(en) Sintering Guide
The following sintering guide has been developed to provide optimal results for Harvest Nano® Zirconia.
Dental Indications:
All-on-X implant supported restorations.
Full contour crowns & bridges.
Veneers, inlays & onlays
Physical Properties:
CTE (25-500℃): 10.5×10-6/K
Flexural Strength: 1000-1200Mpa
Sintering Principles:
Do not let restorations overlap each other during sintering.
Use 1 layer of 2mm sintering beads for single units and bridges.
It is optional to use internal support for large bridges.
Allow the restorations to cool to room temperature before handling
Shading Considerations:
Higher than recommended temps reduce the chroma level of the restoration.
If shade is too light, adjust sintering program by lowering the high temperature by 50˚C or 25˚C.
If additional adjustment is needed, lowering by 50°C will increase the chroma by approximately the equivalent of 1 shade. Once the correct high temperature is used to achieve the accurate shade, all other shades will sinter accurately with that same high temperature
