Proven in clinical situations since 1993, Cristobal+ offers excellent esthetics and natural translucency that defies detection in the mouth. The material's exclusive post-curing polymerization process creates restorations with high hardness values, great overall flexural strength for exceptional fracture resistance and superb marginal integrity, making it the system of choice for indirect restorations. Cristobal + is so strong, it requires no substructure or framework of any kind. Yet, it is non-antagonistic, protecting opposing teeth while still supplying tremendous wear resistance. Cristobal +'s nonporous, biocompatible surfaces provides superior chairside polishability that is virtually impermeable to microorganisms. And, as they are mechanically polished, not glazed, the finish lasts indefinitely. There has never been a laboratory fabricated non-porcelain restoration that you can polish to such a lustrous natural shine! Clean-up with Cristobal + is a snap. The luting agent literally flicks off the material.

The Materials
The superior hardness of Cristobal + is due to its high degree of resin polymerization and the extraordinary bonding between the glass and polymer matrix. The Barium Borosilicate glass filler (approximately 74% by weight) in Cristobal + provides excellent matrix cohesion for strength, wear resistance and esthetics. The polymer (Bis-GMA based mixture - approximately 26% by weight) binds together the glass particles and demonstrates superior handling.

The Process
Cristobal + offers an impressive combination of elasticity and wear resistance through the highly cross-linked structure that develops during its two-stage curing process. The material offers greater resistance to localized resin deformation caused by chewing and/or hard food particles and a flawless, polished appearance. Additionally, the new post-curing unit improves overall flexural strength for exceptional fracture resistance and increases the cure to avoid flaking.
