Investment Materials

Dental investment materials are used to encase the wax designed for the lost wax casting technique. These materials are usually available as a powder that is mixed with water and then used to encase the wax design. These materials solidify and can withstand the heat of the casting furnace to hold the precise shape left behind when the wax is burned out. Different gypsums are designed for use with different dental alloys or other materials, so be sure to select the proper gypsum for the case at hand.

DescriptionThe proven standard for the Hygroscopic Technique. Also excellent for the High Heat Technique.The principal ingredient, CRISTOBALITE, gives high thermal expansion, even at comparatively low temperatures. It is possible to use the same creamy FASTFIRE 15 is a fine grain phosphate investment which requires only a 15 minute benchset before placing molds into a hot oven for rapid burnout. It This high-performance, universal investment works equally well for all alloys and pressable ceramics. Its wide expansion range allows the technician NOVOCAST is an advanced inlay investment that provides increased accuracy for casting conventional gold alloys at a mold temperature of 650 degrees C
