Monolithic Strength with Natural Vitality

Obsidian All-Ceramic is a state-of-the-art restorative material that yields strong, beautiful results for virtually any indication in the mouth. Unlike traditional ceramic restorations, Obsidian restorations are chip resistant due to their monolithic composition and high flexural strength of 385 MPa. Not only does Obsidian All-Ceramic exhibit superior strength to competitors in its class, but it also mirrors the lifelike esthetics and authentic translucency of natural teeth. Designed to be conventionally cemented or adhesively bonded, Obsidian restorations are available in the 14 most popular VITA® shades.

The Dental Advisor: 3-Year Clinical Performance

After a three-year period, the Dental Advisor conducted a clinical performance on Obsidian. They recalled 206 Obsidian restorations and evaluated them in key areas such as esthetics, resistance to fracture/chipping, and wear resistance. This independent study reveals how Obsidian performed and provides important clinical findings on the material.

The High Flexural Strength of Obsidian Provides You with Greater Confidence

Obsidian exceeds the flexural strengths of competitors in its class. An innovative combination of more than 20 unique elemental oxides chosen from the periodic table (including zirconia) enable Obsidian to exhibit excellent properties.

Clinical Tips

The all-ceramic restorations must be etched prior to cementing. Refer to user manual for etching instructions (HF concentration and etching time).

The dental professional should use conventional, adhesive resin or self-adhesive resin cement for luting Obsidian. Adhesive cementation requires salinization or conditioning of the bonding surface of the restoration. Adhesive cement is preferred for inlays, onlays, and partial crowns. Anterior and posterior full restorations can be cemented with conventional, adhesive resin or self-adhesive resin cements.
