I got a feeling that Ivoclar is feeling some pressure...I had a visit from their rep this morning trying to sweet talk me into buying a larger ingot order for a "bargain" price...o_O
I heard it is going to be discontinued.

Didn't that have a issue in that the porcelain was de-bonding from the core (Emp2),or was the the generation before, and the Empress2 and Eris was supposed to fix it?

Youre crazy if you think ivoclar didnt dump a good chunk of that emax income into R&Ding the 'next big thing'.. They didnt get to where they are by luck.

Yes, Ivoclar is the enemy and because of them no one has been able to make a profitable lithium disilicate restoration for way too many years. About time they're getting what's coming to them. Obviously.

I believe it was the same company that manufactured Willie Geller's line of porcelain. Reason why GC Initial is very similar. I think......
Read that somewhere years ago.

I didn't start the thread to bash Ivoclar...I think E.max has been a HUGE restoration in our inventory as labs. Ivoclar has always been very gracious with me and by no means, none of us should have much to say negative to them. By offering a different lithium disilicate, just means that, it isn't a 'screw you' to ivoclar. We all know products have a bell curve per say, I think it's just good business to be ready offer the next best thing whenever it comes out. Hence why this thread was started. Pressed my first ingots today, I'll keep ya posted, even though others here already have many cases posted.

A question for those that have pressed a few.. If I'm used to using a A1 mt would I also use their version of an A1 MT ? Just trying to get a feel for the opacity level of the pellets before I order any ,, Thanks
