With Bernina's Z-Tek™ Layered Zirconia, your patients don’t have to sacrifice strength for esthetics. Bernina's line of restorations presents an improved take on layered zirconia, featuring esthetics comparable to Lava™ and fractural strength approaching monolithic restorations.

​

Z-Tek™ Layered Zirconia offers high translucency for the highest quality cosmetic restorations, durability for anterior and posterior indications, and improved margin esthetics. Additionally, its high material strength allows you to maintain more of the natural tooth during preperation.

​

When traditional porcelain fused to metal crowns won’t deliver the esthetics you desire, rely on Bernina's Z-Tek™ Layered Zirconia. A zirconia coping provides full-contour strength, while a cosmetic layer of porcelain provides the translucency. Because of zirconia’s shading and reflective properties, Z-Tek™ restorations’ translucency surpasses that of conventional PFM. With zirconia’s natural coloration, the coping won’t be visible at the margin if gingiva recedes.

INDICATIONS

Zirconia is so versatile, it can be used in almost any situation from singles, bridges with any combination of abutments and pontics, inlay bridges, Maryland type bridges and screw-retained implants. Also an esthetic alternative to a PFM with metal occlusion due to limited space.
