Why all-ceramics? The VITA all-ceramic systems for fillings, veneers, crowns, bridges and implant abutments consist exclusively of ceramic. This high-quality material from the "treasure chamber" of nature has already proved its durability and oral resistance in millions of cases.
The advantages of the VITA all-ceramic system are:
It is only by imitating the natural way of refracting the incident light that a tooth makes a natural and vivid impression. Compared to traditional prostheses, all-ceramic restorations have no metal substructure that lets your prostheses appear unnaturally opaque and hardly vivid.
In other areas, ceramics has shown its potential for a long time. Whether serving as a thermal shield in the aerospace industry, as a brake disk in the automotive industry or as an artificial joint in medical technology:
The modern technical ceramics – with regards to its stability – suit many more requirements than just manufacturing wash-basins or tableware. With the introduction of highly stable ceramics for the stabilization of crowns and bridges instead of metal frameworks a new era has begun in dentistry.
By means of zirconium oxide (also called ceramic steel) today the manufacturing of large bridges has been possible where so far a metal substructure had been necessary.
VITA all-ceramics is usually well tolerated by the body. Your sense of well-being will not be impaired by undesirable reactions, such as metal taste with existing prostheses. Allergic reactions to the material are virtually excluded.
VITA all-ceramics stand for a high longevity, often for decades.
In contrast to metal that conducts heat, ceramics act as a good thermal insulator. Even with sensitive teeth, hot/cold changes cause no irritation at all.
VITA In-Ceram provides you with security, since this material has been used worldwide for 15 years and has proven its worth a million times over. The high durability of VITA In-Ceram restorations is particularly based on the stability of the all-ceramic framework.
