Ivoclar Ips Empress Direct Opaque Syringe

Features

Description

The light-curing opaque IPS Empress Direct Opaquer material reliably masks undesired tooth discolourations, exposed metal surfaces and core build-ups in the anterior and posterior region. Given its high masking power, even the application of thin layers is sufficient to mask undesired discolourations or metal surfaces successfully: Even in deeper areas, discolouration is no longer visible.

Indications:

Masking of:

• Exposed metal surfaces when repairing damaged ceramic or composite veneers intraorally
• discoloured tooth structure

Key Specifications

• Storage temperature: 2 – 28°C / 36 – 82 °F.
• Do not use IPS Empress Direct Opaque after the expiry date.

Packaging

• 1 x 1.8 g syringe

Direction of use

• Step 1.

Apply IPS Empress Direct Opaque to the prepared metal surface only. The layer applied should have a thickness of maximum 0.5 mm. Lightcure IPS Empress Direct Opaque according to the table 1 on reverse. Hold the light emission window of the curing light as close to the material as possible. If the surface is still not sufficiently masked, apply a second layer of IPS Empress Direct Opaque and light-cure again.

• Step 2.

If the cavity includes proximal areas, place a matrix band and secure it with a wedge.

• Step 3.

Repair the restoration by applying composite material (e.g. IPS Empress Direct) in increments. Light-cure each increment according to the instructions of the manufacturer of the respective product.

• Step 4.

Finishing and polishing.
