GR Block is a Hybrid Ceramics Block for CAD/CAM use, created using a distinctive moulding technique (SIL) which is layered by injecting pastes with different colour tones simultaneously and polymerised in a block shape.
*SIL: Simultaneous Injection Layering Method
Because of SIL that makes layers before curing, the interfaces between each layer mixed very slightly so the natural colour gradation is realized
No fracturing happens at the colour-tone interface, and the same strength as a single-colour block is achieved.
Note: The colour tone of GR Block varies from higher to lower, as seen in the drawing. So, please be careful about the mounting direction of the block on the machining apparatus. Note: The colour tone of GR Block might not perform adequately in cases where the crown length is overly short.
Thanks to the multi-layer gradation, natural colour tone can be expressed simply by milling process
