Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between LT and HT lithium disilicate press ingots?

LT (Low Translucency) ingots provide greater masking capability, making them ideal for hybrid restorations over dark or discolored substrates. HT (High Translucency) ingots allow more light transmission for a more lifelike appearance on naturally colored preparations.

What pressing temperature should I use for these ingots?

The recommended pouring temperature is 910-920°C. Always calibrate your pressing furnace and follow the investment system manufacturer's guidelines for best results.

How many units can I press from one ingot?

Each 12.5x10mm ingot can typically press 1-2 single units depending on the size and anatomy of the restoration. For larger bridges, multiple ingots may be required.

Are these ingots compatible with IPS e.max pressing systems?

These ingots are designed for standard lithium disilicate pressing workflows and are compatible with most commercial pressing furnaces. Consult your equipment documentation for specific temperature and pressure settings.

What shade options are available?

Multiple Vita-compatible shades are available, including the BL1-BL4 bleach shade range, allowing you to match virtually any clinical shade requirement.
