Metal-ceramics are a constant companion in many dental labs.
They are used as a matter of course, and the results achieved with them are predictable. Their clinical reliability is proven. Their contribution to the success of the dental lab is quite considerable.
Ivoclar Vivadent continues to build on its forty years of experience in developing metal-ceramic systems: IPS Style.
The patented metal-ceramic material IPS Style offers dental labs maximum efficiency, easy handling and lifelike esthetics*. This is the first material in the history of dental ceramics to contain oxyapatite crystals. These crystals reflect a high amount of incident light and therefore give restorations a natural-looking depth.
What is special about IPS Style®?
IPS Style® is the first patented metal-ceramic material to contain oxyapatite crystals. These crystals in combination with the well-known leucite and fluorapatite crystals and the matching glass phases impart this low-fusing mixed-glass ceramic with unique handling and optical properties.
IPS Style is not only easy and efficient to use, but it is also highly esthetic: The ceramic, designed for the classical CTE range, is coordinated with the components of the versatile IPS Ivocolor staining and glazing assortment.
Needle-shaped oxyapatite
Selective control of translucency and opacity (10,000-fold magnification)
Crystalline leucite
Controlled expansion and strength (8,200-fold magnification)
Fine needle-like fluorapatite
Natural-looking basic brightness, vitality and vibrancy (10,000-fold magnification)
What does it mean?
Make it fast. IPS Style’s low shrinkage saves you time.
Make it easy. The material’s ease of use ensures reliable results.
Make it natural. The oxyapatite controls the translucency and depth effect.
Optimized shrinkage behaviour
The optimized shrinkage of IPS Style allows technicians to achieve the desired results quickly and efficiently. The restoration contours are virtually impeccable already after the first firing
Conventional PFM ceramics
IPS Style
Shrinkage behaviour of the ceramic and wetting properties of the opaquer – a comparison:
Under standardized test conditions* IPS Style® shows visibly better results after firing compared with a conventional PFM ceramic.
High edge strength
The sculpted shape, the finely created details as well as the morphology of the restoration remain unchanged during the firing process. This reduces the need for multiple firings and therefore saves valuable time.
