Additional information on 3M ESPE LAVA Ultimate Restorative Preparation guidelines A traditional design is recommended for inlays and onlays. Do not prepare any undercuts. Bevel the cavity walls 5 6 degrees to the longitudinal axis of the preparation. Round all inner edges and angles. The incisal/occlusal reduction is carried out with 1.5 to 2 mm clearance with centric occlusion and all excursion movements. For veneers, the standard reduction is 0.6 mm on the labial surface and 0.4 mm in the gingiva, as the enamel is thinner there. The reduction in the incisal, labial-lingual angle is 0.5 to 1.5 mm. Leave the preparation margins in the enamel. The margins for veneers should pass above the gingiva. In addition, they should extend far enough into the approximal area so that the margins are not visible, and also should not have any approximal-gingival undercuts. For crowns and partial crowns, an axial reduction of 1.2 to 1.5 mm with a taper angle of 5 6 degrees is performed. The incisal/ occlusal reduction is carried out with 1.5 to 2 mm clearance with centric occlusion and all excursion movements. Shoulders must extend at least 1.0 mm to lingual in the approximal contact area. Non-beveled shoulder border lines are recommended. Available colors High translucency (HT) is available in the following colors: A1, A2, A3, B1. Low translucency (HT) is available in the following colors: A1, A2, A3, A3,5, B1, C2, D2, Bleach.

Processing steps. Depending on the indication, material and selected technique, various processing steps can be followed in order to achieve the final restoration.

Necessary processing step and/or technique Possible processing step and/or technique (Note: depending on the material selected, some steps can be combined.) Use suitable dental technology veneering techniques for CARES Screw-retained Bridges.

a) Crystallization This processing step is only required (and also indispensable) for IPS e.max CAD restorations by S traumann CARES. The flexural strength of the supplied IPS e.max CAD restorations by S traumann CARES is 130 ± 30 MPa. To achieve its final flexural strength of 360 ± 60 Mpa and its final optical characteristics (color, translucency and brightness), the IPS e.max CAD restorations by S traumann CARES must undergo crystallization firing in a furnace at 840 850 C for approximately 21 to 30 minutes. Further information on crystallization, compatible ovens, firing programs etc. can be found in the instructions for use. b) Polishing In this processing technique, the supplied full anatomic restoration is only polished. c) Glazing In this processing technique, the glazing substance is applied to the supplied full anatomic restoration and then the restoration is glaze-fired. For IPS e.max CAD restorations by S traumann CARES, the crystallization and glaze firing can be carried out in one step. d) Coloring In this processing technique, the color is applied to the supplied full anatomic restoration. Depending on the material, the restoration is either polished or glazed before undergoing color and glaze firing. For IPS e.max CAD restorations by S traumann CARES, the crystallization, color and glaze firing can be carried out in one step. e) Layering technique In this processing technique, various layering materials are fired onto the supplied framework. All commercially available veneering materials that are intended for veneering with the selected material and are suitable for the selected material's CTE value can be used. The veneering material manufacturers' processing instructions must be observed. Before application of the layering technique, the restoration must be cleaned with a steam jet. f) Build-up or application This processing step applies exclusively to S traumann CARES restorations made of 3M ESPE Lava Ultimate Restorative. It enables the restoration to be adapted by means of an additive technique. In this processing technique, a light-curing methacrylate-based filling material is applied to the supplied full anatomic restoration and then light-cured and polished.
