the total solutiondelivering

People once had to acceptthe appearance and func-tion of their teeth. With the advanced technologiesavailable now, theydemand more from life.

At Nobel Biocare, we believethat everyone should havebeautiful and fully function-ing teeth. What’s more, we are currently the onlyprovider of complete root-to-tooth solutions forproviding patients exactlywhat they are demanding.

As the world leader inesthetics and restorativedentistry, we focus on providing Beautiful TeethNow™. Underpinning thisfocus are our three coreconcepts of ImmediateFunction™, Soft TissueIntegration™ and EasyEsthetics™:

Immediate Function™

is rooted in our dentalimplant technology andproducts. Soft TissueIntegration™ focuses on the gingival beauty.

In support of EasyEsthetics™, we have Procera®

and NobelRondo™ solutions.Procera® provides the indi-vidualized substructure,and NobelRondo™ providesthe ceramics for creatingbeautiful and extremelystrong esthetics.

NobelRondo™ – the dynamic system that

improves on natureNobelRondo™ is a ceramiccolor harmony system foralumina and zirconia toreproduce natural teeth andmissing gingiva.

• Extremely strong ceramics(120 MPa)

• Highest esthetic resultsfrom unique layeringtechnique

• Unique, easy to useergonomic kit design

Now, we have made ourCreative Circle of ceramicseven more creative by addinga new pressable ceramics – NobelRondo™ Press.

The system contains of thefollowing;

NobelRondo™ Alumina & Zirconia

– The first system with ourunique tray and layeringtechnique

NobelRondo™ ZirconiaGingiva

– Mimics soft tissue

NobelRondo™ PressAlumina & Zirconia

– Easy, versatile andpredictable pressableceramics

At the completion of theProcera® process,NobelRondo™ tops off ourtotal solution philosophy andresults in beautifully strongteeth which can potentiallyeven improve on nature.

One of the most beautifulaspects of natural teeth isthe gleam of the enamel. A natural fluorescenceemanates from within thetooth and is stimulated

by ultraviolet light. TheNobelRondo™ compoundbuilt up inside the crown is enhanced with additionalfluorescing material,replicating this gleam. So, even in varying lightconditions, a natural-appearing glow generatesfrom the crown’s center.

alumina orzirconia?

Unlike crowns with metalsubstructures, Procera®

ceramics allow light to shinethrough whether you’re usingalumina or zirconia. In fact,both materials deliver provenceramic strength and a translu-cent, long-lasting beauty thatmetals cannot match.

However, due to itstranslucency and for thebest esthetics, alumina canbe used in all areas of themouth.

When greater strength isdesired, zirconia can be usedin the posterior area wherebiting forces are greatest.

Zirconia is also indicated formore complex rehabilitationswith bridges and implants.

exceptionalstrength

The flexural strength ofNobelRondo™ ceramics isan extraordinary 120 MPaThis exceeds other com-parable ceramics by 20% to 70%.

This strength allowsNobelRondo™ to offergreater success in patienttreatment, and increasedconfidence for thelaboratory.

natural smile

NobelRondo™ provides analmost natural opalescence,even after multiple firings.Very fine particles,distributed homogeneouslythroughout the structure of the ceramic, create anunusually beautiful, softopal effect. Above all, the“Mother of Pearl” modifiersmake natural, mother-of-pearl opalescent contrastspossible.

wearcharacteristics

Due to its homogeneousstructure and smooth surface,NobelRondo™ demonstratesa 42% reduction in enamelwear compared to otheraluminum oxide porcelains.

Tests performed in accor-dance with the ISO 7491standard found that in asimulated intraoral environ-ment, the NobelRondo™

dentin shades exhibited no distinguishable colorchange after 5 years.

Ernst A. Hegenbarth developed the famous Creative Color Systemand the concept for the outstandingNobelRondo™ ceramics for aluminaand zirconia.

Longevity

NobelRondo™ Zirconiaprovides high stability after multiple firings andcorrections, outstandingnon-abrasive surface quality,and excellent polishability.

Semi-translucency, outstanding strength and wear characteristics of NobelRondo™ Zirconiawill lead to esthetically pleasing and functionally successful dental restorations.

Increased Zirconiatranslucency

Zirconia sub-structures maysometimes be thought ofas being too white. Coloredframeworks can be used toaddress this, but a possibleside-effect is reducedtranslucency. Our uniqueIntensive Liners inNobelRondo™ Zirconia easilyreduce the whiteness byproviding the optimumenvironment fortranslucency and lighttransmission.

Processing advantages

The extremely fine,homogeneous micro-structure of NobelRondo™

Zirconia producesoutstanding stability duringlayering, as well as ahomogeneous structure for the fired ceramic.
