3M Lava Crowns All Porcelain Zirconia Crowns and Ceramic Bridges

The Lava Systems by 3M ESPE has been established in over 40 countries around the world. With more than 10 years of clinical experience, millions of lava zirconia restorations have been produced and successful placed by cosmetic dentists around the world.

The 3M Lava Zirconia is one of the best investigated materials on the market. Over 100 studies has been published by researchers worldwide. Lava zirconia restorations stands for high-strength restorations with outstanding marginal fit and excellent aesthetics. The unique formula of Lava™ Plus High Translucency Zirconia provides significantly higher translucency and unprecedented beauty – without compromising strength.

Benefits of Lava Plus Zirconia Crowns

• The lava crown shading system enables natural looking all-zirconia or traditionally layered restorations
• The lava crowns have excellent color match to the conventional VITA Shade Guides enabling matching of zirconia crowns to other existing restorations
• The high strength of lava crowns allow increased tooth preservations thereafore allows less occlusal preparation than lithium disilicate glass ceramic because of its three times greater strength
• Lava zirconia porcelain crowns is the beautifully durable material of choice.

The Lava™ Plus all-zirconia block allows natural, warm colors to shine from the inside of dental crowns and dental bridges. With 18 colors and eight Lava™ Plus Effect Shades, this zirconia block system gives our thailand cosmetic dentists options for unparalleled individualization. Customization of the all porcelain zirconia block is made more predictable, as Lava Plus is the only CAD/CAM zirconia system that matches the tooth color shade system called the VITA Classical A1-D4 shades and includes bleached shades.

Thailand cosmetic dentists are able to use lava zirconia crowns restorations for single unit dental crowns, splinted crowns, crowns on implants; dental bridges, cantilever bridges and anterior bridges.

Lava CAD and CAM System

	Lava Scan ST Design System The Lava Scan ST Design System is part of the CAM process that scans and design implant abutments, zirconia frameworks, wax/resin patterns and metal frameworks. The Lava Scan Design system digitally creates a full contour designs by customizing the tooth shape provided. Using a standard tooth library, the Lava design system automatically places the correct tooth number on the die. Occlusions and adjacent teeth can be adapted.
	Lava CNC 500 Milling System The Lava CNC milling machine delivers 3 or 5 axis smart milling. The Lava Milling machines is the instrument that mills the zirconia blocks into actual all porcelain crowns and ceramic bridges shapes. The Lava Milling system is an automated system that is able to run for 76 hours straight with multiple materials enabling quicker teeth works to be delivered.
	Lava Furnace 200 The Lava Furnace reduces sintering times and produces more units per sintering cycle. The Lava Furnaces bakes and cools milled Lava zirconia into actual strong all ceramic crowns and porcelain bridges.
