Stain and glaze firing using IPS Empress Universal Shade and Stains
Once the restoration has been cleaned, the stain and characterization firing is conducted. Observe the following working
procedure:
– Extrude IPS Empress Universal Shade or Stains from the syringe and mix thoroughly.
– Thin the material to the desired consistency using IPS Empress Universal Glaze and Stain Liquid.
– For better wetting of the stains, a small quantity of IPS Empress Universal Glaze and Stain Liquid may be slightly rubbed
into the surface.
– Apply the mixed Shade material directly unto the surface.
– Intensify the corresponding dentin shade in the cervical and central crown thirds using IPS Empress Universal Shades.
– Excessively thick or thin material layers should be prevented.
– More intensive shades are achieved by repeated staining, rather than by applying thicker layers.
– To imitate the incisal area and translucency in the incisal third, use IPS Empress Universal Shade Incisal.
– Design individualized affects and characterizations using the Stains material.
– Apply the Stains thinly and in a controlled manner using a brush.
