Harmony® KF

Au (75.1%)-based dental casting alloy, Type 4

Harmony KF is a high gold casting alloy with a distinct yellow colour. The copper-free composition prevents discolouration on the inner surfaces of the double crowns and bars whilst in situ.

Indications*

  • Telescope crowns, conus crowns
  • Bridges
  • Wide-span bridges
  • Cast posts / cores, bars, attachments
  •  Implant-supported superstructures
  • Partial dentures
