[QUOTE="k2 Ceramic Studio, post: 55104, member: 1067"] Hi guys nice thred, and nice to see more and more people using Ti, we have been milling it for over 6 years now using GC Initial and have had great results, our remake % is less than our pfm crowns, in fact I cant remember the last time one did fail. You do not need to use argon in your furnace at all as the top temp is 820'c so the oxide is stable and does not change so no argon is required. 15 to 30 min sound a long time to me for bench resting as we try to stick to the recommended 5min but not sure if that is because you guys are using grade 5, I was told that even though that stuff is stronger it also has a darker oxide than the grade 2 pure Ti that we use, is that true? What made you go for grade 5? Have done a number of large bridges with no problems at all and mill a couple of all on 4 implant bars every day. This stuff is great and still not sure why so many people are hesitant to use it, any way have fun. [/QUOTE]
