L’oxyde de zirconium à haute résistance IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime est polyvalent dans ses applications, en plus d’offrir un niveau de qualité supérieur et une esthétique haut de gamme. La gamme de produits Prime comprend IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime et IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime Esthetic.
IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime is the One-Disc Solution and therefore the all-round genius within the portfolio. The high-strength zirconium oxide material (1200 MPa[4]) is characterized by high accuracy of fit and exceptional quality.
The fascinating all-ceramic ingeniously combines esthetics with flexibility, and is suitable for versatile applications and fabrication techniques. Regardless of the type of restoration needed, whether it be an efficiently fabricated monolithic posterior crown, a stable bridge, an implant-supported restoration or a highly esthetic and elaborately customized single anterior tooth.

Crown copings
Bridge frameworks composed of 3 or more units with max. 2 pontics
MDT Vincent Fehmer (Switzerland) talks about the differences between conventional multi-layer zirconia and IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime. He mentions the smooth progression of shade and translucency within the disc in particular.
Do you fashion the majority of your crowns with zirconium oxide? Do you have exacting expectations of the materials you use and the restorations you create? Are you constantly on the look-out for new and effortless ways to achieve impressive lifelike restorations[1]? If that is the case, we invite you to discover the new IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime Esthetic!
It takes only a few steps to produce esthetic monolithic restorations. Additional staining or a cut-back is unnecessary in most cases. Simple polishing or glazing is adequate for achieving an accurate match with the A-D shade guide. Efficiency and a low susceptibility to error are decisive benefits of the product.
Straightforward polishing with OptraGloss or glazing with the fluorescent IPS Ivocolor glazing paste
Reliable and reproducible process
Minimal manual effort, yet impressive natural-looking[1] results
For crowns and 3-unit bridges
For restorations of a consistently high level of esthetic quality
Blend of the two zirconium oxide raw materials 4Y-TZP and 5Y-TZP without any layers

IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime Esthetic: high-strength 4Y-TZP zirconium oxide featuring 850 MPa[5] flexural strength
IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime: high-strength 3Y-TZP zirconium oxide featuring 1200 MPa[4] flexural strength
Hight of the dentin zone varies depending on the disc thickness
The unique GT Technology is at the heart of IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime and IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime Esthetic. Innovative processing technology is used to manufacture the disc using a combination of two zirconium oxide raw materials (3Y-TZP or 4Y-TZP with 5Y-TZP) to produce the striking properties of the IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime material.
All IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime discs – irrespecitve of their thickness – have an incisal zone of 3 mm. It is composed of an ultra-translucent 5Y-TZP zirconium oxide material. The layer-free transition zone, which is significantly responsible for the highly esthetic appearance of the material, is produced as a result of the GT Technology and it is 4 mm thick.
The thickness of the dentin zone, which is composed of 4Y-TZP (IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime Esthetic) or 5Y-TZP zirconium oxide (IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime), varies depending on the thickness of the various discs. It ranges from 7 mm in the 14-mm disc up to 18 mm in the 25-mm disc.
L’aspect esthétique de première classe d’IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime se caractérise par une progression continue et sans faille de la teinte et de la translucidité, ainsi que par des propriétés de translucidité optimisées, qui ne peuvent être obtenues que grâce à l’utilisation de la technologie Gradient (TG).

Découvrez ce que nos clients disent d’IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime et la raison pour laquelle ils choisissent le produit e.max.
DMD, FACD
“e.max Prime has become my number one choice for strength and beauty. We finally have an esthetic zirconia that is strong enough for splints and bridges and translucent enough to be comfortably used in anterior cases. It‘s gradient technology creates Y3 strength where it is needed as well as Y5 translucency, to create a functional, beautiful restorative. It is truly worthy of the name e.max!“
FAACD
“Our laboratory focuses on full mouth reconstruction and cosmetic dentistry. The material choice for us is e.max. The reason we love e.max is very simple. It is beautiful and it is very strong. We want to deliver a product to our clients that is going to be very durable and it’s going to be beautiful. e.max definitely covers those two criteria. It’s also easy to work in the lab. It’s easy to layer, easy to contour. We do a lot in the purple stage before we sinter and it’s easy and when we are done we know that we are delivering a quality product that is strong and it’s beautiful. Our doctors trust that we are going to deliver a high-end quality product. We trust Ivoclar with e.max because they simply deliver all the time. Thank you."

“I started using IPS e.max Prime two years ago, when my Lab recommended the material for a full arch case. I was thoroughly impressed with the results that can be achieved with Prime because it provides the best of both worlds: unparalleled esthetics and maximum strength.“
DDS
"I recommend e.max Prime because when you see the restoration, it blends right with the patient's natural dentition. It made my life easier and my patients love it."
