Coltene’s Brilliant Crios reinforced composite bloc for permanent restorations combines all the advantages of an innovative submicron hybrid composite material with those of a CAD/CAM fabrication process for reliable, aesthetic, and fast restorations without a separate firing process, according to the company. Its outstanding mechanical properties are the result of controlled, stress-free thermal curing, Coltene says. The multimodal composition of dental glass and amorphous silica, in combination with a reinforcing resin matrix, make Brilliant Crios the ideal material for single-tooth restorations, the company says.
Brilliant Crios is a strong material that is high in flexural strength, Coltene reports. Its dentin-like modulous of elasticity reduces stress peaks during chewing, resulting in decreased risk of material fatigue. Due to its shock-absorbing effect, it is extremely well suited for implant restorations, according to the company. It also is distinguished by superior precision, Coltene says. Even when ceramic materials have started chipping, Brilliant Crios can still be ground with ease and precision in the case of extremely thin margins, says Coltene. This highly accurate precision offers greater freedom of preparation, the company reports.
