I have been working with inCoris zirconium crowns, abutments, and bridges using the Ivoclar 90 minute rapid firing oven.  The Sirona inFire HTC has a record time of 10 minutes.  This opens new options for chairside InCoris ITS restorative protocols.  I will soon be posting videos with these applications.

Ivoclar will be adding several new milling blocks...C16 for the extra large restoration, the  B32 for the all e.max anterior bridge, and what I am drooling for, the implant abutment blocks.
