This is a lovey case we helped complete. 🤩

We made two implant crowns to replace the two centrals and waxed the 3s and 2s for composite bonding. Amazing work by Ishaaq and his team. 👏

We love to participate in cases like this! 🙏

Precision Meets Artistry
​Check out this 6-unit lower anterior bridge fresh off the bench! We’ve combined high-end material science with meticulous hand-finishing to achieve this life-like result.
​The Technical Breakdown:
​Material: Crafted from DD CubeX²® ML (Multi-layered) zirconia. This material provides the perfect gradient of translucency and strength, mimicking natural dentin and enamel transitions.
​Finish: Artfully characterized using the DD Contrast® Kit. These specialized pastes allow us to add depth, texture, and chroma without the bulk of traditional layering.
​Source: Designed and finished with pride at 1st Choice Dental Laboratory.
​Why it Works:
​By using a monolithic design enhanced with micro-layering techniques, we offer the patient maximum durability against chipping while maintaining the high-end aesthetics required for the aesthetic zone.
