German manufacturer VOCO introduces Cimara Zircon, a new and complete chairside Zirconia Repair System. It is designed to restore permanent fractures in zirconium dioxide veneers and crowns in a few simple steps. It saves time and money by avoiding second appointments, removal of the old restoration, impression taking, making of the provisional, and lab bills. The kit includes special zirconia grinding burs, a primer especially developed to bond to zirconium dioxide and its specific properties, an adhesive that bonds to all light, dual, or self-cured composites, and GrandioSO nano hybrid composite for the final esthetics. The primer/ adhesive system is also available as a separate item, and can be used to increase the bond strength of new zirconium dioxide restorations when using resin cement.The repair with Cimara Zircon creates a permanent bond between zirconium dioxide ceramic and composite. The kit that was especially designed for zirconia repair includes all the matching materials, and therefore results in much higher sheer bond strength values than other repair systems that are designed only for traditional ceramic repair.
