  • Vintage Porcelain

    Vintage Porcelain was developed for the efficient and cost-effective production of high quality aesthetic restorations. The easy to handle Vintage powders have a fluorescence similar to natural dentition with excellent color stability, even after repeated firings. Vintage’s light absorbency and reflectivity enable natural restorations to be achieved using the two-layer technique.

      • Abrasion values close to those of natural tooth enamel
      • High color accuracy even in thin layers
      • Natural opalescence and fluorescence
      • Developed according to the VITA* classical color system
      • Compatible with all common ceramic alloys

    *Vita is a registered trademark of VITA Zahnfabrik, Bad Säckingen, Germany

  • One Shot Uni-Layer Porcelain

    One Shot Uni-layer Porcelain is a revolutionary next generation ceramic material that dramatically improves productivity and aesthetic outcomes with a simplified, single powder build-up process. An extension to the popular Vintage MP and ZR product lines, just one baking cycle provides flawless color match for any Vita shade. The densely-packed homogeneous material yields vastly reduced shrinkage verses multiple firing-cycle techniques while allowing one powder to build to full contour.

  • Vintage MP Porcelain

    Vintage MP is a new generation of metal bond porcelain, designed with the latest­­­ discoveries in porcelain technology. The ultra-fine micro porcelain is adapted to the diffused light reflection of natural enamel and dentin. One advantage of an increase of the diffused light reflection of the dentin powders is that a greater part of the indirect light is not being refracted or spread by the opaquer, but is already in the dentin layer. The light optical properties of natural teeth are simply reproduced, and the contours of the opaqued metal frame are optically minimized.

      • Effortlessly build a 1.0 mm PFM
      • Exceptionally wide CTE range
      • Extremely fine and dense paste opaques
      • Enhanced bonding strength for all PFM alloys
      • Easily simulates the wear of natural dentition

  • Vintage ZR Porcelain

    Vintage ZR is a veneering material that matches the C.T.E. of any zirconia oxide substructure. Vintage ZR porcelain does not have the fracture and vitrification tendency of competitive porcelains. This user friendly and highly aesthetic porcelain has the same firing parameters as Shofu’s Vintage AL alumina substructure veneering material. The even distribution of leucite crystals in the glass matrix makes it very kind to the opposing dentition and results in aesthetics superior to any other zirconia porcelain.

      • Intuitive system components
      • Highly stable ceramic
      • Easy to learn color layout
      • Can be layered on any zirconia substructure

     

    SHOFU RAVES AND RECOMMENDATIONS

    Zirconia Copings
    Zirconia copings are softer than alumina frames, but the fracture toughness is much higher then alumina frames.

    Hardness Hv alumina (1900) zirconia (1400)

    Fracture toughness K1c MPa m1/2 zirconia (8.0-12.0) alumina (3.5-5.0)

    For best reduction of zirconium frames it is necessary to use equivalent calibrated rotation instruments to avoid the danger of micro cracks or separations.

    Such flaws could lead to complete failure of the restoration.

    Use SHOFU’s diamond impregnated CoreMaster for small adjustments.
