Description

Vita VM13 Enamel is a highly-esthetic, fine-structure feldspar ceramic designed for full veneering of metal frameworks in the conventional CTE range, perfectly adapted to the CTE value of conventional bonding alloys (approximately 13.8–15.2 µm/mK) — regardless of whether the alloys are cast, milled, or sintered. VM13 Enamel provides a genuine alternative to all-ceramics, making it well-suited wherever the masking effect of a metal framework is required.

The firing temperature (880°C, dentine firing) provides enormous processing reliability, particularly for alloys with a low solidus temperature (<1100°C). Its main components are pure-grade potash and albite feldspar materials, offering brilliant shade effects along with unbeatable flexural strength. Thanks to its homogeneous, compact surface, VM13 Enamel supports outstanding grinding and polishing, particularly in situ, resulting in smooth, densely compact surfaces. This also significantly reduces plaque accumulation on the ceramic surface, supporting patients in caring for their high-quality restoration.

As a high-quality system component within the innovative Vita VM concept, VM13 Enamel offers a universal solution for all common indications — metal-ceramics, all-ceramics, or composite, the possibilities are extensive. Vita Akzent Plus and Vita Interno stains are also available for individual finalization.
