KATANA™ Zirconia HTML Plus: Optimized for standardized procedures and more aesthetic outcomes
Using different zirconia materials depending on the indication and on patient-specific needs allows for the best possible outcomes, yet comes with the danger of mixing up processing protocols. Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc. (Kuraray Noritake Dental) eliminates this problem by offering a complete portfolio of KATANA™ Zirconia Multi-Layered materials with harmonized sintering schedules. The latest member of the KATANA™ Zirconia Multi-Layered Series, KATANA™ Zirconia HTML Plus, is available since September 1, 2021. In addition to the aligned sintering schedules, it offers an increased translucency and optimized colour without compromising its flexural strength.

KATANA™ Zirconia HTML Plus is based on its tried and proven predecessor KATANA™ Zirconia HTML and also offers a multi-layered colour structure and uniform strength distribution throughout the blank. It is suitable for a variety of indications including long-span bridges with a minimum wall thickness of just 0.4 mm in the anterior and 0.5 mm in the posterior region. This allows for minimally invasive preparations, while the user may choose between a monolithic, cut-back or framework design combined with the preferred finishing technique.
