Callisto CPG is cobalt-chromium-base ceramic alloy with palladium content. The low density makes this alloy especially economical and the fixed price keeps the costs consistent.
Indications*
- Onlays, ¾ crowns, crowns
- Telescope crowns, conus crowns
- Bridges
- Wide-span bridges
- Cast posts / cores, bars, attachments
- Implant-supported superstructures
- Partial dentures
