AuDental Press Ingots are made from high-purity lithium disilicate glass ceramic, offering excellent pressability, translucency, and flexural strength. With two translucency levels—HT (High Translucency) and LT (Low Translucency)—these ingots support a wide range of indications and techniques, including staining, cut-back, and minimal layering.

Translucency Options:

• HT – High Translucency: Best suited for anterior restorations and thin veneers where high esthetics and natural light transmission are critical

• LT – Low Translucency: Recommended for posterior crowns and cases where more opacity is needed to mask underlying tooth structure or post

Shade Options:

• VITA Classical A1–D4

• Bleach BL1–BL4

Indications:

• Veneers

• Inlays and onlays

• Anterior and posterior crowns

• 3-unit anterior bridges (up to premolar)
