What is it indicated for?

Radiance Porcelain is a sodium/potassium alumina silicate leucite glass ceramic porcelain system for the fabrication of dental restorations, crowns, bridges, veneers, inlays, and onlays, using either dental alloys or its pressable component, Press-I-Dent.

This porcelain system is a lower fusing porcelain than feldspar based porcelains and is manufactured from the fritting of manufactured glass compositions. In addition, it has lower opposing occlusal wear characteristics than feldspar based porcelains.

Radiance is intended for use by dental laboratories as an alternative to other porcelains.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
