Prettau® 3 Dispersive®

Prettau^® 3 Dispersive^® - Zirconia with triple gradient

Zirconia with Gradual-Triplex-Technology: natural colour gradient, extremely high flexural strength and highly translucent cutting edge – available now!

Our Prettau^® Dispersive^® zirconia materials are provided with a gentle and natural colour shading already during the manufacturing process thanks to a smooth, dispersive shade transition. With the new Prettau^® 3 Dispersive^® zirconia, we have now developed a zirconia material with a triple gradient by using the Gradual-Triplex-Technology. In addition to the colouring, also translucency and flexural strength levels change. While the incisally increasing translucency results in a highly translucent incisal edge, the cervically increasing flexural strength results in an extremely high flexural strength at the tooth neck. Accordingly, Prettau^® 3 Dispersive^® can be used for all kinds of zirconia restorations, although it is particularly suitable for monolithic restorations. For a material-identical determination of the patient's tooth colour, special zirconia shade guides with sample teeth made of Prettau^® 3 Dispersive^® are available in the shape of a premolar as well as lower and upper incisors. Only if the material of the shade guide and the material of the zirconia structure are identical is it possible to achieve a restoration colour as close as possible to the patient’s natural teeth.

Properties at a glance:

Zirconia with Gradual-Triplex-Technology: Triple gradient with natural colouring as well as increasing flexural strength and translucency values
- Cervically increasing flexural strength; extremely high flexural strength at the neck of the tooth
- Incisally increasing translucency; highly translucent incisal edge
- Merging colour gradient that reproduces the natural tooth colours from dentine to enamel

Colour scheme from A1-D4 as well as 3 Bleach shades; special zirconia shade guides in the shape of a premolar as well as lower and upper incisors (also customisable!)
Manual colouring with Colour Liquids is not required anymore, but can be done with Colour Liquid Prettau^® Aquarell intensive colours to achieve a more patient-specific result
Indicated for reduced or monolithic single crowns, inlays, onlays, veneers and bar-supported multi-unit bridges. Especially suited for monolithic design
Fast sintering of single crowns possible
No ceramic chipping (thanks to the full anatomical design)
Personalisation after sintering with ICE Stains Prettau^® and ICE Stains 3D by Enrico Steger

Processing:

Placing the designed structure in the Zirkonzahn.Nesting software according to the displayed colour gradient
CAM-dry processing
Sintering (1500 °C); fast sintering of single crowns possible
Glazing with 3D Glaze Base, Glaze Plus
