IPS emax® is the most true-to-nature material available on the market, thanks to the perfect harmony between the opalescence, translucency and light diffusion properties of IPS e.max® lithium disilicate.
When fabricated to full-contour, the monolithic structure is the most robust ceramic system tested to date.
IPS e.max® can be used for monolithic single crowns, veneers, inlays and onlays or layered with e.max® Ceram for optimal esthetics.
