What are E.max Veneers and Emax crowns? Advantages and disadvantages.
Emax veneers and Emax crowns are both dental restorations used for aesthetic and functional reasons. While traditional veneers are made from porcelain, the name Emax refers to the lithium disilicate ceramic material that ensures a strong, durable, and natural appearance. Both are very popular in dentistry, especially in aesthetic treatments. The E-max full ceramic shells are the best products of indirect ceramic shells. The sustainable, high-quality materials are thin and have a natural effect. Their characteristics are their naturalness and resilience, furthermore they are hypoallergenic and metal-free.
What are e.max Veneers?
Emax veneers are thin ceramic layers placed on the front surface of the tooth.
Purpose: They serve to improve the appearance of the teeth. They are particularly suitable for changing color, shape, or size.
Procedure: The tooth requires only minimal preparation. Before placing the veneers, a small amount of tooth material is removed so the veneer fits smoothly.
Advantages: Natural appearance, thin material requiring less tooth material removal.
Disadvantages: Since they only cover the front part of the tooth, they are not suitable for the complete protection of damaged or weakened teeth. They are more fragile and less durable than Emax crowns.
What are e.max crowns?
Emax crowns are dental prostheses that completely cover the tooth, thus providing strong protection and an aesthetic solution.
Purpose: Protection and restoration of weakened, damaged, or heavily filled teeth. They are suitable for complete tooth coverage and therefore offer both functional and aesthetic solutions.
Procedure: During tooth preparation, more tooth material is removed so the crown fits comfortably. Subsequently, the crown is placed over the entire tooth surface.
Advantages: Excellent durability, strong protection, aesthetic appearance. It can restore the full function of the tooth.
Disadvantages: More tooth material must be removed compared to veneers.
Who are Emax veneers and Emax crowns suitable for?
The E-max full ceramic system offers a revolutionary solution in cases where the patient’s teeth are healthy, but they are still not satisfied with their appearance. The shape, minor defects, or the insufficiently white color – for which teeth whitening is not a real solution – can cause dissatisfaction. The E-max full ceramic offers an effective solution for the following problems:
Enamel defects.
Enamel defects include, for example, an irregular tooth surface and minor gaps between teeth. The ceramic covers them like a brilliant layer.
Minor damages.
Due to accidents or minor injuries, tooth fractures can develop on the surface, disturbing the uniform appearance. The custom-made full ceramic is very well suited for covering these flaws.
Cracked, chipped teeth.
While eating, minor injuries and tooth cracks can occur on the chewing surface. For instance, fruit pits often cause serious damage to the incisal edge of the tooth when chewing.
Discolouration of the teeth.
Tooth discoloration is a common phenomenon; the causes are the following: Discoloration of root-treated teeth, lifestyle: coffee, tea consumption, poor oral hygiene, smoking, discoloration due to medical treatments, genetic predisposition. If external or internal teeth whitening does not help with the aforementioned problem, E-max full ceramic can achieve the desired result.
Minimal lengthening of small or short teeth.
Because the uniform surface of the E-max full ceramic ensures perfect coverage, size differences can disappear or become less noticeable after attachment. Thus, the optics become uniform and harmonious.
Can anyone get Emax veneers, or E-max crowns? Who is not suitable for?
As mentioned, the ceramic shells are perfect means for correcting minor dental defects. The thin layer of E-max full ceramic offers a very beautiful aesthetic appearance. In the following cases, one should find another dental solution instead of E-max full ceramic:
Badly damages teeth.
The E-max full ceramic is not suitable for the correction of major tooth damage, such as: Crowding, malocclusion, major damage to front teeth that disturbs chewing, large fillings, gum inflammation, gaps between large teeth, significant aesthetic problems
Lifestyle, hygiene.
The E-max full ceramic is also not recommended in cases where its use is problematic due to the patient’s lifestyle. This includes the following causes:
Inadequate oral hygiene, regular teeth grinding at night, mouthguard use during sports, playing wind instruments.
We emphasize that the list above is not complete. For the best success in fabricating E-max full ceramic, a consultation is necessary in every case.
Are Emax veneers and Emax crowns healthy for the teeth?
When Emax veneers or E-max crowns are placed, preparation (tooth reduction) is necessary, which destroys the tooth structure, leading to a loss of integrity. If you choose the more expensive non prep veneers (Lumineers), the integrity of the tooth can be preserved, but due to the strength of the adhesive, this is also not fully guaranteed.
How long do Emax crowns and Emax veneers last?
The average lifespan of Emax restorations is 10–15 years, but with proper care, they can last even longer. For veneers, the lifespan also depends on how well the patient cares for them, as they only cover the tooth surface and are therefore more sensitive and less resilient than crowns.
What happens to Emax veneers after 10 years?
Emax veneers and Emax crowns also need to be replaced when worn out. However, with proper dental care, wear can be significantly delayed.
The secret to the longevity of E-max teeth.
E-max veneers will last years. Unlike direct veneers, indirect veneers have a lifespan of up to a decade. Of course, as with any dental procedures, oral hygiene, care, and lifestyle are extremely important in terms of durability. In this chapter, we will talk about aftercare.
Cleaning E-max veneers.
For cleaning, you absolutely need a toothbrush with soft bristles and a toothpaste that is gentle on tooth enamel. It is also extremely important to clean the spaces between the teeth when brushing your teeth.
The interdental spaces must also be cleaned very thoroughly. Because the full ceramic does not cover the back surfaces, cavities can develop there. Great attention must be paid to this during cleaning.
Prevention of gingivitis.
Inflammation can disturb aesthetics; if the gum is swollen, the edges of the crown can become visible. If the shape of the gum changes, a new ceramic restoration may be necessary.
Avoiding bad habits.
E-max full ceramic crowns are thin and can be easily damaged, so it is recommended to drop some bad habits. These include nail and pencil chewing, forceful biting on nut and fruit seed shells, etc. The crowns are sensitive to large temperature differences. Therefore, it is worth avoiding foods that are too hot or too cold. Because a damaged indirect crown cannot be repaired, in that case, a new crown is the only solution.
How much do 4, 6, 10, 12 and 20 Veneers,or E-max Tooth on the teeth cost?
Thanks to excellent dental technical possibilities and market competition, E-max full ceramic crowns are becoming accessible to more and more people. The price guarantees professional work and the associated benefits. If you want the best solution, discuss an appointment to choose the right alternative for you.

How veneers are made?
Compared to direct composite veneers, the fabrication of E-max full ceramic takes a little time. But the effort and preparation are worth it for the result. The excellent dental and laboratory technical possibilities allow the treatment to ideally take one week. We must expect the following phases and activities:
Consultation.
During the discussion, the specialist assesses your current dental situation and it is also discussed how your problems can be solved.
The treatment plan, smile planning
During the discussion, a detailed plan is compiled and, upon request, a digital model of the planned dentition is created using special smile designer software. The most important phase is planning the appropriate color. The color of the ceramic must match the other teeth well. Upon request, we can thoroughly clean and whiten your teeth before taking the impression.
Diagnostic cast.
During one appointment, the teeth are minimally prepared (reduced), then an impression is taken. The preparation is painless; nevertheless, local anesthesia can be used due to the discomfort. At the end, the patient can receive a temporary crown upon request until the final ceramic is ready, so you don’t have to feel bad about your teeth during these days.
Laboratory work.
In the dental laboratory, your individual full ceramic is fabricated within a few working days after the impression. It takes approx. 3-4 days.
Veneer cementation.
The fabricated ceramic is tried in, and if you like it, it is cemented. After placement, temporary sensitivity may occur, which can be alleviated with pain relievers.
