Episode 95: "Pioneers of Full Arch Zirconia-Where Do We Go from Here? Featuring Conrad Rensburg and Jack Marrano" Jul 10, 2019

Show notes

Dental Guys 3M Promotion www.3m.com/dentalguys

Conrad Rensburg and Jack Marrano of Absolute Dental Services, a lab in North Carolina, join us to talk about their journey with full arch implant prosthetics. They were both heavily involved with the early work on full arch zirconia prosthetics and have pushed it to a very high level in their lab. We ask them whether it is still the best material out there for full arch implant restorations or if there are better alternatives. What does it mean that labs are testing these new materials on our patients? Is it too progressive or is it the way of the future? They give a compelling case as to why we should all be considering these new materials as they are changing what we think about affordability and durability at the same time.
