#Case Review and CEREC software design flow for a maxillary premolar implant placement and restoration design when there is limited mesial-distal space. The CEREC stretches a little more for rotated teeth and unique mesial-distal dimension conditions. Design situations like this are when the design tools need to take over. This videos will share my implant CEREC design flow when the initial proposal doesn't seem to work. All it takes is a few strategic steps to get the design back in order.

This case review will emphasize the CEREC software flow for an anterior cantilever bridge. There are times a cantilever anterior bridge works out the best for the case. This is one of those case reviews. In fact, zirconia was required due to a more conservative preparation needed on the abutment canine. View Video

Finally found a need for the Adjust Morphology feature and create a 3rd premolar rather than molar. This feature is handy when there is not enough room for a molar morphological design due to mesial drift of distal tooth, a molar in this case, into the mesial edentulous zone. This video tutorial will also be a unique demonstration for designing two side-by-side implants. In this case Implant Direct Inactive 3.7 and 4.3 implants where placed using the "crown-down" technique and placed with a guide. Virtually planned and guided implant placement can take a difficult implant and restorative situation and provide a very

Are we able to machine thin feather margins with CEREC without chipping? Oh yes, we can! In fact, I am going to make a quality statement. We can mill a "pressable" margin with the MC XL using the EF bur system. This video will review the clinical criteria for applying a thin margin to optimize the aesthetic results. View Video

Texturing anterior restorations provide the finishing fingerprint for exceptional harmony and blend. This video is one of many on this site about texturing. The closer to the midline, the more important the contouring and texturing becomes. Let's have some fun learning! View Video

It is so important to completely listen to our patients when they talk. This video case review documents how the patient was right and I was wrong after 30 years. Thanks to chairside CAD/CAM and multi-Empress, I was finally able to get it right. Incisal Variation Tool featured in the video. View Video

Case Reviews are provide for those cases uploaded to the Ask Dr. Klim Forum. This case is a review and demonstrates the principles about soft tissue implant emergence for anterior implant (thin tissue biotype). View Video

IPS Ivocolor is a universal stains and glaze assortment for the individualized staining and characterization of ceramic materials. The range of products has been coordinated with the layering, press and CAD ceramics from Ivoclar Vivadent and the zirconium oxides from Wieland Dental and can be used regardless of the CTE of the ceramic. Due to the optimized sinter temperature of the newly developed glass, optimum esthetic results can be achieved irrespective of the ceramic substrate.
The newly developed composition of the pastes was optimized with regard to the application behaviour and the firing results. The gel-type structure of
