting and easy to maintain and help maintain the smile.
