Depending on the desired processing technique and materials, the way to complete the ceramic structure is selected.
Basically, two ways to complete the ceramic structure can be distinguished.
• Polishing technique
Polishing of the "blue" restoration, followed by crystallization without individual characterization and glaze.
• Staining technique on the "blue" restoration
Characterization and glaze with IPS e.max CAD Crystall./ materials on the blue restoration, followed by
Combination firing (Crystallization and Characterization/Glaze firing in one step).
• Staining technique on the tooth-coloured restoration
Crystallization without the application of materials. Characterization/Glaze firing of the tooth-coloured restorations
with either IPS e.max CAD Crystall./ or IPS e.max Ceram materials.
