Building laminate veneers and fixed bridges with polymer glass technology
Abstract:
A new type of material is being introduced to American dentistry. The material is a polymer glass, tested in Europe as Artglass. The material is purported to be equal to or better than porcelain for esthetic dentistry. The strength, color translucency, and color vitality allow minimal destruction of enamel for esthetics. An Artglass occlusal is less abrasive to enamel than porcelain and approximates gold. The characteristics of this material system introduces "minimal invasive dentistry" to routine dental repair and reconstruction. A case study of the senior author's reconstruction of his anterior teeth is presented.
