E-max veneers are made of lithium disilicate ceramic, a highly durable material. On average, they can last between 10-15 years with regular maintenance and hygiene. However, this period is directly related to your personal care habits, how well you protect your teeth, and your general oral health. Emax veneers can be affected by situations such as chewing extremely hard foods or receiving severe blows to the teeth, so it is important to use them carefully.

Although E-max veneers are generally preferred for aesthetic purposes, they can also be used to improve the functional structure of the tooth. Emax veneer application may be considered in the following cases:

Tooth discoloration: Yellowed or stained teeth can be crowned to achieve a natural appearance.

Tooth fractures and cracks: Small cracks or fractures on the teeth are corrected with a crowns.

Tooth deformities: If the teeth have aesthetic deformities, these are corrected with Emax Crowns.

Those with decayed or broken teeth: Emax Crowns are suitable for restoring the structure of the tooth.

However, there may be a slight sensitivity for a few days after the procedure. This situation usually depends on the healing process of the gums or the area around the tooth and passes over time.

The lifespan of Emax Crowns varies between 10-15 years depending on oral hygiene, dental care and the quality of the material used. It is possible to extend this lifespan with regular dental cleaning and flossing. In addition, it is recommended to avoid excessively hard foods to reduce the risk of cavities and damage to the teeth.

Yes, although Emax Crowns are quite durable, they can break as a result of chewing excessively hard foods or receiving a direct blow. Although Emax is generally preferred for aesthetic purposes on the front teeth, it can also be used on the back teeth, but it is important to be careful when chewing excessively hard foods. If you have a habit of clenching your teeth to protect your teeth, it may be recommended that you use a night plate.

The Emax Crowns application is usually spread over 2-3 appointments:

First appointment: The tooth is prepared, the shape of the tooth is adjusted and a temporary Crown is placed.

Second appointment: The Emax Crowns is prepared in a laboratory environment and is properly attached to the tooth. This process usually takes a few hours. If the teeth have not been previously veneered, the process may take several weeks to complete because the veneers require measurements of the tooth and a personalized preparation.

Emax veneers are no different from natural teeth. The life of the veneers can be extended with the following simple care:

Regular tooth brushing: Brush your teeth at least twice a day.
