Procera® AllZirkon Cementation

Cementation Guidelines

  • Use conventional crown & bridge cementation.
  • Recommended Cements: Glass Ionomer, Zinc Phosphate or self-cure Composite Resin Cement (e.g., Panavia 21).
  • Temporary cementation of Procera AllZirkon bridges is NOT recommended.
  1. Once you receive your restoration from Aurum Ceramic/Classic:
    • Check restoration on die.
    • Seat restoration on teeth. Bridge must fit passively when seating. Check proximal contact and evaluate fit, occlusion and esthetics.
  2. Adjust occlusion carefully before cementation.
  3. Internal surface roughness of restoration is similar to that of porcelain surface after etching (provides excellent cementation strength without further preparation). Only needs to be cleaned with standard methods (phosphoric acid and alcohol) to achieve a perfect surface for luting agent.
  4. Consider translucency of restoration and cement when cementing in anterior region.
  5. Apply selected cement in restoration. NOTE: Use of too much cement can make seating restoration difficult.
  6. Seat restoration carefully using finger pressure. Do not push the restoration into place.
  7. Once seated, allow excess cement to set completely.
  8. Remove excess cement from margins.
