Stain and Glaze firing
Stain firing is conducted with IPS e.max Ceram Essence and IPS e.max Ceram Shades, while Glaze firing is carried out with
IPS e.max Ceram Glaze powder or paste. Depending on the situation, the Stain and Glaze firings may be conducted
together or separately one after the other. The firing parameters are identical.
In order to achieve an even gloss during Glaze firing of cut-back restorations veneered with IPS e.max Ceram, two
different procedures are possible:
Standard
(high-gloss appearance)
– Prepolish unlayered areas (IPS e.max CAD) using rubber
wheels.
– Rub the surface with moist ceramic (layering material) in
order to improve the wetting properties of the surface.
– Clean the restoration with steam.
– Apply IPS e.max Ceram Glaze on the entire restoration.
Option
(true-to-nature appearance)
– Prepolish unlayered areas (IPS e.max CAD) using rubber
wheels.
– Rub the surface with moist ceramic (layering material) in
order to improve the wetting properties of the surface.
– Clean the restoration with steam.
– Use Self-Glaze for veneered areas.
– Apply IPS e.max Ceram Glaze only on unlayered areas
(IPS e.max CAD LT).
– Subsequently, adjust the level of gloss by manually
polishing the restoration.
