Ivoclar Smile Award 2026
Because every smile tells a unique story.
Four regions, one passion: creating smiles that change lives.
The Ivoclar Smile Award aims to showcase how IPS e.max has positively transformed patients’ lives around the world. And while every regained smile is a true win, esthetic expectations can differ — which is why, in the “Proven Master” category, three finalists will be selected for each of the four evaluation regions.
- Europe / Middle East / Africa
- North America / Oceania
- Latin America
- Asia
Judging Excellence
All IPS e.max cases are evaluated anonymously, based solely on the submitted photos and videos. Videos provide the jury with a realistic overall impression of each case.
Finalists are selected based on:
- Case complexity and creativity
- Technical mastery: from preparation to placement and final result
- Impact on the patient: esthetics, function, and overall quality of life
Every smile tells a story – and every detail counts.
