  Description

  Translucency and opacity

  Like natural dentin, the IPS Empress Direct Dentin shades exhibit higher opacity and more opacious saturated chroma than the Enamel materials. They support the basic color of the tooth structure from within. The translucency of the Enamel materials has been adjusted to diffuse the dentinal substrate. Further gradations in translucency are achieved with the Trans 20, Trans 30 and Opal shades.

  The well-balanced and mutually complementing translucencies of the IPS Empress Direct Dentin and Enamel materials give you the power to create exceptional esthetics with accurate color every time

  New opalescent shade

  Opalescence is evident in the incisal area of natural teeth. In simple terms, this optical effect is based on the different ways in which long waves (red) and short waves (blue) of light are scattered. If a tooth is examined in incidental light it appears to have a bluish tinge, while in transmitted light this color changes to reddish-orange

  This effect has to be imitated with the corresponding materials in the restoration of teeth

  Quick and accurate shade match

  Two autoclavable shade guides depict the various shades and translucency levels of the IPS Empress Direct system. As with the IPS Empress all-ceramic materials, the shade tabs are made of high quality ceramic to provide long term stability for consistent shade match over time

  Advantages:

  • Wide range of indications for anterior and posterior teeth
  • Compatible with IPS Empress Direct Color, Tetric EvoFlow and most light-cure resin-composites
  • The shade guide is autoclavable and made of ceramic: the shade guide retains its integrity over many years since the shade tabs do not fade if exposed to light.
