Callisto 75 Pd is an economical palladium-based ceramic alloy. The high strength allows accurately fitting implant-supported superstructures to be produced; the low hardness makes it easy to process up to polishing.
Indications*
- Inlays
- Onlays, ¾ crowns, crowns
- Telescope crowns, conus crowns
- Bridges
- Wide-span bridges
- Cast posts / cores, bars, attachments
- Implant-supported superstructures
- Partial dentures
