The Z4: Groundbreaking
The digital workflow makes it happen: you and your patients can benefit from more pleasant treatments with first-class restorations in just one session. The Z4 is an investment that will pay off for you: high-quality restorations with maximum independence. The number of machinable block materials constantly increases as well as the number of scanners and CAD software packages that are validated with the Z4.
From the intraoral scanner to the milling machine, users work with a single interface and therefore only need to familiarize themselves with one software package. This is the convenience of completely integrated workflows!
Study confirms: Z4 drills screw-access channels in highest quality
A scientific study at the University of Washington proved that using the Z4, users can drill screw-access channels for hybrid implant restorations into ceramic blocks with no signif-icant difference in flexural strength compared to factory-fabricated materials, known as “meso” blocks.
These blocks are significantly more expensive, and the laboratory design method requires a more sophisticated CAD process. Thus, processing standard blocks with the Z4 means less cost for material and less material inventory necessary.
