1. GC Initial™ Metal Ceramics, MC Dentin Refills
The GC Initial ceramic system consists of 6 ceramics integrated into one color system. This system allows the practitioner to use a range of ceramic materials in a single application while using only one layering technique and one color system.
- GC Initial MC is the metal-ceramic component of the GC Initial system that is specifically adapted for all conventional alloy types within a specific CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) range, irrespective of whether they contain silver, have a reduced gold content or are palladium based
- Feldspath ceramic with a firing temperature below 900°C
2. GC Initial™ Zr Dentin – GC America Inc
GC Initial™ Zr Dentin is part of the GC Initial™ ceramic system for high-strength zirconium frameworks. Dentin creates lifelike chroma to the dentin body and excellent masking even in very thin layers.
3. GC Initial™ Metal Ceramics – MC Opaque Paste
The GC Initial ceramic system consists of 6 ceramics integrated into one color system. This system allows the practitioner to use a range of ceramic materials in a single application while using only one layering technique and one color system.
- GC Initial MC is the metal-ceramic component of the GC Initial system that is specifically adapted for all conventional alloy types within a specific CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) range, irrespective of whether they contain silver, have a reduced gold content, or are palladium based
- Feldspath ceramic with a firing temperature below 900°C
