Since the introduction of Ivoclar Vivadent’s IPS e.max in 2005, dentists and dental technicians worldwide have relied on this highly resistant and highly aesthetic lithium disilicate glass ceramic material, and 12 years of consistent quality tests prove that it has an average biaxial flexural strength of 500 MPa. According to the clinical data, it is possible to reduce the required material thickness for IPS e.max lithium disilicate crowns; only one mm is sufficient when the crowns are adhesively cemented. Additionally, minimally invasive occlusal veneers can now be produced with IPS e.max CAD. This means conservative dentistry is supported. Since IPS e.max’s introduction, it’s been utilized in more than 100 million restorations, with a survival rate of more than 96%. For more information, call (800) 533-6825.
