These ingots are glass-ceramic in two levels of opacity, with a high strength of 400 MPa. The ingot with opacity (HO) are suitable on nonvital cores or for masking metal post and cores. IPS e.max Press frameworks are individually veneered with IPS e-max Ceram glass-ceramic, which is ideally coordinated with the system.
Indications
- Anterior and posterior crowns
- 3-unit anterior bridges
- 3-unit bridges up to the second premolar as the abutment tooth
- Press-over electroplated single crowns
- Implant superstructures for single restorations (anterior and posterior region)
- Implant superstructures for 3-unit bridge restorations up to the second premolar as the abutment tooth
- Primary telescope crowns
Cementation
IPS e.max Press restorations may be either adhesively or conventionally cemented. For conventional cementation, however, an appropriately retentive preparation design must be observed. If this is not possible, adhesive cementation, e.g. with Variolink® II and Multilink® should be used. Vivaglass CEM is available for conventional cementation. We advise against the use of traditional phosphate cements, since they negatively influence the light transmission through the all-ceramic and compromise the aesthetic appearance of the all-ceramic restorations.
IPS e.max Ceram
This is a layering ceramic that is compatible with all of the IPS e.max substructure materials. We are able to create an evenly matched smile design when different substructures are used.
