DiamondCrown is a unique biomimetic
micro-crystalline PEX based system,
unlike BisGMA and UDMA systems,
which are amorphous in structure
and inherently brittle. The crystalline
structure of all Diamond products offers
properties similar to tooth such as macro-
toughness and micro-elasticity with wear
rate similar to natural tooth. Diamond-
Crown differs from DiamondLite in that;
DiamondCrown has a higher molecular
weight of the PEX resin with a denser
crystalline structure, which results
in even more favourable physical
and mechanical properties. This
requires a higher degree of manu-
facturing of the resin base and results
in a material that can be used for
direct fillings and indirect restorations,
crowns, onlays bridges and
implant supra structure. Diamond-
Lite is for direct anterior and posterior rest
orations.
