E-max Veneers
E-max veneers are ultra-thin, individually created shells made with the highest quality dental material, lithium disilicate glass-ceramic. They are placed over the front surface of the teeth to enhance the colour, shape, size and alignment and to retain as much of the natural tooth structure as possible. One of the most popular veneer materials available is e-max which is widely regarded as one of the most aesthetic materials available as a veneer material due to its ability to closely mimic the appearance of natural enamel yet provide excellent durability.
E-max Veneers offer several advantages:
- Superior translucency for highly natural appearance.
- Has remarkable strength and fracture resistance than a regular porcelain veneer.
- Little or no tooth preparation is needed.
- Resistant to stains of coffee, tea and wine.
- Neither irritating nor harmful to surrounding gum tissue.
- Will last for 10 – 15 years or longer with proper care.
- Designed to blend in with neighbouring teeth in color and shape.

- Discolored Teeth Not Responding to Whitening

Temporary crowns will be made
- A temporary veneer can be used to hold the restoration in place until they are ready.

E max veneers cementation
Reasons for proper cementation
A successful cementation can provide a number of advantages:
- Creates a strong and durable bond between the veneer and tooth
- Replaces natural finishes in a way that doesn't detract from them.
- Improves fracture resistance
- Reduces danger of debonding
- Does not allow bacteria to penetrate or leak through the sealant.
- Provides durability of clinical effect
The materials for an E-max veneer cementation include the following:
- E-max (lithium disilicate) veneers
- Try-in paste
- Hydrofluoric acid (for laboratory or chairside etching of the veneer)
- Silane coupling agent
- Use the phosphoric acid solution (35-37%) for enamel etching.
- Dental bonding agent
- Light-cure or dual-cure resin cement for temporary cements.
- Rubber dam or isolation system:
- LED curing light
- Cleaning and polishing instruments.
Step-by-Step E-max Veneers Cementation Procedure:
Shade Verification and Try-In
- The dentist examines the fit, shape, margins and shade of the veneer with a try-in paste. Adjustments are made prior to permanent bonding.
Tooth Isolation
- Teeth are isolated by using a rubber dam or cotton rolls so that the area will not be contaminated and moist. Moisture control is critical to the best bond.
Tooth Surface Preparation
- Use pumice to clean the tooth.
- Apply 35-37% phosphoric acid and etch for 15-30 seconds.
- Rinse and gently air dry.
- Follow the manufacturer's instructions for bonding.
Veneer Surface Preparation
Inside surface of E-max veneer is prepared by:
- Etched using hydrofluoric acid (concentrated and with etching time as recommended by the manufacturer).
- Rinsing and drying thoroughly.
- Improving chemical bonding with the use of a silane coupling agent.
- Let the silane react prior to the gentle air drying step.
Cement Application
- A thin layer of resin cements is applied onto the inside of the veneer. The color of the cement is chosen to match the final shade of the tooth.
Veneer Seating
- The veneer is gently and even placed on the tooth to provide a complete fit.
- The extra cement must be removed.
- Brushes, floss or proper dental tools are used to remove excess cement prior to final curing.
Light Curing
- The light is cured from several directions to ensure complete polymerisation of the resin cement as recommended by the manufacturer.
Finishing and Polishing
After curing:
- The rest of the cement is taken off.
- Polished edges.
- Bite and occlusion examined and corrected, if required.
Conclusion
The e-max veneers are among the most recent cosmetic dental options for a natural and gorgeous smile. They are produced from high-strength lithium disilicate ceramics and are highly aesthetic, durable and require very little tooth preparation making them ideal for correcting stained, chipped, worn and slightly misaligned teeth. They are extremely translucent and stain resistant which will help them keep the smile bright and attractive for years. They might cost more than some alternative types of veneer materials but they last a long time and produce an amazing cosmetic look for many patients.
