Matching the shade when using different framework materials is clearly facilitated by the universal layering diagram and the precise shade coordination. After all, the veneering ceramic is the key to highly esthetic results within the IPS e.max System – both on lithium disilicate (LS2) and zirconium ox- ide (ZrO2) – particularly for the ad- aptation to the natural model. The unique combination of translucen- cy, brightness, and opalescence leads to natural light scattering and a bal- anced relationship between bright- nessandchroma.(Fig.2) At the beginning of the all-ceramic era, both lithium disilicate and zir- conium oxide were only available with medium or high opacity. These opaquer framework structures re- flect a lot of light, which increases the brightness of the fabricated res- toration.TheconventionalIPSe.max Ceram Dentin and Incisal (Fig. 3) ma- terials are exactly adjusted to this ef- fect and are thus optimally suitable foruseonopaquesubstructures.The balanced relation between bright- ness and chroma results in the ex- act match with the respective shade guide.(Fig.2) FrequentlyAskedQuestions Why POWER dentin & Incisal initially developed? Mainly because of two factors that raisedoverthepastfewyears;(Fig.4) 1st- The continuous development of more translucent all-ceramic frame- workmaterials. 2nd- the general trend of patients’ desire of brighter restorations in the overall.
