framework design
Design the framework with a reduced anatomical shape taking the planned press-on procedure into account. The wall
thickness for single crowns should be at least 0.3 mm and at least 0.5 mm for abutment crowns. Make sure to provide
sufficient stability of shape for the framework. Avoid sharp transitions and edges. Design the connector areas between the
individual units in such a stable way that they meet the requirements of interdental hygiene and the alloy used.
Design the framework in a reduced supported shape.
– due to the optical properties, the ceramic should feature a thickness of at least 0.8 mm in connection with
the press-on-metal technique.
– especially if frameworks are to be pressed over, it is recommended to attach retention grooves in the
palatal / lingual area.
