Description:

The GCA 012853 LISI PRESS INGOT LT-D4 is an excellent option for dental technicians aiming for a combination of mechanical durability and aesthetic appeal in lithium disilicate restorations. Designed for challenging clinical scenarios, this Low Translucency (LT) glass-ceramic ingot provides remarkable opacity, effectively covering discolored preparations, metal substructures, and implant abutments while still achieving a natural aesthetic result.

The D4 shade represents the deepest and richest color available within the VITA Classical shade range, making it particularly ideal for restorations for patients with naturally dark teeth or those needing prosthetics that harmonize with aging, heavily stained teeth. This ensures that restorations integrate smoothly with surrounding teeth, preventing the unnaturally stark contrast that lighter shades can create.

The lithium disilicate composition of this ingot promotes remarkable pressability, enabling dental technicians to craft restorations with accurate marginal fit, outstanding detail reproduction, and minimal reaction layer, which decreases the need for adjustments after pressing. Its high flexural strength and fracture toughness render it suitable for both anterior and posterior restorations, including full-contour crowns, veneers, inlays, onlays, and implant-supported prosthetics.

The GCA 012853 LT-D4 is designed to work with modern dental press systems and aligns seamlessly with contemporary techniques for staining, glazing, and layering, providing technicians with complete creative control over the final aesthetic outcome. Its reliable handling and consistent aesthetic performance make it a dependable option for laboratories tackling difficult cases where deeper chromatic restoration and robust durability are critical.

Each package contains five 3-gram ingots, offering an efficient and consistent solution for managing intricate, high-strength restorations with a need for naturally dark aesthetic qualities.
