Cursus details

IPS e.max Press & Layering Zirconium Oxide

Description
Can be held at various training facilities in The Netherlands, the focus of this two day course is IPS e.max ZirPress and Ceram the nano fluorapatite glass ceramic, two of the main components of the IPS e.max system. With this in mind this course is devoted to layering and pressing techniques in conjunction with a pre milled IPS e.max Zirconium oxide frameworks.

Program
The initial section of programme covers the preparation of the milled framework. Participants will be shown how to characterise the frameworks in order to alter shading.

The training program will cover in detail ceramic selection and more advanced techniques with which to layer the Zirconium oxide framework. Participants will use press techniques in order to produce realistic full anatomy restorations. The course concludes with techniques used for achieving natural looking surface texture via glazing and polishing.

Trainers
Ivoclar Vivadent Representatives

On special request and on invitation our trainers from our ICDE in Schaan are also available, but due to the high demand and current running course program it will be subject to availabilty only.

Audience
Suitable for both less experienced ceramists and those more experienced, this course provides the perfect introduction to the IPS e.max system.

Level
Basic to Advanced
