LAB CROWN RESTORATIONS WITH MULTILAYER ZIRCONIUM OXIDE LIKE
Cercon® ht ML and Cercon® xt ML
Cercon® ht ML is the high translucent, hybrid zirconia multilayer for the combination of high strength and natural aesthetics. From a single crown to a 14-unit bridge. No nesting restrictions even for widespan bridges. Excellent colour matching for all 16 VITA®¹ shades and BL2.
Cercon® xt ML is an extra translucent zirconia for monolithic restorations at the highest level. Especially in the anterior region for up to 3-unit bridges up to the 2nd premolar. Available in all 16 VITA®¹ shades and BL2.
Pre-Treatment of the Restoration:
- Sandblast the restoration
Material’s Flexural Strength2:
- Cercon® xt ML: approx 750 MPa
- Cercon® ht ML : 750 – 1200 MPa

CROWN RESTORATIONS WITH ZIRCONIUM OXIDE LIKE
CEREC® Zirconia+
CEREC® Zirconia+ mono is a pre-dyed high strength translucent zirconium dioxide which is available in 10 classic VITA shades and does not require any further shading with a liquid. The material is dry milled and then sintered. After the sintering process, CEREC® Zirconia+ reaches its final size. The enlarged milling ensures high precision and accuracy of fit of the final restoration.
Pre-Treatment of the Restoration:
- Sandblast the restoration
Material’s Flexural Strength2:
- +1000 MPa

Cercon® ht, Cercon® xt or Cercon® base
Cercon® ht with True Colour Technology sets new standards for zirconia when it comes to reproducing the classic 16 VITA®¹ and bleach shades (BL and BL2). It provides the highest level of colour accuracy.
Cercon® xt demonstrates extra high translucency in all 16 VITA®¹ and bleach shades (white and BL2) with True Colour Technology.
Cercon® base is particularly suitable for covering discoloured dies or titanium abutments and is available in 3 shades (white, medium and coloured).
Pre-Treatment of the Restoration:
- Sandblast the restoration
Material’s Flexural Strength2:
- Cercon® ht: approx. 1200 MPa
- Cercon® xt : approx. 750 MPa
- Cercon® base: approx.1200 MPa
