Dental veneer (known as porcelain veneer or ceramic veneer) is a fine solution to enhance your beautiful smiles. It is suitable for a tooth that is discolored, worn down, chipped or broken, misaligned or irregularly shaped as well as a tooth with a cap. Not only providing a natural tooth appearance, a dental veneer will also not affect or irritate your gum issue. Made of stain-resistant material such porcelain, it certainly makes dark teeth appear whiter. In addition, unlike crown restoration, installation of veneer does not require extensive removal of tooth's enamel layer. This is more conservative approach that can transform you to be more confident with your beautiful smile composed with your desired tooth's colors and shapes. Even more impressively, a dental veneer is stronger and more esthetic than a dental crown or bonding.
What teeth can veneers generally fix?Teeth that are discolored; possibly as a result of a root canal treatment, stained by tetracycline or other drugs, excessive fluoride usage, or the presence
of large resin fillings that discolor the teeth
Teeth that are worn down
Teeth that are chipped or broken
Teeth that are misaligned, uneven, or irregularly shaped (for example, have craters or bulges in them)
Teeth with gaps between them (to close the space between these teeth)

Besides outstanding aesthetics with shade capacities, the Emax Veneer is also capable to be pressed as thin as 0.3 mm so that you do not need to lose much of your tooth layer for preparation.

What are the advantages of Emax veneers?The key feature of Emax veneers that makes them standout from the traditional designs is their thinness which doesn't affect their durability. This is because they are made out of a specially treated ceramic, so that they can be cut very thin but still remain durable. The Emax withstand not only chipping but also discoloration; it is known to have stain-resistible surface. Moreover, the extra thin-width feature consequently makes it appear to be less bulky and more proportional to facial structure.
The thinner the veneer implies the less the preparation or drilling of the tooth and hence the stronger the bond between the tooth and veneer. This is the outcome of minimal tooth reshaping required for veneer preparation.
Cementation of Emax veneers to the enamel would have the best and strongest bond, compared to another conventional porcelain veneers. However, please not also that the treatment plan and longevity of veneers depend on each client's dental condition and occlusion.
In what situations can Emax veneers be used?- to improve or desire the aesthetics in getting a white beautiful smile; in these cases, the top eight teeth in the aesthetic or smile zone (i.e. the teeth that are visible when smiling) are conventionally veneered.
- to repair crooked or misshaped teeth; if they are not badly aligned or have improper morphology, the looks can be instantly improved by Emax veneers. However the larger the misalignment the more tooth removal may be needed.
- to close the gap (diastema) between teeth or chipped teeth; Emax veneers are an ideal choice to close single or multiple spaces, where teeth are small with visible gap in between. They can also be used to correct and rectify the chipped teeth.
- to correct discoloured teeth; not only the shape and design of the teeth can be changed and improved by Emax veneers but also the color the teeth can be masked and covered.
Procedure for Emax veneers fitSimilar to any conventional veneers, the teeth, the facial profile and the occlusion of the teeth (the way teeth come together and more over each other) have to be clinically assessed. Based on this assessment, veneers are chosen from a list of appropriate designs. This is followed by modeling trial smiles incorporated with the chosen design and the model of teeth in wax. At this stage, if tooth removal/preparation is needed, there shall be an assessment and recommendation provided to you.
Once selection is done, a mould of your teeth will be taken and then sent away to our ceramists to build a set of veneers according to your exact specifications. When your veneers are ready, you can return to the clinic to have them permanently cemented in place, using very strong resin cements.
