Bridging Digital Precision and Artisanal Craftsmanship for Aesthetic Zirconia Restorations
Venue: Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia
Time: 9.00am – 5.30pm
Date: 1 October 2026
Synopsis
As the adoption of digital workflows is on the rise, CAD/CAM zirconia restorations are being routinely prescribed in dental practices. Monolithic zirconia restorations require aesthetic customization to match the patient’s natural teeth, typically achieved through staining or porcelain micro-stratification, and a combination of both techniques in anterior aesthetic zones.
Vintage ZR micro-fine zirconia porcelain is designed for effortless layering on CAD/CAM zirconia frames, to closely mimic the translucency and opalescence of natural enamel, making it an ideal choice for micro-stratification of zirconia restorations. Art Universal stain system enables further individualization, with its “true colour” liquid to visualize the end result without firing, and minimizes errors while simplifying the staining protocol.
Explore the aesthetic possibilities of CAD/CAM restorations using staining and micro-layering to enhance the quality of monolithic restorations that meet both aesthetic and functional patient needs.
