Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the clinically relevant properties of the recently introduced ceramic material IPS Empress, which is marketed for all-ceramic restorations. The following parameters were investigated: three- and four-point bending strength, bi-axial flexure strength, compressive and diametral tensile strength, compressive strength and marginal fit of full crowns. The results show that this material is a highly developed glass-ceramic with physical properties making this dental material well suitable for adhesively luted restorations.
