The Everest® CAD/CAM System
with its 5 machining axes can
process a wide variety of innovative materials with excellent
biocompatible properties.
This single system can be used
to fabricate virtually every type
of dental prosthesis from a wide
range of indications and materials.
The Everest® material blanks are
manufactured from high-quality, optimised materials under
industrial conditions. Their outstanding material properties are
retained throughout the entire
production process, because
manual stages such as casting,
soldering, mixing etc. are not
required at any stage. Unlike
metal castings, the frames are
not subject to distortion and tension. This is an important
requirement for dental restorations.
The use of CAD/CAM makes it
possible to calculated the loading
capacity of bridge constructions.
Connections between bridge sections and crowns can be formed
to resist the forces encountered.
The fit, the edge gap and all other
fabrication parameters can all be
specified in advance to μ. With
the data-supported fabrication
crowns and bridge frames can be
reproduced 1:1, even after
decades.

Marginal gap
Everest® ZS fabrications
Zirconium has a special position
among ceramic materials. It has
excellent mechanical properties
that give it strength, long-term
stability and toughness.
Everest® ZS-Blanks are presintered zirconium blanks that are
milled in their soft, chalk-like
raw state. Then the material
shrinks by about 20% in the subsequent sintering process (generally overnight). As shown by
measurement of the marginal
gap, work fabricated with the
Everest® System is noted for outstanding precision and exact fit
in the final sintered stage.
One special feature of zirconium
is its ability to prevent defects
that in other materials would
enlarge under stress and reduce
the loading capacity of the
restoration. However, when
using zirconium, defects on the
surface or in the volume tend to
‘clamp together’ under loading,
and the fatigue characteristics
are significantly reduced compared to metals and other
ceramic materials.
For even better aesthetics.
The Everest® ZS frames can be
completely coloured with VITA
COLORING
LIQUID
in
5 colours or partially coloured
with the brush. VITA COLORING
LIQUID is available from specialist suppliers.
No loss of strength.
A study by KaVo at the Karlsruhe
Research Centre has shown that
Everest® ZS-Blanks coloured
with VITA COLORING LIQUID
have a Weibull flexural strength
of 1135 MPa.
An independent study by the
University of Munich has also
shown that Everest® zirconium
ceramics have no loss of flexural
strength regardless of whether
they are uncoloured or coloured.
Even after years of use the
Weibull
flexural
strength
remains constant at 1155 MPa.

Everest® ZH-Blanks consist of
dense-sintered, yttrium-stabilised, HIP zirconium.
Unlike Everest® ZS-Blanks,
ZH-Blanks are machined after
sintering.
Because the material is no longer
subject to sintering shrinkage,
the work can be fabricated at a
scale of 1:1 and subsequent sintering is not required. The material is also noted for a high flexural strength of > 1200 MPa.
This makes it ideally suited for
wide-span bridges to a maximum width of 45 mm.

Porcelain inlay
Everest® G-Blanks are porcelain
products, which are an ideal
combination of the material
properties of glass and ceramic.
The industrial manufacturing
process, starting with a viscous
glass, involves making the mould
first. A final tempering stage
crystallises the product from the
original amorphous mass. This
special process delivers a material that combines the favourable
optical properties of glass with

Everest® HPC (High Performance
Ceramic) Blanks consist of a biocompatible zirconium silicate
ceramic, which has the important property of not being subject to shrinkage during sintering. HPC-Blanks are milled in
their presintered, soft stage and
then sintered overnight at
approx. 1500 °C. This makes it
possible to test the function of
full crowns in the articulator
before sintering and correct
them without difficulty — the
contact points are retained even
after sintering.
The real novelty is that the HPCBlanks are black while unsintered and become white only
after sintering. The finished
white products can be individually coloured and customised

Everest® BIO T-Blanks of titanium are preferred for classical

and for rehabilitating patients
with allergies.
The Everest® titanium blank is an
industrially manufactured block
of pure surgical-grade titanium
(grade 2). With the aid of the
CAD/CAM milling technology it
retains its material properties
throughout the entire fabrication
process (no alpha case layer, no
shrinkage cavities). The biological
compatibility of pure titanium
has been scientifically confirmed
in numerous studies.

IPS e.max CAD step-by-step
IPS e.max CAD is a lithium disilicate porcelain block for processing
with Everest® CAD/CAM technology.
As the result of an innovative production process the material
already has an impressive homogeneity in its intermediate crystalline stage. The block in this form
can be machined very easily with
Everest®.
The characteristic and striking IPS
e.max CAD colouring is the result
of the composition and structure
of the lithium disilicate porcelain,
and it varies from whitish to blue
to blue-grey.
The anterior and posterior region
Coping in the anterior and posterior region
and bridge frameworks up to 3 units in the anterior region
The strength of the material
in the machinable intermediate
phase is approx. 150 MPa and
thus is comparable with other
porcelain blocks on the market.
After grinding the blue IPS e.max
CAD blocks, it is crystallised for
approx. 30 minutes at 850 °C in
an ivoclar vivadent® ceramic furnace. The structure change that
takes place in this process gives
the porcelain its required final
properties, such as 360 MPa
strength and a WAK (coefficient
of thermal expansion) of 10.5 x
10-6 K-1. This process also gives
the material its final optical properties, such as colour, translucence and brightness.
The material is available in the
opacity grade “Medium Opacity”
in 5 colours (MO 0, MO 1, MO 2,
MO 3, MO 4) and is compatible
to both the A-D and the
Chromascop colour key.
