Bruxzir Crowns Now Available for Your Patients

Somer is happy to offer you Bruxzir zirconia crowns and expect they will find their way into your treatment planning.

What do you need to know?

Bruxzir crowns are 100% Zirconia and are thus very, very strong. They require a minimum of .5 mm reduction and are suitable for individual units and bridges.

Bruxzir crowns are cementable and are kind to the opposing dentition. They offer excellent wear characteristics.

Somer’s Bruxzir crowns are milled in the USA and then finished to our standards by Somer technicians.

Use a traditional preparation.

What about costs?

Our fee is $109. per unit and will immunize you against fluctuating alloy prices.

What about esthetics?

Bruxzir brings you many of the esthetic benefits of metal free crowns and to most patients, is almost certainly preferable to a gold, full cast crown.

But like gold, we do not use Bruxzir in the esthetic zone.

How does Bruxzir work?

1. You send your impression or digital file to Somer.
2. Somer pours & scans the model, designs the crown and uploads the digital file to a Bruxzir milling facility.
3. They mill a full contour, zirconia crown in the prescribed shade and design and return it to Somer.
4. Somer refines the crown with ideal incisal anatomy and enhanced shading and characterization.
5. We send the completed crown to you. We ask for 6 lab days.

The joke: Bruxzir is the new gold!

There is a joke in dental labs that Bruxzir is the new gold.

It is very strong, kind to the opposing and has excellent wear characteristics.

Bruxzir is suitable for single units and bridges. It is fabricated in the USA and is immune from crazy alloy prices.

It requires only .5 mm reduction and is cementable.

Gold comes in 1 shade; Bruxzir comes in tooth shades. But like gold, we will keep Bruxzir out of the esthetic zone for the time being.
