DLMS-Zirblocks is a partially sintered yttria (yttrium oxide) stabilized zirconia (zirconium oxide) powder that is capable of machining by modern methods. The material is designated as TZP (slightly stronger) or TZPA (slightly more translucent). The dentist prepares the tooth surfaces, sends a properly prepared impression of those surfaces to the dental laboratory where it is scanned and an inlay or onlay prepared by modern computerized lathe methods, sintered to full density, and returned to the dentist. The dentist then finally prepares the tooth surfaces involved and cements (lutes) the inlay or only in place with standard dental adhesives (luting) materials. The material is radio-opaque, for ready visualization.
