Description
DD cube ONE is Dental Direkt's high-translucent 4Y-TZP monolithic zirconia milling disc. The 4 mol% yttria, partly-cubic microstructure lifts translucency well beyond classic 3Y zirconia while retaining strength suitable for full-contour crowns and bridges. supplied as an uncolored white blank for free shading.
- 4Y-TZP partly-cubic chemistry — high translucency with reliable strength
- uncolored white blank for liquid/dip shading
- Full-contour crowns and bridges with a natural, vital appearance
- Ø 98 mm open-system carrier
- A balanced esthetic/strength choice between 3Y and 5Y blanks
Why You’ll Love It
- You want more translucency than 3Y without dropping to 5Y strength
- You shade in the lab and want a versatile white blank
- You handle anterior and posterior full-contour cases
