Welcome to The Tooth Studio

The IPS Empress family, also contains IPS Eris, a low-fusing fluorapatite glass-ceramic combines the life-like translucency, brightness and light-scattering capabilities of proven apatite crystal technology with the superior strength of a tried-and-tested pressed lithium disilicate substructure. And, the outstanding chemical compatibility of the dilithium silicate component of the IPS Eris layering ceramic to the lithium disilicate of the underlying framework offers proven, improved clinical performance. The result - beautifully aesthetic restorations combined with the high fracture resistance and flexural strength required for all-ceramic three unit bridges (2nd premolar as most distal abutment, single pontic) as well as single anterior and posterior crowns. learn more >>

Apatite crystals (a component of natural teeth) along with individualized characterization enhance the optical qualities of the restoration. Available in a full range of Chromascop and Vita 3-D shades supplemented by four ultra-light bleach shades, IPS Eris complements IPS Empress - still the perfect choice for beautiful inlays, onlays, veneers and anterior crowns.

IPS Eris pressed frameworks offer exceptional strength due to a lithium disilicate crystal content of more than 60% by volume. The frameworks provide higher flexural strength, chemical resistance and fracture resistance than leucite glass-ceramic.

IPS Eris employs normal preparation requirements for adequate retention and resistance form. The restorations can be cemented with conventional glass-ionomer cements.
