Optimum integration in the oral cavity of the patient is the prerequisite for a true-to-nature all-ceramic
restoration. To achieve this, the following guidelines and notes must be observed by both the dentist and
the laboratory.
With IPS e.max Press Abutment Solutions, you can imitate not only the clinical crown of a natural tooth,
but also a part of the "root". By defining/determining the "root shade" you can adjust the shade of the
IPS e.max Press Abutment Solution restoration accordingly. This allows you to achieve a highly esthetic
implant-supported restoration which retains its lifelike appearance also in the case of gingiva recession.
