Device Story

XeraFit is a base metal alloy used for the fabrication of porcelain-to-metal dental restorations. The device is intended for use by dental professionals in a laboratory or clinical setting to create prosthetic dental appliances. It serves as the metallic substructure onto which dental porcelain is fused to restore tooth structure, function, and aesthetics. The device is provided to dental technicians or dentists who process the alloy to form the desired restoration shape, followed by the application and firing of porcelain. The final restoration is then placed in the patient's mouth to replace missing or damaged tooth structure, providing structural support and a natural appearance.
