Dentsply Sirona Lab’s Cercon xt and Cercon ht zirconia now will be sold exclusively through Dentsply Sirona. According to the companies, the direct-to-customer distribution model will mean lower prices for labs, boosting their competitiveness in premium zirconia restorations.
“We are excited to offer Cercon exclusively through Dentsply Sirona because we can provide our customers the most appealing purchase options possible,” said Justin Zegar, product marketing manager for Dentsply Sirona Lab.
“For example, customers can take advantage of our lower everyday retail prices, competitive buy/get free disc bundles, and free next day shipping when they buy 20 or more discs. We are so pleased to be able to offer our customers more flexibility that will allow them to choose what works for their laboratory,” Zegar said.
Cercon xt offers approximately 49% translucency and shade accuracy designed to perfectly simulate lifelike aesthetics, especially for the anterior region. It also offers 750-MPa flexural strength and is indicated for all ceramic anterior and posterior restorations, including crowns and three-unit bridges up to the second premolar.
With high translucency and the highest level of color accuracy, Dentsply Sirona says, Cercon ht offers 1,200-MPa flexural strength. It suits anterior and posterior restorations including crowns, telescopic primary crowns, multi-unit bridges up to six units, and two-piece abutments.
Cercon xt and ht both are designed to provide premium aesthetics even in monolithic restorations. All Cercon materials are equipped with True Color Technology that accurately matches all 16 colors of the classic VITA shade guide, Dentsply Sirona says.
