What Are Emax (or e.max) Veneers?
Emax veneers are a type of porcelain veneer made from a special porcelain called lithium disilicate. They are used to improve the appearance of the teeth by covering up surface imperfections such as chips, stains, or gaps.
One of the unique features of Emax veneers is their excellent translucency and opalescence, which gives them a natural-looking appearance and makes them virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth. As a result, Emax veneers are often the preferred choice for many of Dr. Esfandiari’s patients who want to achieve excellent esthetics, especially in the front teeth.
Emax veneers are made in a dental laboratory and are then bonded to the front surface of the teeth. They are relatively thin and do not require the removal of as much tooth structure as traditional crowns. Emax veneers are highly durable and can last for many years with proper care.
Emax Veneers Vs. Porcelain: Which is Better?
Emax veneers are made of a type of porcelain called lithium disilicate, which allows them to be fabricated in thin sections, typically between 0.3 to 0.5 mm. In contrast, traditional porcelain veneers require a minimum thickness of 0.5 to 0.7 mm. This means that Emax veneers require less removal of natural tooth structure and are less likely to cause tooth sensitivity or decay. These characteristics make Emax veneers a popular choice among patients at our San Jose office.
What Is The Difference Between Composite and Emax Veneers?
Composite veneers are made of tooth-colored polymeric resins. These resins are first shaped accordingly by Dr. Esfandiari and then activated using a special light. On the other hand, Emax veneers can only be fabricated in a laboratory and require extreme precision and skill. Since Emax crowns are prepared under controlled laboratory conditions, they possess fewer structural defects, making them esthetically pleasing and durable. That is why Emax veneers are preferred by Dr. Esfandiari when excellent esthetics are desired.
How Are Emax Veneers Prepared by Dr. Esfandiari?
The process of fabrication of Emax veneers in our San Jose office is similar to traditional porcelain veneers.
- First, Dr. Esfandiari will perform a clinical examination and look at the x-ray images, and study models of your teeth. This will be done to prepare a detailed treatment plan.
- At the next appointment, she will remove a thin layer of your damaged teeth to create space for the veneers. This process is known as tooth preparation.
- Afterward, Dr. Esfandiari will make an impression of your teeth, which will be sent to our local dental laboratory near San Jose, along with information regarding the desired shade and color of the Emax veneers.
- At the final appointment, Dr. Esfandiari will try on your prepared teeth and check their fit and esthetics. If everything goes well, she will bond the veneers to the teeth permanently using adhesive. On the other hand, if minor adjustments are needed, they can be done at the dental chairside.
Emax Veneers: Frequently Asked Questions
Can Emax Veneers Last Forever?
All dental restorations and prostheses have a limited service life. Likewise, it might be possible to extend the life of your Emax veneers beyond 20 years with proper care. However, most dental materials degrade over time and need to be repaired or replaced. So, you may have to get your Emax veneers replaced by Dr. Esfandiari once they start degrading.
Why Are Emax Veneers The Best Veneers?
Emax veneers are a popular choice for improving the appearance of the teeth due to their excellent esthetics and durability. Some of the specific benefits of Emax veneers include:
- Natural-looking appearance: Emax veneers have excellent translucency and opalescence, which gives them a natural-looking appearance and makes them virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth.
- Thin and conservative: Emax veneers can be made in thin sections, typically between 0.3 to 0.5 mm, which means they require less removal of natural tooth structure than traditional porcelain veneers.
- Durable and long-lasting: Emax veneers are made of a strong and durable material called lithium disilicate, which can last for many years with proper care.
- Stain-resistant: Emax veneers are resistant to staining and do not discolor over time, which can help them maintain their natural-looking appearance.
Overall, Emax veneers are a high-quality and esthetically pleasing option for improving the appearance of the teeth. However, it is important to note that the best choice for you will depend on your specific needs and goals. It is recommended to consult with Dr. Esfandiari to determine the best option for you.
Which Is Better, Emax Or Porcelain Veneers?
As discussed earlier, Emax veneers are also a type of porcelain veneers. However, porcelain veneers require more tooth structure to be removed for their bonding, as they need to be fabricated in greater thickness (at least 0.5 mm). On the other hand, Emax veneers are more tooth-conservative; they can be as thin as 0.3 mm. Hence, Emax veneers require less tooth removal by Dr. Esfandiari and reduce the likelihood of dental complications such as sensitivity and tooth decay. More importantly, the translucency of Emax veneers is greater than traditional porcelain veneers and hence, possess superior esthetics.
Is Emax The Same As Porcelain?
Yes, Emax veneers are a type of porcelain veneers. However, Emax veneers are primarily glass-based ceramics, meaning the glass is fired over the veneers to give a shiny and lifelike appearance. So, Emax veneers are an esthetically superior type of traditional porcelain veneers.
How Long Do Porcelain Emax Veneers Last?
Like all other dental restorations and prostheses, the service life of Emax veneers depends on various factors, such as the quality of the material used, the dentist and the laboratory technician’s skill, and patient compliance. However, Emax veneers generally last up to 20 years with optimal oral hygiene care and regular dental checkups with our Los Gatos office.
How Much are Emax Veneers?
The cost of Emax veneers can vary depending on a number of factors, including the complexity of the case, the number of veneers being placed, the location of the dental practice, and the dental insurance coverage of the patient. On average, Emax veneers in San Jose can cost anywhere from $1,500 to $2,500 per tooth, although the final cost may be higher or lower depending on the specific circumstances. It is important to consult with Dr. Esfandiari to get a detailed estimate of the cost of Emax veneers for your specific case. Keep in mind that in very rare circumstances your California dental insurance may cover some of the cost of veneers, depending on the specific policy and the reason for the treatment.
