Material quality
Perfit ZR discs are manufactured in Korea by Vatech MCIS using premium Japanese zirconia powder from Daiichi Kigenso — one of the most trusted raw-material suppliers in dental zirconia.
That combination matters on the bench: Japanese powder grade for translucency and strength consistency, plus Korean manufacturing under Vatech’s Perfit program with documented sintering behavior across UT, ST, HT, and multilayer lines.
Premium Japanese yttria-stabilized zirconia raw material — the same tier many high-end disc brands build on.
Made in Korea under the Perfit brand — Uniform Compaction Firing, VITA-aligned shades, and a full UT→HT lineup from one manufacturer.
Predictable shrinkage, flexural strength by indication, and batch-to-batch aesthetics — not commodity disc roulette.
Why Vatech
From ultra-translucent anterior work to high-strength posterior bridges — plus multilayer and full-contour options — without mixing suppliers across your bench.
UT through HT plus multilayer — one manufacturer, consistent sintering behavior and shade logic across your bench.
Match your lab workflow: full custom staining, factory preshade, or gradient discs that cut chairside time.
Thickness minimums, connector sizes, and sintering schedules — the same data Ultran shares in portal Material Support.
Authorized Vatech distributor with warehouse stock, portal ordering, and lab-only support — not a generic marketplace.
Disc lineup
Specs below match Ultran's portal Material Support. After approval, sintering schedules, thickness minimums, and switch guides are available inside the app.
Ultra Translucent
Highest translucency in the lineup — anterior aesthetics where light transmission matters most.
Standard Translucent
The workhorse disc — versatile strength and aesthetics across most single-unit and bridge cases.
High Strength
Maximum strength for posterior load and long-span restorations where durability comes first.
Single-shade Multilayer
Built-in shade gradient in one disc — less staining time, consistent 4Y-TZP through the stack.
Translucent-to-Strong Multilayer
Incisal translucency (5Y) meets cervical strength (4Y) — best aesthetic outcome in multilayer.
Full contour
Full-contour zirconia
Pre-shaded full-shape discs for efficient full-contour workflows — I12, C14, and C16 variants including multilayer options.
Disc structure & shades
Schematic cross-sections for each Perfit ZR line — plus the VITA shade range available on Pre-Shade and multilayer discs. Detailed zone tables and coloring steps are in Material Support.
Single-shade Multilayer · 4Y gradient
Five interlocking 4Y zones — gear-mesh boundaries blend cervical to incisal for natural shade flow without manual buildup.
16 VITA classical shades on ST / HT / UT Pre-Shade, plus BL1 & BL3 on multilayer lines. Full coloring and sintering charts live in portal Material Support.
Swatches are approximate for web display. Match final shade under your lab's curing light.
Switching labs
Common US lab materials mapped to the closest Vatech disc — same logic as the Switch Assistant inside Material Support. Your mill, sprues, and cementation usually stay the same; sintering and coloring are what change.
| Current brand | Typical case | Vatech equivalent | Sinter | What to watch |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BruxZir (Glidewell) | Posterior single crown | Perfit ZR HTPerfit ZR HT · A2 · 14 mm | Set furnace to 1,550°C (not 1,530°C) | HT-to-HT: strength and opacity similar. Biggest visible change is inner Snow Light prep on Perfit HT — not your BruxZir coloring habit. |
| Katana STML | Anterior single crown | Perfit ZR TSMLPerfit ZR TSML · A2 · 16 mm | Set furnace to 1,530°C | Multilayer-to-multilayer (STML/TSML): shade is usually close. CAM positioning matters — shift 1 mm toward incisal if result runs dark. |
| Katana UTML | Anterior single crown | Perfit ZR TSMLPerfit ZR TSML · A1 · 14 mm | Set furnace to 1,530°C | Multilayer-to-multilayer (STML/TSML): shade is usually close. CAM positioning matters — shift 1 mm toward incisal if result runs dark. |
| Upcera — Explorer (multilayer) | Anterior single crown | Perfit ZR TSMLPerfit ZR TSML · A3 · 14 mm | Set furnace to 1,530°C | Upcera sinter temps vary by line (often 1450–1550°C). Do not copy your old Upcera program — use Perfit temps: HT 1550°C, ST/STML/TSML 1530°C, UT 1500°C. |
| Aidite — SuperfectZ HT | Posterior single crown | Perfit ZR HTPerfit ZR HT · A3 · 16 mm | Set furnace to 1,550°C (not 1,530°C) | Aidite SuperfectZ / 3D lines use brand-specific coloring. Perfit CL liquids may need one case to match your previous intensity — start with cervical body only. |
| IPS e.max ZirCAD MT (multilayer) | Anterior single crown | Perfit ZR TSMLPerfit ZR TSML · A2 · 14 mm | Set furnace to 1,530°C | Ivoclar MT/LT maps to Perfit STML/TSML or ST/UT depending on case. MT → TSML for anterior; MO/HT → Perfit HT for posterior. |
| IPS e.max ZirCAD LT | Anterior single crown | Perfit ZR UTPerfit ZR UT · BL1 · 14 mm | Set furnace to 1,500°C — lower than HT/ST | Ivoclar MT/LT maps to Perfit STML/TSML or ST/UT depending on case. MT → TSML for anterior; MO/HT → Perfit HT for posterior. |
| Cercon (Dentsply Sirona) | 3-unit bridge | Perfit ZR HTPerfit ZR HT · A2 · 14 mm | Set furnace to 1,550°C (not 1,530°C) | Cercon ht often maps to Perfit HT. inCoris T3 / multilayer → STML or TSML. Verify furnace hold time (2 hr standard). |
| Zirlux (Argen) | Posterior single crown | Perfit ZR HTPerfit ZR HT · A2 · 14 mm | Set furnace to 1,550°C (not 1,530°C) | Zirlux FC / ST often behaves like 4Y ST — map to Perfit ST or STML. Check if your line is multilayer before picking TSML. |
| VITA YZ (VITA) | Posterior single crown | Perfit ZR HTPerfit ZR HT · A2 · 14 mm | Set furnace to 1,550°C (not 1,530°C) | VITA YZ HT → Perfit HT. YZ ST / XT translucent → Perfit ST or UT. YZ coloring liquids differ — expect one pilot case to recalibrate chroma. |
