Subsequent adjustments
After completion, additional adjustments (e.g. contact points) may become necessary. For that purpose,
IPS Empress Add-On 770 °C / 1418 °F is available.
Procedure:
– Before the adjustment, clean the restoration thoroughly from dirt and grease using a steam jet.
– Mix IPS Empress Add-On 770 °C / 1418 °F with IPS Empress Esthetic Veneer Build-Up Liquid to a workable consistency.
Make sure that the add-on material and liquid are evenly mixed so that an optimum firing result can be achieved.
– Apply the mixed add-on material on the cleaned, desired areas using a brush and slightly blot them with an absorbent
cloth.
– Position the adjusted restoration on the firing tray and fire it in the ceramic furnace.
– After firing, manually polish the supplemented areas to a high gloss.
