IPS e.max Ceram is suitable for efficient standard layering as well as for demanding high-end layering with lifelike play of light. The classic Dentin and Incisal materials are ideally coordinated with more opaque all-ceramic framework structures and thus are ideally suitable for the veneering of more opaque substructures. Brightness and chroma are balanced. Therefore, an optimum shade match with the A-D shade guide is achieved.

The Opal Effect materials are available in six shade gradations. Starting with Opal Effect 1 – with naturally enhanced opalescence and simultaneous high translucency – the brightness value between Opal Effect 2 and Opal Effect 4 is continuously increased. Opal Effect 5 then demonstrates the typical opal shade. The Opal Effect violet material is used to reduce the brightness value in the incisal area.
