The Zirlux Layering Ceramic is the newest addition of the Zirlux Universal Zirconia System. This system not only consists of a new comprehensive Zirlux Layering Ceramic system which complements the Zirlux FC2 zirconia discs and blocks for layering traditional crowns and bridges over FC2 substructures or press to Zirconia with the newest line of translucent pressable pellets.

The versatile Zirlux FC2 pre shaded zirconia can be milled to full contour and brought to life with the Zirlux FC2 Characterization Pastes, or milled into copings/frameworks to be used with Zirlux LC for an even more natural result.

Getting started is easy using pre-shaded Zirlux FC2 discs or any Y-TZP zirconia framework with a CTE of (10-11) x (10-6)/°C. Simply layer the Zirlux LC starting with the Z stains to create the ideal core shade then layer the Zirlux LC Body & Incisal Powders using traditional layering techniques. Add in opaceous dentin powders to control opacity/translucency and enhance the shade of the restoration. Additional complementary modifiers are available to control translucency, opacity, hue, chroma and value in any layer.
