IPS e.max Ceram Art Illusion 5g – Optical Effect Pastes for Monolithic Restorations | Ivoclar
Pastes designed to reproduce the natural optical effects of the tooth: they do not provide a base color, but rather light dynamics, depth, texture, and transition, imitating the properties of enamel and anatomical details. Essential for highly aesthetic results in monolithic restorations.
Indications for use
- Reproduction of mamelons, opalescence, halos, light absorption effects, and cervical transitions
- Creation of three-dimensional depth without traditional layering
- Adding vitality and naturalness to incisal edges, marginal ridges, and optical detail areas
- Adjusting the value, translucency, and light behavior of the restoration
Available variants
Illusion Mamelon – Incisal mamelon effects:
- Mamelon Red-Orange – Pronounced mamelons with a warm reddish hue. For young dentition or accentuated internal anatomy
- Mamelon Light-Salmon – Soft and natural mamelon effect with a slight salmon hue
Illusion Opal – Opalescence for translucent incisal edges:
- Opal Light-Blue – Light blue opalescence for young, translucent enamel
- Opal Sky-Blue – More visible vitreous effect with moving light
- Opal Night Blue – Deep opalescence for very vitreous and cool enamels
Illusion Halo – Luminous incisal halo:
- Halo Ivory – Light ivory halo, classic for natural incisors
- Halo Ocher – Warm ocher halo for warm shades or aged enamels
Illusion Enamel:
- Enamel Pearl – Increases the value of the incisal third and marginal ridges. "Butterfly" effect and vitreous luster
Illusion Absorber – Value reduction and light absorption:
- Absorber Light-Violet – Delicate violet to decrease value on incisal and proximal surfaces
- Absorber Fog – Neutral gray to balance overly bright restorations
- Absorber Quartz – Pronounced absorption for deep shadows at the margins without losing translucency
Illusion Cervical – Natural cervical transition:
- Cervical Yellow-Pink – Warm yellow-pink hue for the tooth-gingiva transition in light cervical areas
- Cervical Nude – Soft and neutral shade for conservative aesthetics and natural cases
Final Result
Illusion pastes allow for an extremely accurate reproduction of internal enamel and dentin effects: depth, luster, shadows, opalescence, and transition for a monolithic restoration with light behavior practically identical to the natural tooth.
