IPS Eris is an all-ceramic material fabricated from lithium disilicate crystals and a glass ceramic overlay. The lithium disilicate glass-ceramic is incredibly dense, providing added strength and stability to bridge spans. A member of the IPS Empress® system, the layering material in IPS Eris contains a fluorapatite crystalline microstructure that enhances biocompatibility and supports the light dispersing properties similar to those found in natural tooth structure.
The enhanced strength of the IPS Eris materials enables conventional cementation techniques to be utilized when clinical conditions prohibit adhesive techniques.
