Compatibility with open CAD/CAM systems
The 98 mm format enables integration into many open dental CAD/CAM systems, provided that the exact holder type used by your machine is verified.
The presence of a shoulder, the disc thickness and the milling protocol must always be checked before starting the milling cycle.
Laboratory tip before CoCr milling
Before starting milling, check the exact disc format, the selected thickness, the presence or absence of a shoulder and compatibility with your milling machine’s disc holder.
This verification helps avoid mounting errors and secures the milling of metal structures.
To preserve the tools, use burs suitable for cobalt-chromium and follow the parameters recommended for your machine.
Recommended instructions for cobalt-chromium milling
- Check compatibility between the disc, disc holder and dental milling machine.
- Install the disc according to the machine manufacturer’s protocol.
- Apply milling parameters adapted to CoCrMo cobalt-chromium.
- Separate the structures after milling, then proceed with deburring and adjustment.
- Carry out sandblasting, finishing, polishing or surface preparation according to the prosthetic indication.
- Check the surface condition and connection areas before ceramic veneering or final finishing.
Main indications in fixed prosthodontics
- Single metal or metal-ceramic crowns.
- Milled cobalt-chromium bridges.
- Frameworks intended for ceramic veneering.
- Telescopic components and frameworks.
- Restorations requiring rigidity and fitting accuracy.
Implant-supported structures and technical work
- Implant-supported superstructures.
- Bars and attachments.
- Structures to be polished or sandblasted.
- CAD/CAM work requiring a rigid metal base.

Preparation before ceramic veneering
For metal-ceramic restorations, the milled framework must be carefully prepared in order to obtain a clean, regular surface compatible with the veneering protocol.
Appropriate sandblasting, thorough cleaning and compliance with the recommendations of the ceramic system used are essential to secure the metal-ceramic bond.
Finishing CoCr structures
After milling, the connector points must be removed using instruments suitable for cobalt-chromium.
Finishing must preserve margins, connectors and fit, while achieving a surface condition consistent with the indication: polishing, sandblasting, ceramic veneering or prosthetic assembly.
Best practices for CoCr milling
- Check the disc thickness before nesting.
- Check the diameter and the presence or absence of a shoulder.
- Use burs suitable for CoCrMo.
- Follow the machine milling parameters.
- Avoid undersized connectors on bridges and bars.
- Clean the structure before finishing or ceramic veneering.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Mounting the wrong format: check 98.3 mm with shoulder or 99.5 mm without shoulder.
- Using worn burs: cobalt-chromium places high demands on tools.
- Neglecting the surface condition: irregular finishing can compromise the final result.
- Forgetting machine checks: parameters must remain adapted to the CoCrMo material.
