[QUOTE="AaronW12321, post: 350675, member: 25521"] We use Origin brand Zirc, which I think is closer to the 1100-1250mpa range, with a .33mm min thickness. I know katana has a strong ging base but is super weak incisally. I would aim for milling 6+ unit bridges in something stronger, as long as you think your designs aren't of concern. We don't see breaks too often, and when we do it's almost always due to the constraints of the case. We don't use connectors, just manually add/smooth between pontic/abt teeth in the final step. It's worth stating that the size of the connection matters much more in the vertical direction than the horizontal direction. Tall connections are better than wide connections. Hope this helps a bit [/QUOTE]
