FCZ

Multi-layered Full Contour Zirconia

The FCZ crown or bridge is one of Peterson Dental’s longstanding products. The multi-layered and multi-strength solid zirconia is unmatched and virtually fracture-proof in the posterior given proper tooth preparation. With CAD/CAM technology, contact and occlusion adjusting are limited and virtually nonexistent.
