Procera Alumina and Procera Zirconia offer you two proven all-ceramic restorations that combine the vital, translucent esthetics of an all-ceramic with the strength and durability of a PFM. The Procera system provides two levels of core selection and material strength - the original aluminum oxide core of 687 MPa’s of flexural strength and the newer Zirconia core with 1158 MPa’s of flexural strength. 

Procera Alumina is composed of densely sintered high-purity aluminum oxide that is available in two layers of thickness - .4mm for anteriors and .6mm for posteriors. Procera Zirconia, made of yttria stabilized zirconium (YSZ), provides almost twice the strength of the original alumina. In addition, it can be placed anywhere in the mouth and can accommodate bridges up to 14 units. For complete information, please refer to our Procera Tech Sheet.
