01

Milligram-precise powder weighing.

Feldspathic porcelain, leucite-reinforced glass, yttria-stabilized zirconia.

Every batch starts on a calibrated Sartorius analytical balance. Particle size distribution is laser-diffracted before any powder enters the press. The coefficient of thermal expansion is verified against the substrate alloy before a single ingot is pressed.

Isostatic pressure. Controlled atmosphere.

Pressable leucite ceramic. 920°C firing under vacuum.

Ingots are pressed at 400 bar in a cold isostatic press, then sintered in a programmable vacuum furnace. Temperature ramp rate is 55°C/minute to 920°C, held for 8 minutes at peak, then slow-cooled at 5°C/minute through the glass transition zone to eliminate residual stress.

Hand-layered under stereomicroscope.

10× magnification. Incisal edge enamel applied in 0.2 mm increments.

Senior technicians layer feldspathic porcelain under a Leica S9i stereomicroscope at 10× magnification. The incisal edge enamel is built in 0.2 mm wet increments, condensed with a vibrating spatula, and fired in three separate passes to achieve the internal light scatter that matches living enamel under polychromatic illumination.

Final QC: optical profilometer + tactile marginal discrepancy gauge.

The glaze firing at 780°C produces a surface roughness of Ra < 0.2 μm — smoother than polished enamel. Each unit is then inspected under 5× magnification with an optical profilometer. Marginal discrepancy is measured at four cardinal points; any unit exceeding 60 μm is remade, not shipped.

I held the coping up to the light and the margin clicked onto my die with an audible snap. That hasn't happened with any other supplier.

We switched eighteen months ago. Remake rate dropped from 2.8% to 0.4%. The CTE match on their feldspathic is tighter than anything I've measured.

The translucency on the incisal third is the only ceramic I've found that passes under both operatory and natural light without adjustment.
