PFZ (Porcelain Fused Zirconia)

 

ROE's PFZ restorations represent the ideal solution when cases demand the highest level of aesthetics for anterior and posterior applications.

Our advanced CAD technology reverse-engineers zirconia substructures from the final restorative proposal, ensuring optimal porcelain support and truly lifelike appearance for single crowns up to complex roundhouse bridges.

We offer conventional cementation with standard 1mm chamfer preparation requirements, while providing comprehensive shade options, including copings in regular, translucent, and bleached shades with veneering ceramics in Vita Classical and Vita 3D systems.

Backed by our continuous innovation partnerships with cutting-edge zirconia manufacturers, ROE's PFZ restorations are our top recommendation for full-coverage crowns requiring superior aesthetics and proven reliability for optimal clinical outcomes.
