ceraMotion® Z zirconium oxide blanks, the newest member in Dentaurum’s ceraMotion family, offer a full range of aesthetic, all-ceramic materials in a wide variety of shades, translucencies and strengths.
See how ceraMotion® Z has made a positive business impact for the highly regarded crown and bridge dental laboratory in Melbourne, Golden Seal.
Golden Seal approached Dentaurum in 2021, looking for a superior Zirconia-based ceramics solution. The owner, Russel Waycott, was searching for superior natural aesthetics. He needed a solution that allowed the most natural look with the highest accuracy, predictability, and efficiency levels.
Golden Seal has used Dentaurum’s ceraMotion One Touch ceramic pastes and ceraMotion LiSi lithium disilicate press ceramics for two years. Says Waycott, “I knew I could rely on the quality of Dentaurum materials and service. They have always lived up to their reputation for quality, reliability and efficient supply.”
Using the best ceramic raw materials from Europe and Asia, ceraMotion® Z is made of Zirconium oxide, the first choice in materials for highly aesthetic prosthetic restorations due to its many possible uses, its biocompatibility and its visual shade matching.
The six different ceraMotion® Z blanks cover all zirconium oxide-based indications and offer maximum reliability in shading and processing. State-of-the-art materials technology within a logical concept makes ceraMotion® Z the smart choice for natural all-ceramic restorations, created to meet high demands.
"Dentaurum Australia arranged for a trial of ceraMotion Z blanks so Golden Seal could conduct a series of rigorous tests". Says Waycott, “What struck me very quickly is how simply and predictably I could achieve exactly the results I wanted to achieve. Translucency and Values are very natural, and the Chroma was consistently exact.”
After using ceraMotion® Z for just two months, Waycott already sees the benefits of ceraMotion® Z with its excellent aesthetic properties that work in harmony with the broader ceraMotion range.
“Dentaurum has got the isometric pressing just right. ceraMotion® Z mills particularly well. It’s not too hard and is very resistant to chipping. As you would expect from a single supplier, ceraMotion® Z pucks work flawlessly with the other ceraMotion ceramic finishes. The result is better and achieved with higher predictability levels and, importantly, greater efficiency. There is one less step required pre-sintering. It means we’re saving time and have increased capacity.”
With the launch of ceraMotion® Z, the ceraMotion range provides the total integrated solution. Both ceraMotion Zr veneering ceramic and the unique ceramic paste, ceraMotion One Touch, harmonise perfectly with lithium disilicate ceraMotion LiSi and zirconium oxide ceraMotion Z.
Dentaurum wishes to thank Russel Waycott for contributing to this article.
