Keep it simple and safe

Kiss veneering ceramics

Reduced number of masses

+ Fewer materials without sacrificing quality

The accurate categorization of the initial and intensive masses, the tinted liners and dentines and the universal mixing scheme makes for high aesthetic veneers without any quality loss: Use only 73 materials to do 100 % of all jobs.

+ Economic advantage

The reduced number of materials benefits your bottom line.

Perfect aesthetics Simple and safe

+ More shade fidelity

Optimized shade pigments enhance the shade fidelity of Kiss, similar to the

V-shades. This also largely eliminates the problem of differences in shade appearance under different lighting conditions.

+ Opalescent effect remains intact

In the classic high-fusing veneering ceramics, the opalescent effect can get lost after a number of firing cycles.

With Kiss, this effect – and with it the natural dynamic appearance – remains intact thanks to the patented manufacturing process used for the Kiss opalescent.

+ Simple and safe shade production and reproduction

Secure processing using a simple system for basic and custom build-ups.

+ Exactly matched shades across ceramic lines

Easy processing of different framework materials possible in the same patient case.

+ Uniform build-up system for all framework materials

No extra training cost or learning curve when switching from one framework material to another.

The ceramic line

Duceram Kiss

Whether Duceram Kiss, Duceragold

Kiss or Cercon ceram kiss – all these lines represent the Kiss system and were designed to make your work as easy as possible. Switching between the framework materials is thus no longer a problem and requires no training or familiarization period.

Duceram Kiss is characterized by

DeguDent’s shade philosophy, ensuring a maximum of reproducibility when working with V shades. Other important benefits of Duceram Kiss are its robust handling and its broad CTE range of 13.8 to 15.4 µm/m · K (25–600°C).

When Duceram Kiss was developed, special attention was paid to perfecting aesthetics – always a particular challenge when dealing with high-fusing materials.

We were able to further improve the opal incisals, using a novel and patented production process.

Duceram Kiss – an ideal and reliable partner in high-fusing ceramics.

100 % of jobs with only 40 materials

All V shades can be produced with the 40 materials shown here, without any mixing at all. Our six incisals allows a better representation of the V shades in the incisal area. All liners are precisely adjusted to the respective basic shade. Their fluorescence levels are adapted to the different shade intensities and, consequently, to the natural tooth model.

A superb base for your daily work – effortless success for almost everything you attempt.

Fluorescent Power Chromas

The six fluorescent Power Chromas can reproduce the bulk of all cervical and mamelon effects as well as increases in chroma.

Simple 1 : 1 mixtures between these Power Chromas results in an additional 15 intermediate shades.

Custom incisals, opal effects and multifunctional

Stand by

The individual incisals within the Kiss system allow the emulation of all natural opalescent and fluorescent effects.

Opal incisals 1 and 2 are intended for lighter (OS 1) and darker

(OS 2) shades. For intermediate shades, the two material are simply mixed at a 1 : 1 ratio.

The same principle holds for Flu Inside 1 and 2. These highly fluorescent materials are designed for the inner layers, covering the liner even where space is at a premium, while at the same time increasing value in the incisal area.

White Surface (WS) is a whitish opalescent effect used to increase surface value (brightness). Here, too, the effect can be attenuated by 50% by adding Stand by. To reproduce the effects of teeth that have been bleached, Bleach Liner and

Bleach Dentine are available. A particularly successful and versatile correction material is the transparent Final Kiss.

The Stand by multifunctional material is a strongly transparent opal effect that is one of the keystones of the Kiss system.

It can be used by itself or mixed with any other materials. The three opal effects, Ocean, Sky and Fog, control value and opalescence in bluish and greyish incisal regions.

Sunset and Sunrise are suitable for incisal characterization and for subdued transparent chroma gradations in the body region.

Flu Inside

Fluorescent dentines (used e.g. as modifiers for dentine mamelons) are dentines characterized by pronounced fluorescence.

They enhance the luminescence of the veneer. Short-wave invisible light is absorbed, long-wave visible light is emitted.

Liner Orange

For characterizing occlusal, cervical and palatal regions.

Liner Bleach

For extremely bright/bleached teeth. Normally used in connection with bleach dentines only.

Liner Gum

For gingival aspects.

Power Chroma

The Power Chromas are highly chromatic, fluorescent intensives for individual shade reproduction.

All Power Chromas are used for shade support in the cervical, palatal and occlusal regions. They are used as is or mixed at a 1 : 1 ratio. When mixed with Stand by, they are also very appropriate for mamelons. Shade assignments are indicative only.

Stand by

Highly opalescent, almost transparent multifunctional material. Stand by can be used by itself or mixed with all other materials within the Kiss system.

Stand by thus has a key function within the system.

OE Sunrise / OE Sunset

Opalescent effect for yellow incisal aspects; very well suited for increasing chroma during the second or third dentine firing.

Predominantly for B colours; can be attenuated using Stand by.

OE Ocean

Opalescent effect for intense, deep blue incisal aspects; can be attenuated using Stand by.

OE Sky

Opalescent effect for delicate blue incisal aspects; can be attenuated using Stand by.

OE Fog

Opalescent effect for grey incisal aspects; can be attenuated using

Stand by

White Surface

Whitish opalescent effect for emphasizing posterior cusps and anterior palatal/lingual ridges; can be attenuated using Stand by.

Shade fidelity

By optimizing the percentage of pigments in the ceramic material, Kiss marks another success in terms of increasing shade fidelity in relation to the V shades.

Optimizing the percentage of pigments is also a major part of the solution to the problem of metamerism (where the appearance of the shade varies depending on the various sources of light such as typical indoor lighting or outdoor daylight).

Aesthetics

When it comes to high-end restorations, Kiss will allow you to achieve a top-quality veneer in a manner that is both faster and simpler. The opalescent material – which is one of the aspects responsible for the natural and light-dynamic appearance of the restoration – has been significantly optimized using a patented production process.

02

Aesthetic Line Custom

The difference between a basic buildup technique and a custom build-up technique should be recognizable, yet easy to achieve. The systematic Kiss approach was designed to help you aspire to – and reach! – the ultimate level of quality in dental technology.

The Kiss concept offers a variety of nuanced shades to reproduce naturallooking teeth, as already described in detail in the previous pages. The liner already gives you the option to apply nature-like characterizations. In subsequent steps, the 21 Power Chroma options in the cervical and occlusal care regions the necessary vitality and depth due to an excellent balance of chroma and fluorescence.

If very thin layers must be used or in aesthetically challenging cases, the framework can be covered with the highly fluorescent Flu Inside. As shown in the build-up graph, it is simply applied to the framework or coping, lengthening the incisal edge. Gray Inside is a fluorescent dentine that can be used to compensate for high-value framework aspects in the incisal region. This will scatter and reflect the light in the critical transition area from the framework/coping to the ceramic veneer and optically conceal the incisal edge of the coping. Additional dentine layers are built up as usual. It is always recommended to build up to full contour, followed by a precise and welldefined cutback. Power Chroma can be used again to achieve mamelon effects; they can be attenuated as needed with the multifunctional Stand by.

A comprehensive selection of incisals, opalescents and opal effects is available for building up of the incisal edge of the crown. Pronounced yellowish or orangecoloured opals can be used to effectively support the basic shades used. At the same time, they give the tooth a naturelike sense of depth and transparency.

Transpa Red is a transparent effect allowing additional customization of reddish tooth shades. Older teeth can also be easily reproduced naturally using the greyish transparent material OE Fog.

For the second dentine firing, ridges and cusp inclines can be optically enhanced by simulating decalcification areas, using

White Surface.

01 02

Framework preparation

After finishing with tungsten-carbide cutters, unless otherwise recommended by the alloy manufacturer, sandblast the metal framework with aluminium oxide (100–150

µm at 2–3 bars for precious alloys and

25 µm at 3–4 bars for non-precious alloys).

For more details on non-precious alloys, see page 25. Perform the oxidation and subsequent oxide removal according to the specifications of the alloy manufacturer.

Opaque firing

To give the framework the appropriate basic shade, both paste and powder opaques are available with Duceram Kiss. Either way, apply the first opaque in a uniform, semi-covering layer and then fire it (see the firing recommendations on p. 24 ff.). For non-precious alloys, it is recommended to first apply a thin but covering layer of NE-

Bonder. If you use bioalloys, you should employ the neutral paste for the first opaque firing in order to reduce the firing temperature. This is yet another way in which you benefit from added processing reliability. Then cover the entire framework entirely in a second step and fire as per the firing recommendations.

Note on opaques

Mix the powder opaque with the OCL modelling liquid. If you need to dilute the paste opaque, use only the paste opaque fluid specifically designed for this purpose.

Dilution, if necessary, should be performed outside of the vial. In addition, please note the extension of the predrying time by 1–2 min.

General notes on veneering non-precious alloys

Since non-precious alloys and precious alloys react differently to ceramic firing, the following parameters should be observed for the safe veneering of precious alloys.

1.

Casting of non-precious alloys

+ Use only ceramic crucibles.

+ Use only virgin material.

+ Recommended non-precious alloys: e.g. Duceralloy C or Duceralloy soft.

2.

Framework preparation

+ The framework must be free of any sharp edges.

+ Sandblast the frameworks using

250-µm aluminium oxide at 3–4 bar.

+ Oxidizing is not generally required.

3a.

NE-Bonder (powder)

+ Wet the surface evenly using a glass instrument, avoiding striping.

+ Apply a thin but covering bonder layer of Ducera Liquid B or Ducera

Liquid OCL universal. Oxides will not be able to penetrate the layer.

+ Heat the bonder at a rate of

55°C/min to the final temperature of 980°C.

Veneering ceramics

3b.

NE-Bonder (paste)

+ Apply a thin covering layer of the paste opaque with a paste opaque brush.

The thin covering layer results in an uninterrupted surface.

If the bonder is not applied correctly, the framework will shine through.

WRONG!

Apply a thin but covering layer of the paste bonder with a paste opaque brush.

If the object is correctly fired, the bonder will present a homogeneous semi-matte surface.

There should be no non-wetted surfaces left.

4.

Opaque firing

+ The opaque gives the crown its basic shade and matches the appropriate V-Classic shade. Perform the opaque firing at 950°C. The surface will be homogenous and well vitrified.

5.

Dentine firings

+ Observe the separate firing recommendations.

+ The firing temperature must be adjusted to the number of units fired. Five to nine units require an increase by 5°C to 10°C; ten or more units require an increase by

10°C to 20°C.

6.

Preventing discolouration when working with nonprecious alloys

+ To prevent discolouration by oxidizing non-precious alloys, steam-clean and rinse after each firing or (optionally) sandblast.

Shade wheel and dosing aid

Keep it simple and safe

This is the motto that guided the development of the Kiss shade wheel. It lets you assign the respective Kiss ceramic materials, quickly and simply, by analogy with the V shades. Setting the corresponding V shade will automatically show all other shade assignments.

The Kiss portioner is the practical implementation of the colour wheel, designed for easy realization of 1 : 1 mixtures for custom build-ups. Using the portioner allows absolute reproducibility when mixing two materials.

Additional notes

General firing instructions

• Note the required long-term cooling/tempering process for alloys with a CTE from 14.5 µm/m · K (25–600°C).

• Different ceramic furnaces may perform completely differently. The actual firing temperatures may have to be adjusted accordingly.

• Note that the furnace should be regularly tested by using a silver wire test or by producing a firing sample.

Note the following procedure for pre-drying tried-in objects made of Duceram Kiss hydrothermal ceramic material:

Heat objects to about 80°C to 90°C and allow to pre-dry for 30 minutes, or 1 to 1.5 hours for larger objects, until the moisture and organic residue accrued during try-in have dried.

Depending on the degree of contamination, steam down or sandblast the object lightly with 50-µm aluminium oxide to remove any organic residue.

Heat the restoration to 450°C at a rate of 5°C to 10°C per minute and hold for another hour.

Once pre-heating has occurred, proceed with the normal ceramic firing.

Notes for ceramic shoulders

• When creating a ceramic margin, use a carbide bur to reduce the crown margin so it ends 0,5 to 0,8 mm above the lowest part of the chamfer or ledge. Also, make sure that the crown margin tapers off softly to avoid tension within the ceramic material.

• Air-abrade the internal surfaces (especially the margins) and the external surfaces of the framework coping as described above, then clean the framework using the steam cleaner.

• Mark the preparation margin using a graphite-free pencil and seal it as usual, e.g. using an acrylic adhesive.

• Apply Ducera-Sep isolation liquid. Allow the isolation liquid to air-dry and then apply a second layer.

• Before applying the ceramic material, the isolation must be dry.

• Mix the shoulder material (SM 1–5) with SD Quick modelling liquid.

Use the shoulder material to rebuild the cut-back crown margin.

Apply the shoulder material to the coping in the cervical quarter.

Allow the ceramic margins to dry, using a heat source of heat if preferred, and fire as per the firing recommendations.

• The gap resulting from ceramic shrinkage can be filled in by a second firing or by the final margin material (F SM 1–5) after glaze firing.

Safe veneering with Duceram® Kiss

Guide for non-precious alloys

(When working with Compartis CoCr frameworks, make sure to consult the most recent

Compartis instructions for use.)

Since non-precious alloys and precious alloys react differently to ceramic firing, the following parameters should be observed for the safe veneering of non-precious alloys.

+ Use only cross-cut tungsten-carbide cutters to finish the framework.

+ During finishing, make sure the framework is free of sharp edges. Sandblast the framework using 250-μm aluminium oxide at a pressure of 3–4 bar.

+ Oxidizing is not generally required.

+ Steam down and rinse after each firing. Sandblast if appropriate.

Make sure to follow the special firing parameters during veneering:

+ The NE-Bonder is mixed with Ducera® Liquid B or OCL universal. Then, the NE-Bonder (paste or powder) is applied to the framework as a thin but uniform covering layer. The

NE-Bonder is fired at 980°C, which ensures that it is sintered to the framework in a homogeneous fashion and the subsequent vitrification is performed in a uniform manner. This in turn ensures that the non-precious alloy bonds securely to the ceramic veneer.

For non-precious alloys with CTE less than or equal to 14.2 µm/m · K (25–600°C), no tempering may take place. Stress relief cooling down to base temperature should be performed independent of the CTE value. Please also follow the alloy manufacturers’ recommendations. To compensate for the low thermal conductivity of non-precious alloys, it is recommended to increase the firing temperature or to extend the firing time for the first dentine firing for all bridges of five units or more.

The firing temperature must be adapted to the number of units fired in the same cycle. Five to ten units require an increase by 5 °C to 10 °C; more than ten units require an increase by 10 °C to 20 °C.

The values listed here are intended for orientation only and should be regarded only as guidelines. Actual firing results may vary. All firing results depend on the performance of the furnace used, which in turn depends on the make, model and age of the furnace. The guideline values therefore need to be adapted individually for each firing. We recommend a test firing cycle to check the performance of the furnace. We have compiled and checked all values and other data with great care. However, we cannot be liable for your results under any circumstances.

The firing temperature must be adapted to the number of units fired in the same cycle. Five to ten units require an increase by 5 °C to 10 °C; more than ten units require an increase by 10 °C to 20 °C.

The values listed here are intended for orientation only and should be regarded only as guidelines. Actual firing results may vary. All firing results depend on the performance of the furnace used, which in turn depends on the make, model and age of the furnace. The guideline values therefore need to be adapted individually for each firing. We recommend a test firing cycle to check the performance of the furnace. We have compiled and checked all values and other data with great care. However, we cannot be liable for your results under any circumstances.

The firing temperature must be adapted to the number of units fired in the same cycle. Five to ten units require an increase by 5 °C to 10 °C; more than ten units require an increase by 10 °C to 20 °C.

The values listed here are intended for orientation only and should be regarded only as guidelines. Actual firing results may vary. All firing results depend on the performance of the furnace used, which in turn depends on the make, model and age of the furnace. The guideline values therefore need to be adapted individually for each firing. We recommend a test firing cycle to check the performance of the furnace. We have compiled and checked all values and other data with great care. However, we cannot be liable for your results under any circumstances.

The firing temperature must be adapted to the number of units fired in the same cycle. Five to ten units require an increase by 5 °C to 10 °C; more than ten units require an increase by 10 °C to 20 °C.

The values listed here are intended for orientation only and should be regarded only as guidelines. Actual firing results may vary. All firing results depend on the performance of the furnace used, which in turn depends on the make, model and age of the furnace. The guideline values therefore need to be adapted individually for each firing. We recommend a test firing cycle to check the performance of the furnace. We have compiled and checked all values and other data with great care. However, we cannot be liable for your results under any circumstances.

Terminology

Abbreviations

Bleach

Significantly brighter and whiter than A1, to be used predominantly in patients with bleached natural teeth.

D

Dentine, matched to the appropriate tooth shade. Used for building ceramic restorations that emulate natural teeth. Includes organic pigments for a better shade distinction pigments; these burn out completely during firing.

Final Kiss

Add-on (correction) mass for additional firings after glaze firing.

Flu Inside

Fluorescent dentines (used e.g. as modifiers for dentine mamelons) are dentines characterized by pronounced fluorescence. They enhance the luminescence of the veneer. Short-wave invisible light is absorbed, long-wave visible light is emitted.

F SM

Shoulder mass for corrections that may become necessary after glaze firing.

GI

Gray Inside: A unique fluorescent dentine that can be used to compensate for high-value framework contours in the incisal region.

Gum

Gum-coloured ceramic material for gingival replication, e.g. for implant-supported superstructures.

OE

Opal effect for customizing the incisal third.

OS

Opalescent incisal for replicating the opalescent impression of natural enamel.

PC

Power Chroma for increasing and customizing the shade intensity.

PL

Paste liner, specifically adapted to the corresponding tooth shades. Low light transmission provides good opacity.

S

Incisal for building up the incisal area.

S BY

Opalescent multifunctional material for use by itself or for mixing.

SC

Smooth Chroma: to attenuate the framework’s chroma, which determines the shade, in pontic regions or over discoloured preparations.

SD

Modelling liquid for mixing dentines, modifiers, incisals and transparents.

SD-Shape

Modelling liquid, like SD, but increases the stability of the ceramic materials. Requires longer pre-drying.

SD Quick

Modelling liquid for mixing dentines, modifiers, incisals and transparents whenever faster drying is desired. The SD-Quick liquid also serves as a liquid for shoulder materials.

SM

Shoulder mass, for creating metal-free crown margins. Requires a bevelled shoulder or chamfered margin.

TC

Transpa Clear, for additional transparency on tooth surfaces.

TR

Transpa Red, for additional customization of reddish tooth shades.

WS

Whitish opalescent incisal materials for superficial tooth whitening.
