Harvest Nano Zirconia Sintering in Ivoclar S2 Sintering Oven Subtitle: Best Practices for Strength and Crack Inhibition When Sintering

A Common Issue

If you've sintered a full-arch Harvest Nano Zirconia restoration in an Ivoclar S2 oven and had it come out cracked, the most common reason is this: the tray and cooling combination — and it's fixable.

We ran a controlled internal study to identify exactly why some full-arch cases crack in the S2 oven while others sinter cleanly under seemingly identical conditions.

The answer is simple: Your sintering tray design & your cooling cycle are critical for crack inhibition.
