MICRO-LAYERED AESTHETICS ON ZIRCONIA AND LITHIUM SILICATE
Natural Ceramic System is the dynamic ceramic system created by Tressis Italia which includes the CRYSTAL project, special ceramic gel for micro-layering.
CRYSTAL is made of two kits: CRYSTAL LIVE! masses to micro-layer different areas of the tooth and CRYSTAL GUM masses to characterize gingival areas.
Both kits make up Natural CRYSTAL ceramic gels for micro-layering and creating special effects on: monolithic zirconia, layered ceramic on zirconia, milled and pressed lithium silicate, metal ceramic.
With CRYSTAL ceramic masses you can obtain a high aesthetic yield and special effects such as emphasizing incisal areas, characterizing pits, creating crack-lines, delineating mamelons etc.
With CRYSTAL it is possible to obtain excellent results, completely comparable to traditional layered ceramic, with very thin thicknesses (0.1 - 0.2mm).
CRYSTAL gels have an ideal consistency and great stability, this allows for complex effects to be built. Furthermore, on brush-modeled surfaces, it is possible to increase the aesthetic effect through the surface texture.
The firing temperature of the CRYSTAL materials is low and does not change the zirconia colors and the integral and lithium silicate ceramics.
CRYSTAL gives beauty to restorations with just one firing.
