[QUOTE="KIM, post: 190878, member: 3201"] Although Creation was well ahead of it's time when it was introduced in the early 1990's, yes it has evolved quite a bit since then :). As far as Zirconia layering options, Creation offers both the original "ZI-F" or for you up North, "Zed I-F" and a new zirconia ceramic called "ZI-CT" which is being very well received in the markets worldwide. The "CT" stands for Crystal Type which points to a very homogeneous crystalline structure, providing greater reliability and esthetics. If you were to shear a typical zirconia layering ceramic , you typically would see a pretty clean break between the two surfaces (Which some attribute to making them more "Chippy"),but with ZI-CT you see more of a jagged break between the two surfaces; more in line like what you'd see with a traditional PFM ceramic. ZI-CT has a firing temperature of 910c. Jensen sells both ZI-F and ZI-CT in North America so feel free to contact your Jensen Sales Rep if you're interested in learning more. [/QUOTE]
