The porcelains processed on these substructure ceramics produced with maximum sensitivity have provided aesthetics much closer to the natural tooth. Being tissue-friendly, non-brittle and translucent have increased the long-term success of dental aesthetic treatments in the anterior region.

These glass ceramics which are produced by compressing with pressure under heat, are used in the production of Empress, Cerec, Ceram etc. In addition to the recently produced lithium disilicate crystals reinforced with Cad-Cam system and worked with the ceramics such as Empress 2 and E.max, both the front zone aesthetics and the posterior molar region has provided excellent aesthetics.
