Cercon ht is based on the yttria-stabilized zirconia material Cercon base, which has been clinically proven for 10 years. With the addition of a minuscule amount of alumina, a modified production process and a sintering temperature adjusted to the specific requirements of this material, Cercon ht combines proven clinical safety with outstanding translucent properties.
Flexural strength: Cercon ht has the same flexural strength as Cercon base.
Long-term stability: Artificial-aging studies (thermal cycling and storing in a water bath) have shown that the long-term stability of Cercon ht is the same as for Cercon base.
Veneering characteristics: Cercon ht has the same excellent veneering characteristics as frameworks for metal-ceramic restorations, the gold standard.
Clinical safety: Cercon ht is the result of ongoing Cercon development efforts, offering comprehensive and validated safety.
