We
exclusively use Ivoclar Vivadent’s
IPS d.SIGN® porcelain
for all of our porcelain to
metal restorations.
IPS d.SIGN® is a revolutionary
new glass-ceramic-fused-to-metal
system featuring a patented
new "Fluorapatite-Leucite
Glass-Ceramic" with matching
alloys. This patented formula
replicated the shape of the
needle like hydroxy-apatite
crystals found in natural
tooth structure.
IPS d.SIGN® has a unique
combination of Fluorapatite
and Leucite crystals that
imitate the optical properties
of natural teeth, dispersing
light throughout the material
in a manner similar to natural
dentition.
IPS d.SIGN® offers superior
wear characteristics similar
to enamel. Other porcelains
that can be used is the Vita
900 with the 3D porcelain
shade guide. (Vident) |
