Is Zirace supplied sterile and for single use only?
Zirace is supplied as a single-use device and is not intended for reuse; it is provided non-sterile and must be sterilized by the user prior to clinical application.
What materials make up the Zirace abutment?
Zirace is composed of zirconium oxide stabilized with yttrium oxide, and contains niobium oxide and aluminum oxide to enhance mechanical properties and achieve a natural tooth-like color.
Can Zirace be used in MRI environments?
Zirace is not MRI compatible due to its metallic oxide content, which may cause image distortion or pose safety risks during magnetic resonance imaging procedures.
How is Zirace manufactured and customized?
Zirace can be machined using modern CAD-CAM technology, allowing for precise customization to match specific implant platforms and patient anatomical requirements.
