Achieve Perfect CAD/CAM Restorations With Amber Mill Lithium Disilicate
Clinicians and dental technicians all over the world have been using the Amber range of lithium disilicate glass ceramics to create aesthetic, reliable and hardwearing restorations. Now, DB Lab Supplies is delighted to be in partnership with Korean manufacturer HASS Bio (Human Aid System Supplier) to bring Amber to the UK market.
A revolutionary machinable lithium disilicate
Economical and efficient in application, Amber Mill lithium disilicate ceramics are creating a demand among dental technicians and clinicians. Amber materials have excellent optical properties, a simple processing method and possess an impressive flexural strength.

Amber Mill: Achieve greater control over translucency
Amber Mill is available in blocks and blanks and is suitable for the fabrication of crowns, bridges, inlays onlays and veneers. The nano- lithium disilicate technology (NLD) offers a range of advantages including the unique ability to control translucency by adjusting the firing temperature - one ingot can produce four variations - HT, MT, LT and MO.
The user selects the translucency and the firing temperature determines this. During the heat treatment, crystal size and density are increased and consequently, the mechanical properties are reinforced and translucency value changed. The higher the temperature when firing, the more opaque the restoration.
Even after finalising, the translucency can still be adjusted as the restoration can be refired from HT-MT onwards. The advantage of this is the ability to achieve a wide spectrum of light-optical properties with a quarter of the usual number of blanks required. Due to its natural-looking light-reflecting properties (remarkable Opalescence and fluorescence), Amber Mill produces excellent aesthetics.

High edge stability
The biaxial flexural strength is 450 MPa after crystallization, making restorations monolithic, and its strength in its milling state is 250MPa. These properties enable high edge stability with more predictable mills and no chipping. Amber Mill is also compatible with the majority of veneering ceramics.
