What
is Press-To-Metal™?
Authentic Press-To-Metal™ is
a hybrid technique for creating restorations
that take advantage of the strength of metal
frameworks and the asthetic capabilities
of pressable ceramics.
Traditional lost wax copings are made and low fusing pressable ceramics are pressed
directly to the opaqued metal.
The resulting restoration presents the esthetic subtlety that can only be achieved
using the broad esthetic palette of pressable materials and the functional durability
of a cast metal subtrate.
Authentic Press-To-Metal™ is
the best of both worlds, strength and beauty. |
