Lithium Disillicate

There are two dominant players with this material today, IPS e.max and GC LISI Press. Both materials are relatively high strength ceramis (400 MPa for IPS e.max and 500 MPa for LISI Press) that can be pressed as thin as 0.2mm and come in a variety of opacities to provide exellent aesthetic results in a wide variety of clinical applications. Both IPS e.max and LISI Press work well at a minimal thickness for veneers and equally well as full crown, inlay and onlay. Moreover, these restorations are kind to adjacent and opposing teeth, having similar wear characteristics as enamel.

Lithium disillicate restorations  are a leading alternative to metal-based restorations. Our highly-trained and experienced techicians apply their expertise to each of your lithium disillicate restorations, Both IPS e.max and LISI Press restorations can be layered for maximum aesthetics or prescribed monolithic to maximize strength.

You will receive the maximum flexural strength from your IPS e.max and LISI Press from An Nhien Dental Studio as we pneumatically press these restorations. It cost a little more for us to produce these type of restorations, but it is worth it to provide you with the strongest restorations with the best marginal adaptation

GC Initial LiSi Press is a high-strength lithium disilicate ingot with proprietary HDM (High Density Micronization) technology that equally disperses micro-crystals—rather than traditional larger-size crystals—to fill the entire glass matrix, resulting in excellent physical properties and aesthetics. It has a biaxial flexural strength of >500MPa and virtually no reaction layer when divested. The material is wear resistant. LISI Press is ideal for veneers, inlays, onlays, single-unit anterior or posterior crowns,  screw-retained implant crowns, 3-unit anterior bridges or restorations with minimum preparation dimensions.

IPS e.max made from monolithic lithium dislocate ceramic, e.max is known for esthetics and perfect fit. e.max is often used as an alternative to PFMs. If your patient is looking for optimal esthetics in their dental restoration, IPS e.max is the solution. Providing flawless contacts and occlusion, and flexural strength of 360-400 MPa, e.max is ideal for veneers, inlays, onlays, single-unit anterior or posterior crowns,  screw-retained implant crowns, 3-unit anterior bridges or restorations with minimum preparation dimensions.
