Uses
Indications
− Crowns
− Splinted crowns
− 3- to 4-unit bridges
− Implant superstructure crown
− Implant superstructure splinted crown
− Implant superstructure 3- to 4-unit bridges
Contraindications
− Restorations with more than two connected bridge pontics
− Two bridge pontics as extension units
− Very deep sub-gingival preparations
− Patients with severely reduced residual dentition
− Patients suffering from bruxism
− Any other use not listed in the indications.
− Use of IPS e.max Ceram layering materials (layering technique,
cut-back technique)
− Use of IPS e.max Ceram Glaze, Shades, Essences (staining technique)
Important
note:
The fabrication of IPS e.max CAD HT bridges
which are not supported by a zirconium oxide
structure is contraindicated.
Important processing restrictions
Failure to observe the following restrictions may result in failure and
defective restorations:
− Milling of IPS e.max CAD and IPS e.max ZirCAD with non-
compatible CAD/CAM systems.
− Failure to observe the necessary minimum connector and restoration
thicknesses
− Sintering of IPS e.max ZirCAD in a non-compatible high-temperature
furnace
− Conducting the Fusion/Crystallization firing or the
Characterization/Glaze firing in a ceramic furnace which has not
been approved and which is not recommended
− Conducting the Fusion/Crystallization firing or the
Characterization/Glaze firing with deviating parameters
− Conducting the Fusion/Crystallization firing or the
Characterization/Glaze firing in a non-calibrated ceramic furnace
− Conducting the Fusion/Crystallization firing or the
Characterization/Glaze firing in a high-temperatur furnace (e.g.
Programat S1)
− Mixing of IPS e.max CAD Crystall./Glaze, Shades and Stains with
other ceramic materials (e.g. IPS e.max Ceram Glaze, Stains and
Essences).
− Wetting or rewetting the IPS e.max CAD Crystall./Connect (fusion
glass-ceramic)
− Mixing of IPS e.max CAD Crystall./Connect with other ceramic
materials in general
− Using a vibrator other than Ivomix
Side effects
If patients are known to be allergic to any of the components in the
materials, IPS e.max restorations should not be used.
