Ivoclar PM 7: Advantages of Dental Veneers

Ivoclar PM 7 produced in Switzerland. With the increasing developments, investments, advancements, and use of Digital Dentistry, machines such as CAD/CAM are a must. Everything is adapted to the system of CAD/CAM machines. The reason why everything in digital dentistry is adapted around the CAD/CAM machines is because they are what carves the zirconia blocks to the shape that is meant. The shape and design, is created on the digitised computer environment of programmes and the colour is chosen by the patient, the zirconia blocks are all in different colour so the appropriate zirconia block of colour is chosen for the production of dental veneers, dental laminate veneers, and/or dental crowns.
