Empress 2 / Eris for E2
Layering Technique
IPS
IPS
Processing principle – easy and
efficient
Model the restoration in wax and invest.
After preheating the investment ring, the
ceramic material is pressed into the investment ring in the EP500 / EP600 press furnace. After divesting the pressed objects,
complete the restorations according to the
aesthetic and anatomic requirements using
the IPS Eris for E2 layering technique.
Material
Framework material – IPS Empress 2
lithium disilicate glass-ceramic
The tried-and-tested material is a lithium
disilicate glass-ceramic, which permits the
fabrication of bridge restoration for the
anterior and premolar regions due to its
enhanced stability. This lithium disilicate
glass-ceramic demonstrates very dense crosslinking of the lithium disilicate crystals. With
a more than 60 % vol. crystalline phase, the
material demonstrates a higher crystal
content than leucite glass-ceramics. The
flexural strength, chemical resistance, and
fracture resistance are clearly higher than
those of leucite glass-ceramic.
Layering material –
IPS Eris for E2 apatite glass-ceramic
It was our objective to develop a glassceramic material with optimized handling
properties, processing tolerance, and optical
characteristics by using apatite crystals,
which satisfies the requirements of users.
Apatite is a component of natural teeth,
influences the translucency, brightness and
light scattering ability. The IPS Eris for E2
Dentin, Incisal, Impulse, and Transparent
materials enable the fabrication of
restorations that blend in with the natural
environment.
Indication
Indication for the IPS Empress 2 /
IPS Eris for E2 layering technique
– Anterior and posterior crowns
– Three-unit bridges with one pontic and up
to the 2nd premolar as the abutment
tooth
Contraindication
– Bridges with more than one pontic
– Bridges in the molar region
– Inlay-retained bridges
–Very deep subgingival preparations
– Patients with substantial reduced residual
dentition
– Bruxism
Important processing
restrictions
The following restrictions must be observed,
to ensure success of the IPS Empress 2 /
IPS Eris for E2 layering technique.
– Obsere the required framework dimensions
(see page 23)
– Do not mix IPS Empress and IPS Empress 2
layering materials
– Do not mix metal-ceramic systems (e.g.
IPS d.SIGN)
– Do not mix powder material with materials
in paste form
– Do not apply IPS Empress Universal
Shade/Stains during layering (e.g. between
unfired dentin and incisal materials)
– Mixing of existing IPS Empress Shades/
Stains or IPS Empress 2 Stains with the
new Universal Shades/ Stains
– Mixing of existing IPS Empress Glaze and
IPS Empress 2 Glaze with the new
Universal Glaze
Side effects
If patients are known to be allergic to any
of the components in the materials,
IPS Empress 2 / IPS Eris for E2 should
not be used.

Colour coding of the Empress System
In order to ensure clear differentiation of the
various materials of the IPS Empress System,
the products are now equipped with the
following labels and colour codes.
IPS Empress staining technique
All the IPS Empress staining technique
products feature light-blue labels.
Labels for products, such as the IPS Empress ingots for the staining technique, the IPS Empress Correction
powder, and IPS Empress Add-On 770°C/1418°F feature a black bar as a neutral colour designation.
Labels for products that demonstrate higher opacity feature a salmon-coloured bar, e.g. IPS Empress ingots
for the layering technique, IPS Empress layering technique dentin materials, and IPS Empress layering
technique Mamelon materials.
Labels for products that demonstrate higher translucency feature a blue bar, e.g. IPS Empress layering
technique incisal materials and IPS Empress layering technique transparent materials.
IPS Empress layering technique
All the IPS Empress layering
technique products feature light-blue
labels, which are distinguished by the
following colour codes:

IPS Empress 2 / IPS Eris for E2
layering technique
All the IPS Empress 2 / IPS Eris for E2 layering
technique products feature yellow labels, i.e.
these products are coordinated with each
other. The IPS Eris for E2 layering material
containers are equipped with yellow lids.
Labels for products, such as IPS Empress 2 ingots, IPS Empress 2 add-on material, IPS Eris for E2 add-on material, and IPS Eris
for E2 build-up liquid, feature a black bar as a neutral colour designation.
Labels for products that
demonstrate higher opacity
feature a salmon-coloured bar,
e.g. IPS Empress 2 Dentin and
Mamelon materials, IPS Eris
for E2 Dentin and Mamelon
materials.
Labels for products that
demonstrate higher
translucency feature a blue bar,
e.g. IPS Empress 2 Incisal
or Transparent materials, and
