Ivoclar Vivadent IPS e.max Ceram Selection Kit

IPS e.max Ceram Selection Kit — low-fusing nano-fluorapatite glass-ceramic

Low-fusing nano-fluorapatite glass-ceramic for characterizing and veneering restorations made by press and/or CAD/CAM. Firing temperature about 730 °C and CTE 9.5 × 10⁻⁶ K⁻¹ (100–400 °C); compatible with lithium disilicate glass-ceramics and ZrO₂.

Advantages

• Layering ceramic for lithium disilicate and ZrO₂
• Full shade match — clinical behavior consistent independent of framework material
• Nano-fluorapatite technology for superior aesthetics
• High light transmission and fluorescence at the same time

Indications

• Characterization and veneering of IPS e.max Press, IPS e.max ZirPress, IPS e.max CAD and IPS ZirCAD restorations
• ZrO₂ frameworks with CTE 10.5–11.0 × 10⁻⁶ K⁻¹ (25–500 °C)
• Layered veneers on fireproof materials
• Gingival design on IPS e.max ZirCAD and IPS e.max ZirPress restorations
