What does the fabrication and restorative workflow look like?
The TLZ-IB follows a three-stage restorative process that uses a verified design as the foundation for the final restoration, helping ensure predictable results.
| Stage | What happens |
|---|---|
| 1. Records | Submit a flask or duplicate prosthetic to ROE so the design captures the desired tooth position, vertical dimension, and esthetics. |
| 2. Prototype try-in | ROE produces a prototype try-in so you can verify fit, function, phonetics, and esthetics intraorally before the final is milled. |
| 3. Final | After approval, ROE mills the final full zirconia restoration, finishes it with MiYO liquid porcelain, and bonds in the titanium cylinders. |
The full process typically spans 3 to 6 patient visits, with 5 days in lab for the final once records are confirmed. Rather than firing porcelain over multiple cycles, which is time-consuming and can degrade the zirconia, ROE beautifies the FP3 restoration using translucent liquid ceramics and a highly polished surface, then bonds the copings into place.
ROE's design team can support the digital side of the workflow. To start a case, send it to ROE; for design support, see ROE's full-arch design services.
