Hocera Multilayer Zirconia Disc 98mm

High-Strength CAD/CAM Zirconia for Natural, Full-Contour Restorations

Introduction

The Hocera Multilayer Zirconia Disc 98mm is a high-performance multilayer zirconia disc developed for dental laboratories that require both aesthetic realism and mechanical reliability in daily CAD/CAM production.

Unlike conventional monolithic zirconia blocks, this multilayer zirconia disc integrates color, translucency, and strength into a single structure. As a result, dental technicians can fabricate anterior and posterior restorations without additional staining or complex layering steps.

By combining an advanced gradient design with stable sintering behavior, Hocera provides a zirconia solution that supports predictable results across crowns, bridges, and implant restorations. Therefore, laboratories can reduce remakes while maintaining consistent esthetic outcomes.

Natural Aesthetics with 4D Multilayer Technology

The Hocera multilayer zirconia disc uses advanced 4D gradient technology to reproduce the optical behavior of natural teeth. Specifically, translucency gradually transitions from the incisal edge to the cervical zone, creating depth and vitality similar to enamel and dentin.

At the incisal area, higher translucency (up to 57%) allows light transmission that mimics natural enamel. Meanwhile, the cervical area maintains lower translucency (around 43%), which effectively masks underlying abutments or discolored substrates. Consequently, restorations achieve both esthetics and functional stability.

Moreover, the disc features an internal multilayer color structure. This structure ensures smooth shade transitions without visible boundaries, which improves visual integration with adjacent natural teeth.

Strength Where It Matters Most

In addition to esthetics, mechanical performance is a critical factor in zirconia selection. The Hocera multilayer zirconia disc offers a functional strength gradient ranging from approximately 800 MPa to 1200 MPa.

This strength distribution is intentionally designed. Higher strength zones support functional load in posterior regions and multi-unit bridges, while esthetic zones maintain sufficient translucency for anterior restorations. As a result, one disc can reliably cover a wide range of clinical indications.

Furthermore, the dense microstructure and controlled sintering behavior reduce the risk of chipping, delamination, and long-term fatigue. This stability is especially important for full-contour restorations and long-span bridges.

Indications and Clinical Applications

Thanks to its balanced optical and mechanical properties, the Hocera multilayer zirconia disc is suitable for a wide variety of restorations:

• Anterior and posterior full-contour crowns

• Multi-unit bridges, including long-span restorations

• Inlays and onlays

• Implant-supported restorations

• Full-arch prosthetic frameworks

Because the disc is designed for open CAD/CAM systems, it integrates seamlessly into modern digital workflows used by professional dental laboratories.

Laboratory Workflow Advantages

From a production perspective, this multilayer zirconia disc is optimized for efficiency. Its homogeneous internal structure ensures stable milling behavior, which reduces tool wear and improves margin accuracy.

In addition, pre-shaded multilayer design significantly reduces manual staining and characterization steps. As a result, laboratories can shorten production time while maintaining consistent esthetic quality across batches.

The predictable sintering shrinkage and dimensional stability further improve first-fit accuracy. Therefore, technicians can rely on repeatable results even in high-volume production environments.
