Crowns & veneers
E-max Laminate Veneers in Turkey
E-max laminate veneers are thin glass-ceramic shells bonded to the front of the teeth to improve their colour, shape or alignment. They are mainly used on the front teeth.
The basics
What is an E-max veneer?
A veneer covers the visible front surface of a tooth. E-max is a lithium disilicate ceramic that combines translucency with strength, which makes it suitable for visible front teeth.
Teeth that are heavily damaged or decayed usually need a different treatment, such as zirconia crowns or implants. If a tooth already has a crown, an E-max veneer cannot be used.
We use IPS e.max by Ivoclar, and every veneer is made in our own dental laboratory.
Suitability
Who can have E-max veneers?
- People unhappy with the shape or colour of their visible teeth
- Misshapen, slightly misaligned or crooked front teeth
- Chipped teeth, uneven spacing and small gaps
Benefits
Benefits of E-max veneers
- A natural, translucent appearance
- A strong bond to the tooth
- Less likely to chip than many alternatives
- Planned with a trial smile before treatment
Alternatives
Veneers or zirconia crowns?
Where teeth are crowded or have large fillings or cavities, zirconia crowns may give a more predictable result. Your dentist explains the options after your consultation.
