The aim of this paper is to report the state of current literature and recommendations for the lithium disilicate glass-ceramic IPS e.Max. The materials science, mechanical and optical properties were reviewed. Additionally an assessment was conducted of current implementation recommendations and clinical outcomes. This paper provides a brief historical overview, summary of the findings the findings of current literature, and clinical recommendation for the use of IPS e.Max CAD in dental applications.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare the optical, mechanical, and biological properties of two new, inexpensive lithium disilicate (LS2) materials (Lodden (LOD), LD Medical Technology; and BeautyZir (BZ), BeautyZir Technology) to a clinically established LS2 material (IPS e.max CAD (EMAX), Ivoclar Vivadent).
Methods And Materials: The optical properties of the translucency parameter (TP) and opalescence parameter (OP) were obtained with a dental spectrophotometer.

Background: The present study assessed the impact of thermomechanical aging on the marginal fit of hybrid ceramic, reinforced composite resin, and lithium disilicate ceramic.
Methods: Eighteen human upper first premolars freshly extracted for orthodontic purposes were used to fabricate 18 CAD-CAM veneers and divided into three groups based on materials used: group H (n=6): hybrid ceramics (Vita Enamic), group R (n=6): reinforced composite resin (Brilliant crios), and group L (n=6): lithium disilicate ceramic (IPS e-max CAD). Each material's cementation procedure was carried out according to the manufacturer's instructions.
