E.max opal ingots

[EJADA]

I need input on these ingots. I have used them a couple of times and like them. In have 8&9 thin veneers patient has bleached. 7&10 are now very opalescent (beautiful) they look about HT-BL3 but very opalescent. Thickness about .04 mm. Nd2. Im thinking the Impulse 02.

FEEDBACK PLEASE.

Probably to late for ya, but the Opals should be ideal for that case.

Ive used the Opal 2 for thin veneers and they work great as an enamel only replacement.

Thank you.

What did you go with? I would have used the Impulse 2 as well.

Well i ended up using the opal 2 ingot. #8 was thinner and made me real nervous that the show thru would not be even enough and not match. i went to drs office for the the seating and after waiting 1/2 hour was about to miss another appt had to leave. i figuered I would be seeing them again for adjustment. When I got back to the office the message there was they went in great Pt. happy Dr. Happy and I have no idea how they really looked. you know to my eyes. Maybe I'll get some pics down the road. way to much drama.

I think it might be a good idea for us to post our experiences with these ingots as Ivoclar has no guidelines that I can find. If you all want we can use this thread. Just a thought.

I see great potential for these but only under the strictest conditions.

You can get a DVD from Ivoclar which has loads of info from your rep (in the uk anyhoo!) That should help!

They're not great, but here is a photo of Opal 1 (on left) and Opal 2 on an ND 1
for comparison

Any luck finding out about this DVD?

Hey look what I got. Saw them on labshop/IVOCLAR. Pretty cool huh?

By the way I was told that the veneers were great and patient was very happy. I'm hoping to see them when patient comes in for check. If so I will take some pics and post.

Thanks for the input it was helpful.
