zirconia

AAID Podcast Host, Dr. Danny Domingue, sat down with Equipment Specialist, Jesse Kosnitzsky from Dentsply Sirona, to get the inside scoop on the newly launched CEREC Primemill. This grinding and milling unit is a game changer in dental practice in how it facilitates and accelerates the fabrication of chairside restorations. One of the Primemill’s most significant features is how it reduces the time to create a zirconia crown by more than half. As Dr. Domingue discovers, the time to create a crown is about four minutes.

Zirconia is widely used. Many love it, some hate it. But there aren't many people that know more about it than the one and only Dr. Mike DiTolla! Mike joins Jason and Alan to answer questions from the Dental Hacks Nation about all things zirconia! Some topics we cover:

• Mike's shoulder surgery experience and why you shouldn't feel too bad about missing a block again.
• How Mike invented zirconia (Al's word, not his)
• Is zirconia too strong?
• Can you bond zirconia? And how does that work?
• How does the lab approach zirconia (e.g.--die space, etc.)
• 30 micron margins! Crown margins = really narrow class V restoration
• Best ways to adjust zirconia (water on, very fine diamond)
•  Mike and Josh Austin's AMAZING performances at VoD 2020!
• What is zirconia's Kryptonite and why do we have to clean zirconia before cementing/bonding?
• Best way to open an access/drill a hold into a zirconia crown and how to repair
• Blended zirconia materials

In episode 49 the DentalHacks are trying something a little different. We've gotten feedback from a few listeners that they would prefer an entire long form interview on the show instead of splitting them over more than one show. So for those folks, we're trying it out. And there's no one better to do a deep dive with than Dr. Rella Christensen.

Rella Christensen was one of the founders of Clinical Research Associates (now TRAC). They've essentially been the "Consumers Reports" for dentistry for the better part of 40 years and you won't find anyone more knowledgeable on dentistry and dental materials than Rella. Our interview shows her kind demeanor as well as her no nonsense treatment of the data. She's going to change some minds with her discussion of modern crown and bridge materials, particularly monolithic zirconia and she's probably going to ruffle some feathers when she talks about enamel remineralization protocols and how everything we think we know about remineralization is wrong!

Oh...and don't get her started about sugar.

This is a really good interview with one of the smartest people in dentistry. Drink it all in, DentalHacks listeners!
