A 3-unit Bridge Restoration of a Fractured Ceramic Crown Using a Digital Workflow
How a digital workflow led to a beautifully restored zirconia bridge that showed perfect contact point and good adaptation with soft tissues 6 weeks post-op.
Dr. Sabbagh walks us through a recent case of a 38-year-old female who presented at his practice with pain and discomfort from a fractured ceramic crown on the posterior abutment of a 3-units bridge.
You’ll find:
- The digital impression data that Dr. Sabbagh gathered that allowed his lab to create a gorgeous, new zirconia bridge
- How he accomplished the try-in of the bridge on a 3D printed model
- How he placed the bridge during final delivery to achieve a beautiful prosthetic outcome with perfect contact point and good adaptation with the soft tissues six weeks post-op
