Aidite HonorZir SHT Pre-Shaded Zirconia is engineered for dental labs that demand high strength, color accuracy, and workflow efficiency in a single material. Designed for everyday restorations that require both function and esthetics, this zirconia simplifies the shading process by integrating true-to-life color gradients directly into the blank. It is supplied as precision-controlled zirconia blocks, zirconia blanks, and zirconia dental blanks, supporting predictable outcomes across modern dental zirconia workflows using certified dental lab materials.
Whether you’re fabricating anterior crowns or posterior bridges, HonorZir SHT delivers stable mechanical performance with a shade consistency that minimizes post-sinter adjustments. It’s a good mix of strength and appearance—strong enough for heavy biting forces while maintaining a natural look expected from high-quality zirconium dental restorations.
Advanced Pre-Shaded Technology for Consistent Color
Unlike traditional white zirconia blocks dental workflows that require manual infiltration or external coloring, Aidite HonorZir SHT Pre-Shaded comes with factory-integrated shades designed to match the VITA shade system. This built-in coloration ensures predictable results, reduces technician variability, and saves valuable production time. This advantage is especially valuable in zirconia blocks dental workflows focused on speed and repeatability.
Each disc features a soft chroma gradient that transitions from dentin to incisal tones, giving restorations a natural light diffusion and smooth color blend. These restorations are commonly milled from dental zirconia discs and zirconia disc formats used in open CAD/CAM systems.
Key Advantages
- Pre-shaded zirconia multilayer structure for faster, consistent color results
- Excellent color matching to natural dentition
- High strength suitable for both anterior and posterior restorations
- Reduced need for external stains or infiltration liquids
- Stable shade uniformity across multiple restorations
- Efficient production for high-volume labs
When paired with Aidite Biomic Glaze/Stain, technicians can add surface texture and vitality, enhancing incisal translucency and achieving enamel-like realism—particularly effective on zirconia multilayer designs fabricated from dental zirconia.
Professional Features & Technical Highlights
Aidite HonorZir SHT Pre-Shaded is part of the advanced HonorZir line, known for combining precision milling characteristics with superior optical control. Milled from a dense zirconium block, the material maintains edge integrity and shade stability throughout processing, making it a reliable zirconia dental material for daily production.
Key professional features:
- Optimized for full-contour crowns, bridges, and frameworks
- High bending strength to withstand functional load cases
- Excellent sintering stability—minimal warping or deformation
- Smooth milling behavior with clean edge detailing
- Consistent shading through the full sintering process
- Compatible with all open CAD/CAM systems and furnaces
- Ideal for natural-looking posterior and anterior restorations
Technicians appreciate how quickly the discs can be processed without sacrificing precision or esthetic integrity. The pre-shaded layers make it especially useful for multi-unit cases requiring color uniformity between restorations produced from dental zirconia discs and zirconia blanks.
Performance Across Applications
Aidite HonorZir SHT Pre-Shaded Zirconia is highly versatile, meeting the functional demands of both posterior restorations and esthetic anterior work while helping labs manage zirconia blocks price effectively.
Recommended applications:
- Full-contour crowns and bridges
- Long-span posterior frameworks
- Monolithic anterior units
- Implant-supported restorations
- Veneer substructures requiring color stability
The combination of high flexural strength and built-in shading allows labs to streamline workflows while maintaining quality. For anterior units requiring extra translucency, HonorZir can be paired with Aidite Aizir Zirconia, while Aidite 3D Pro Zir complements the line for gradient multilayer cases using advanced dental lab materials.
Optimized Workflow for CAD/CAM Production
HonorZir SHT discs are compatible with all open milling systems and sintering ovens. Their consistent material density ensures accurate nesting, smooth milling, and clean margins, resulting in reduced tool wear. This supports mixed workflows that include both zirconia blank and PMMA stages without compromising fit accuracy or shade consistency.
Processing highlights:
- Supports high-speed sintering cycles without discoloration
- Maintains edge strength during fine detail milling
- Excellent dimensional accuracy and fit after sintering
- Compatible with popular glazing systems and polishing kits
For premium surface enhancement, use Aidite Biomic Glaze/Stain—its compatibility with the SHT series allows technicians to fine-tune translucency, hue, and luster to achieve custom esthetic effects while helping control overall zirconia blocks price by reducing remakes.
