IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime Zirconia

IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime is a one-disc CAD/CAM zirconia rated up to 1200 MPa, using Gradient Technology to blend two zirconium oxide components for seamless shade and translucency transitions. ZirCAD Prime covers crowns and bridges of up to 14 units (max. 2 pontics for bridges of 4 units or more), on natural teeth and implants, with every finishing technique.

ZirCAD Prime Esthetic is more translucent in the dentin (4Y-TZP) and is limited to crowns and 3-unit bridges (max. 1 pontic); the manufacturer does not approve it for the layering technique.

Highlights

Gradient Technology (GT) is the key to seamless transitions in both shade and translucency. It is based on blending two zirconium oxide components with different strengths and optical properties.

IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime is the one-disc solution – the most versatile option in the portfolio. A high-strength zirconia material of up to 1200 MPa with high precision and excellent esthetic quality. It combines esthetics with versatility and works with every fabrication technique.

  • Impressive appearance with high durability
  • High-quality restorations with seamless transitions in both shade and translucency
  • Accurate shades matched to the A–D shade system
  • All crown and bridge indications, up to 14-unit bridges (Prime)
  • Finishing techniques: staining, glaze firing, cut-back, layering and infiltration; Prime Esthetic is not approved for layering
