Introduced in 1999, by VITA as In-Ceram Zirconia, it provides superior strength to previous all-ceramic restorative materials. It was originally an aluminum oxide re-inforced with zirconium oxide particles.

Recently, densely sintered Zirconium Oxide YZ ceramic blocks have become available for CAD/CAM milling.
