MicroPk™
Conserva Crowns
MicroPk™ Conserva Crown is a trademark of very thin, white, and flexible customized crowns, for posterior teeth for adults. It fully covers yourt teeth thus conserving and protecting your natural teeth.
Value Proposition
​
MicroPk™ Conserva crowns offer, for the first time in the history of conservative dentistry, a solution to preserve and even regeneratte your natural teeth. Preservation and regeneration are the best adjectives to define this solution. Do not extract, do not remove, do not drill, just cover your weakened and caries-prone tooth with a MicroPk™ Conserva crown.
​
​
Advantages
The MicroPk™ Conserva crowns, due to their flexibility allow covering your caries-prone or weakened teeth with a very durable yet incredibly thin cap that will protect your natural tooth against posterior damaging or caries, further permiting regeneration of damaged tissues. A quick application, with no anesthesia or pain, causing nearly no oclusion, are some of the uncomparable advantages over other existing solutions.

Crown Thickness
MicroPk™ Conserva crowns are thinner than all other crowns, including SS or zirconia crowns. The thickness of MicroPk™ crowns can go less than 100 micrometers (0,1 milimeters) the thickness of a human hair. This is much thinner than all other options available in the market, and allow for no occlusion after crowns placement.
No pre-treatment – no anesthesia – no pain
MicroPk™ Conserva crowns completely avoid preliminary tooth preparation. No tooth preparation means that anesthesia is not needed and pain is completely avoided. Save time, save money, and main of all avoid discomfort of tooth preparation.
Wear and toothbrush resistance
Durability of MicroPk™ Conserva crowns is at least 10 years, and almost twice wear resistant than SS crowns. As long as correct placement protocol is followed, durability is not an issue. Aesthetics is also preserved over time
​Excellent biological behaviour
MicroPk™ Conserva crowns have excellent biological compatibility and anti-bacterial behaviour, similar or superior to SS crowns. Its reduced bacterial adhesion/colonization properties make this material excellent as regard to adverse effects on gingival health and gum recession.
Very accurate fitting to tooth geometry
MicroPk™ Conserva crowns fit to tooth geometry with fitting errors less than 50 micrometers thus allowing the crowns to fit perfectly to tooth surface and be nearly imperceptible in tooth volume. This allow for nearly no occlusion, even when several crowns (up to eight) are applied in the same appointment.
One appointment - several crowns
One of the great advantages of MicroPk™ Conserva crowns is that they offer the possibility of placing several crowns (up to eight) in a single appointment, with virtually no observable occlusion. This results from several other advantages of these crowns such as their low thickness, their flexibility, and their customization to the patient's teeth. Save money, save time.
Natural tooth preservation
non invasive
MicroPk™ Conserva crowns allow preservation of natural tooth including total enamel structure. There is no need to remove, partially or totally, the enamel of the tooth with the eventual exposition of dentine. The natural tooth preservation avoids eventual hot/cold sensitivity due to tooth preparation.
Excellent aesthetics
MicroPk™ Conserva crowns are white in color being then more aesthetical than SS metallic color. Although not completely matching the natural tooth color MicroPk™ conserva crowns have much a pleasant appearance.
Impact, mechanical and fatigue resistance
Durability of crowns depend also on their mechanical, impact and fatigue resistance. MicroPk™ Conserva crowns are very resistant with almost illimited duration, even for adults, as long as proper placement protocol is followed.
Crown Flexibility
MicroPk™ Conserva crowns are made of a flexible material fitting the tooth as a glove. Besides being customized, the crown deforms to enter the tooth anatomical equator, and reshape to fit the tooth geometry like a glove.
Strong bonding to adhesives
MicroPk™ Conserva crowns are manufactured with an inner pre-treated surface that assures strong bonding to some adhesives. Values of shear bonding strength of 30MPa are obtained which provides a strong adhesion to enamel. The choice of the adhesive is very important on MicroPk™ conserva crowns adhesion.
