Leucite glass-ceramics
IPS Empress® CAD restorations have been in clinical use for decades. It closely reproduces the natural tooth structure due to its distinct chameleon effect and lifelike fluorescence[1].
IPS Empress CAD is known for exceptional aesthetics and can be polished to a high gloss quickly and easily: grind - polish - done.
The innovative polychromatic IPS Empress CAD Multi block is a special highlight in this range. The block features a natural progression of shade and fluorescence from dentine to incisal[1].
