Radiance Features and Benefits:    
   
  • Two-in-one-system that allows the fabrication of porcelain fused to metal, PFM, or full ceramic restorations with Aurident’s Press-i-Dent with one porcelain system

  • Can be used with all of Aurident’s and other ceramic alloys having a wide range of thermal expansion coefficients.

  • Radiance Porcelain utilizes Thin Membrane Nanotechnology which:
    -provides superior hue and chroma in thin sections
    -allows precise control of the hues, chroma, and translucence by traditional layering techniques
    -achieves uniform consistent color renditions time after time
    -requires lower inventory to obtain all shades

Radiance has a narrow particle size distribution of its powders that provides additional benefits to the user:

 
  • Greater homogeneity of the powder assures that the colors/hues are consistent without having to premix powders
  • Smaller particle sizes allow the porcelain to fuse uniformly and easily
  • The smaller particle sizes allows greater packing of the powders resulting in very low shrinkage – i.e., the technician can make the prosthetic to near net shape with fewer firings
  • Higher density of the porcelain allows for more durable product that is easier to polish.

Radiance’s relatively low thermal expansion coefficient of 13.6 allows compatibility with a large range of ceramic alloys and with Press-i-Dent pressable ceramic.

Radiance’s mechanical, solubility and thermal properties compare favorably with competitive systems.
