Opalite™
Opalite™ is a monolithic zirconia which requires much less preparation space than traditional crowns; whilst also being far more aesthetic than traditional PFM restorations.
Every dentist has experienced challenging situations with bruxers and grinders. Opalite™ Restorations have a flexural strength of 1100MPa and are virtually clinically unbreakable. Opalite™ all-zirconia crowns and bridges are designed digitally and milled using CAD/CAM technology before being polished to a high standard finish.
