E-max CAD
IPS e.max CAD is a lithium disilicate glass-ceramic block for the CAD/CAM technique. It is fabricated using an innovative process which provides an impressive homogeneity of the material. The block can be processed very easily in
a CAD/CAM unit in this crystalline intermediate stage. The typical and striking color of IPS e.max CAD ranges from
whitish to blue and bluish-grey. This shade is a result of the composition and the microstructure of the glass-ceramic
