5. Why IPS e.max Inspires Lasting Confidence a. Scientifically founded structure Every component of the e.max system has been extensively studied — from its crystalline structure and chemical reactions to its bonding behavior with resin cements. This ensures not only superior esthetics but also long-term mechanical stability. b. Versatility across indications From veneers, inlays, and

In dentistry, troubleshooting and risk prevention have always gone hand in hand. Every dental technician and clinician has faced those uncomfortable moments of self-questioning: Why did this restoration crack? Why did the patient return after only a few months? Was it the material, the technique, or the design? Such reflections are completely normal — they

In modern dental restorations, zirconia has become one of the most popular materials thanks to its exceptional combination of mechanical strength, biocompatibility, and high aesthetic value. However, among the wide range of zirconia materials available today, determining which type is best suited for each clinical indication remains a key consideration for both laboratories and clinicians.

In the modern world of dental technology, selecting the right equipment—from traditional analog tools to cutting-edge digital systems—plays a decisive role in achieving efficiency, precision, and the highest quality of restorations. A well-organized laboratory not only optimizes workflow but also enhances the working experience and productivity of every dental technician. Traditional methods – the solid

Evidence-backed all-ceramics – delivering durable, efficient and esthetic restorations. All-ceramic restorations have long become standard practice. Patients expect esthetically pleasing, long-lasting restorations. This means selecting the right material is essential, as it affects not only treatment outcomes and patient satisfaction, but also enhances efficiency and cost effectiveness. Long-term studies show survival rates above 95% –

In modern dentistry, a “restoration” is far more than just a replacement for a missing tooth. It is the art of recreating life—replicating the form, function, and beauty of a natural tooth in perfect harmony with the patient’s smile, facial features, and individuality. Thanks to today’s advancements in ceramic materials and fabrication techniques, both dental

The IPS e.max Press technique has been validated in thousands of clinical cases worldwide. It enables precise replication of the wax-up design into ceramic, achieving exceptional fit, durability, and esthetics. The Step-by-Step Method for Crafting Natural Restorations Step 1. Wax-up – Designing the Tooth Anatomy This step lays the foundation for success. Rather than selecting

Let’s talk about resources Up to 85 per cent of the material is lost in the milling process. By contrast, 3D printing only uses the material that is actually needed – to build the workpiece itself and the support structure required for the building process. The light-curing resins are applied layer by layer and cured

Expertise meets technique Digitalization has been impacting on dental laboratories for some years now. Alongside subtractive manufacturing such as milling, additive processes, or 3D printing, have found their way into the laboratory. In spite of these developments, specialist knowledge and detailed planning continue to be key requirements for achieving accurately fitting high-quality restorations. Still, the
