Add-On firing

There are 3 IPS e.max Ceram Add-On materials available for adjustments. Depending on the individual application, the

materials are processed differently.

Option 1 – Add-On with Glaze firing

This method is used if minor adjustments are made together with the Glaze firing. If you use this method, proceed

as follows:

– If IPS e.max Ceram Glaze Spray is used for glazing, spray it once the Add-On

materials have been applied.

– If necessary, optimize the accuracy of fit of the shoulder using IPS e.max Ceram

Add-On Margin (alone).

– Mix IPS e.max Ceram Add-On Dentin and Incisal in a 1:1 ratio and then mix it with

Dentin and Transparent Incisal material. Apply the mixture on the corresponding

areas and fire.

– Polish the adjusted areas to a high gloss after firing.

Firing parameters for Add-On with Glaze firing – note the slow cooling!

Firing parameters for Add-On after Glaze firing – note the slow cooling!

Option 2 – Add-On after Glaze firing

Additional corrections may be required once the restoration has been completed and tried in with the patient (e.g. pontic

rest, contact points). In such cases, proceed as follows:

– Apply IPS e.max Ceram Add-On Dentin and Incisal (alone) to the corresponding

areas and fire.

– Polish the adjusted areas to a high gloss after firing.
