Katana STML Zirconia Pucks

Description

KATANA™ Zirconia STML by Kuraray Noritake

KATANA Zirconia STML (Super Translucent Multi-Layered) pairs 748 MPa flexural strength with a graduated translucency profile, so one disc handles esthetic anterior work and durable posterior crowns and bridges. Four seamlessly blended layers reproduce the chroma and translucency of natural teeth — no visible transition lines, no layering porcelain required.

Features & Benefits

• Natural multi-layered color gradient – four layers (Enamel, Transition 1, Transition 2, Body) mimic natural tooth anatomy from incisal to cervical.
• Versatile indications – anterior and posterior crowns, frameworks and bridges up to 3 units, plus veneers, inlays and onlays.
• Rapid sintering – speed-sinters in as little as 20 minutes in compatible chairside furnaces (cycle time depends on your furnace), with standard and fast lab cycles also available.
• High surface quality & milling precision – in-house raw material production gives excellent edge stability, minimal chipping and a smooth surface after milling.
• Finishing flexibility – ideal for monolithic ultra-micro-layering with CERABIEN™ ZR FC Paste Stain or vestibular cutback micro-layering.
