Ceramic dental material LUMEX® AC

zirconiaZrO2titanium

Overview
VITA LUMEX® AC is a leucite-reinforced glass-ceramic veneering system designed for precise, layerable veneering on common dental substructures. The material supports shade-accurate, reproducible restorations for laboratory and clinical workflows.

Product description
Leucite-reinforced glass-ceramic powders and modifiers formulated for reliable shade matching (VITA shade systems) and optimized modelling properties, offering high firing stability and dimensional shape stability.

Key benefits

• Versatility: suitable for a wide range of indications and layering techniques.
• Shade accuracy: formulated for consistent reproduction with VITA shade-match references.
• Process efficiency: stable firing behaviour and proven durability for predictable workflows.

Note
Availability and regulatory approvals vary by market; some items may not be available in all regions.

Indications

• Full and partial veneering of zirconia substructures
• Full and partial veneering of lithium disilicate (glass-ceramic)
• Full and partial veneering of titanium (recommended grades)
• Partial veneering of feldspathic ceramic
• Monolithic reconstruction without a substructure

Compatible materials and thermal expansion ranges

• Zirconia substructures (CTE approx. 10.0–10.5 x 10-6 K-1)
• Glass-ceramic substructures (CTE approx. 9.0–10.5 x 10-6 K-1)
• Titanium substructures (CTE approx. 9.0–10.5 x 10-6 K-1)
