4all

Ni-Cr (61.4% & 25.7%)-based dental metal-ceramic alloy, Type 4

4all

4all is a nickel-chromium ceramic alloy. The reduced hardness makes it easy to process and the excellent melting and flow properties enable accurately fitting restorations.

Indications*

  • Telescope crowns, conus crowns
  • Bridges
  • Wide-span bridges
  • Cast posts / cores, bars, attachments
