Silhouette® is an exciting porcelain system designed to meet the demanding needs of the dental profession in achieving natural aesthetics. Silhouette® is made from the highest quality raw materials available, which can be seen in the clarity of the feldspar and the richness of the rare earths.
Silhouette fine grain structure and high coefficient of thermal expansion allow it to be fired on a wide range of alloys. The CTE for Silhouette® is 13.5 - 13.9 (25°C - 500°C); the acceptable CTE range for alloys is 14.1-15.1 (25°C - 500°C). Due to its non-greening formula, Silhouette® is an excellent choice when using silver containing alloys.
Silhouette® has excellent handling properties for the novice ceramist as well as the master ceramist. Silhouette will not tear like typical fine grain porcelains and shrinkage is minimal with no rounding of the incisal edges or secondary anatomy, thus requiring less, time consuming, benchside adjustments.
Silhouette® Porcelain exhibits natural fluorescence under different lighting conditions: northern light, incandescent light, and ultraviolet light. It also produces a beautiful natural glaze and vitality which allows the ceramist the ability to create realistic, life-like restorations.
Silhouette® is available in 16 shades keyed to the Vita® Lumin® Shade Guide, as well as 2 Hollywood shades A0 & B0, and consists of opaques (both powder and paste), dentines, enamels, and modifiers. In addition, the Silhouette® System includes a family of complimentary products that include Silhouette Secret®, Whisper®, SuperTrue™ Opalescent enamels, and Stains.
Silhouette® V-Shade Opaques are available in 16 shades keyed to the Vita® Lumin® Shade Guide
