IPS Empress System

IPS Empress  is the material of choice when it comes to the fabrication of pressed, highly-esthetic single tooth restorations. In addition to the excellent strength values, the leucite glass-ceramic ingots are distinguished for their exceptional esthetics. The homogeneous material scatters light naturally and provides a balanced chameleon effect.

IPS Empress is an all-ceramic crown system that gives you exceptional esthetics plus strength. The utilization of bonded ceramic restorative materials is intended to reestablish function, shape, contour, color (hue, value and chroma), natural light transmission and strength of natural dentition. Individually colored tooth restorations can be reproduced in exact shape and shade. The result is an individually fabricated restoration with an excellent fit and all the characteristics of a natural tooth. Even when working in limited space, optimum aesthetic results can be obtained.

The Empress system produces crowns, inlays/onlays and veneers, providing one of the strongest all-ceramic restorations available. The restoration is modeled in wax and invested in a specially formulated investment. The system's furnace then allows the restoration to be pressed in leucite reinforced ceramic porcelain. After removal, the object is finished to the required aesthetic and anatomical specifications, using staining and layering techniques.

With IPS Empress Esthetic, you can use a ceramic which offers more than pure performance. In fact, it effectively combines accuracy of fit, efficiency and esthetics.
