Bredent Casting Technique

The bredent group is an internationally-active, familyrun company.
It develops and produces optimally coordinated standalone products, system solutions (e.g. in implant
prosthetics) and "Made in Germany" treatment concepts.
These enable dentists and dental technicians to produce
and maintain high-quality, precision, cost-effective
aesthetic restorations that ensure periodontal hygiene.
The bredent casting technique includes all work
processes required for the production of casting moulds
and the chemical-physical processes during melting,
casting and the re-solidification of materials. Materials
that are perfectly matched with this technique and the
processes are found in the certified symbiotic system
(css).

Systematic
procedure
Planning and
effects

A single biocompatible
material does not guarantee
biocompatible dental
restorations. High-quality,
biocompatible dental
restorations require thorough planning.
The bredent casting technique takes all essential
components of the combination "Patient Materials
Production" into consideration.

Systematic
procedure
bredent quality
The bredent casting technique
is based on the commitment
to quality and the requirements
of a responsible patient for
biocompatible dental
restorations under the aspect of long-term
biocompatibility.

Systematic
procedure
advantages
Sprues can be universally Used for
all alloys
Volume compensation results
in easy-to-polish casting without
shrinkage cavities
Special muffle shapes allow ideal positioning of
wax objects
Deformation-free spruing and investing reduce the
fitting time
Few Sprues for reduced material usage
Structured book "bredent casting technique" for
dependable use.

Systematic procedure
Development
The bredent casting technique is
a complete system.
It combines know-how and
materials.
The dental technician is enabled
to achieve reproducible, homogenous and patientcompatible results.

Systematic

Laboratory
situation
The
bredent casting
technique is matched with
the respective laboratory
situation to meet the
requirements for highquality dental restorations.

Systematic

Basic
requirements
To be able to successfully
apply the bredent casting
technique, competence
in the systematic
procedure
(according to Andreas Sabath).

fabrication
Thixo-Rock class
IV
super-hard
The
low expansion is just
stone

0.06 % after two hours

and the limit is 0.08 %.
This stone allows
reproduction of all details
of the original situation
and the fabrication of highly accurate dentures.
Thixo-Rock is available in brown, ivory and grey.

Model
fabrication
Duplicating
system
The duplicating technique
is the major element and
the basis for highly accurate
duplicates. The stable plastic
components of the bredent
duplicating system ensure unsurpassed precision
when preparing duplicates and reduce errors.

Model fabrication
Bresol N for the
one-piece casting
technique
Perfect control of the expansion
of brevest M1 in different areas
of an investment model,
recommended to use Bresol N
investment material liquid required for accurate
secondary structures in the one-piece casting technique.

Model
fabrication
Optimal mixing
Homogeneous mixing with
the ecovac mixing system.
The three-dimensional
ecovac mixing spiral in
conjunction with the
smooth surface and the conical shape of the bottom
of the ecovac mixing cup allows to take up all the
material inside and to mix it in horizontal and vertical
direction.

Preparation for
casting
Linear preheating

Preparation for
casting
Bar casting
When preparing sprues,
it must be ensured that
the sprues are directed
to the melting reservoir
via the center or heat.
A horizontal bar which is
placed in the center of the casting ring serves as
a melting reservoir.

Preparation for
casting
Attaching the rinsing
head
Correct dimensioning of the
sprue/s to be attached and
sufficient thickness of the
sprue/s and the rinsing heads
are essential for homogeneous
dental casting and ensure rapid flowing in.

Preparation for
casting
Casting with
If asprues
gold or precious metal
bonding alloy is used for
casting the framework, the
design shown in the pictures
is sufficient.
Crystallization cooling fins
or a second sprue are not required.

Preparation for
casting
Crown
When using NPM alloys
for all cast crowns or
bridges, sectional investing
is recommended to
improve the surface of the
casting.
The same applies to providing crystallization cooling
fins their use eliminates errors of investing or
porosities in the casting.

Preparation for
casting
Bar restorations
A correctly wax-up bar
structure needs to have
suitable sprues to ensure
perfect casting. It is essential
to obtain rapid and uniform
filling of the mould with the
alloy.

Preparation for
casting
CoCr restorations
The sprues must be
attached in a way to
ensure that they are
directed to the casting
funnel via the center
in the investment
muffle.

Flame centrifugal casting
The alloy is melted with
the flame and fed into
the cavity with the
centrifuge arm.
Unsuitable:Blow

Centrifugal casting with
crucibles
The alloy is melted with
the resistance heating
and transported/fed into
the cavity of the casting
with the centrifuge
arm.

centrifuge arm.

Overview casting techniques

Resistance-heated vacuum
pressure casting
The alloy is melted with
the resistance heating
and flows into the
cavity (oxygen-reduced
atmosphere); residual
filling is achieved by
pressurization.

Biocompatibilit
y
Careful
High-quality
planning
restorations are
based on careful
planning and
fabrication. If the
patient does not
have any
complaints over an
extended period,
our restorative work
has been highly
successful.

Biocompatibility
Analysis of the oral
situation
The first step in the fabrication
of biocompatible restorations
is the analysis of all materials
involved in the fabrication.
Interaction with existing
materials, defects/deficiencies
due to incomplete repair,
medication especially for chronically sick persons or
environmental pollutants affect the compatibility
considerably. Initial errors may already be made
during material tests if material samples/specimens
are prepared in an incorrect manner.

Biocompatibili
ty
Perfect fit
Biocompatible restorations
require perfect fit,
homogeneous casting
structure, suitable
connection technique and
surface treatment and
perfect bonding of the
veneer. Safe and dependable process parameters are
essential because control at a later time would involve
the destruction of the material.

Biocompatibility
Preconditions for wellbeing
A patient will only accept
the integrated
restoration if it
contributes to his wellbeing. Quality, esthetics
and bite situation are the
basic pillars and are
maintained by proper
oral hygiene and
nutrition and protect the
patient's health.
