Ivoclar Ips Empress Direct Opaque Syringe :1.8 gm syringe

Features

High masking capability even when applied in thin layers
The ideal complement to the IPS Empress System

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

Specifications

Directions For 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.
