VHT, in the context of dental zirconia, stands for Extra Very High Translucency. It refers to a type of zirconia material used in dental restorations, like crowns and bridges, that offers a high level of light transmission, making the restoration appear more natural. This contrasts with other types of zirconia that might be more opaque

• Zirconia in Dentistry:

  Zirconia is a popular material for dental restorations due to its strength, durability, and biocompatibility.
• Translucency:

  Translucency refers to how much light can pass through a material. In dental restorations, higher translucency means the restoration will better mimic the appearance of natural teeth.
• VHT Zirconia:

  VHT zirconia is specifically designed to provide a high level of translucency, making it suitable for various restorations, including those in the posterior (back) and full arch (multiple teeth) areas.
• Benefits of VHT Zirconia:

  • Natural Appearance: The high translucency helps the restoration blend in with surrounding teeth, creating a more aesthetic result.
  • Strength: VHT zirconia maintains the strength and durability associated with zirconia materials.
  • Versatility: Its suitability for both posterior and full arch restorations makes it a versatile choice for different clinical situations.

⚠️ Caution When Using Zirconia Disc:

1. Handle With Care
   Zirconia discs are brittle before sintering. Avoid dropping or striking the disc.

2. Use Proper Tools
   Only use compatible CAD/CAM milling machines and burs designed for zirconia.

3. Wear Protective Equipment
   Always wear eye protection, a dust mask, and gloves during milling to avoid inhaling zirconia dust.

4. Follow Sintering Protocols
   Always follow the manufacturer’s sintering temperature and schedule. Incorrect sintering can affect strength and translucency.

5. Avoid Contamination
   Keep the disc in a clean, dry environment. Contaminants can affect bonding and aesthetics.

6. Observe ROHS and FDA Compliance
   Ensure materials meet ROHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) and dental safety standards.

7. Do Not Use If Damaged
   Discs with visible cracks or chips should not be used, as they can break during milling or sintering.
