VITA North America has introduced a new premium zirconia material, VITA YZ® MULTI TRANSLUCENT, designed to elevate esthetic and functional outcomes for dental laboratories. This advanced material merges the high translucency of lithium disilicate with the durability and stability of zirconia, making it an ideal option for a wide range of restorations.
Engineered for monolithic crowns, partial crowns, veneers, onlays, and full-arch implant-supported bridges, VITA YZ MULTI TRANSLUCENT simplifies material selection by eliminating the need for multiple zirconia discs of varying strengths.
One of the standout features of this material is its fast sintering time at just 50 minutes, ensuring that even large-span bridges can be processed efficiently without compromising strength or accuracy. With its multi-gradient technology, the material provides a natural shade transition and a balanced interplay of translucency and flexural strength, particularly in the cervical and dentin regions where stress loads are highest.
VITA’s proprietary shade-matching technology guarantees seamless integration with the widely used VITA classical A1-D4® shade guide. The material is available in all 16 classical shades, along with three bleached shades (0M1, 0M2, 0M3), offering technicians a versatile solution for meeting patient esthetic demands.
As digital workflows and high-efficiency production become the standard in modern labs, the introduction of VITA YZ MULTI TRANSLUCENT provides an optimized zirconia option that balances esthetics, strength, and processing speed.
