How do CERAMIR CAD/CAM BLOCKS compare with other materials in terms of mechanical properties/strength?
In terms of strength- flexural strength as well as compressive strength Ceramir CAD/CAM BLOCK is very similar to values we see from lithium disilicate materials.
What’s interesting and stands out when comparing Ceramir CAD/CAM BLOCKS with ceramic materials is that Ceramir CAD/CAM BLOCK shows bio mimetic properties when looking at resilience / flexibility it is similar to what we see in natural dentin.
The same is when looking at surface hardness- Ceramir CAD/CAM BLOCKS shows 100 HV placing it in right in between the values that we see from natural enamel and natural dentin.
