An Emax veneer is a thin shell made of lithium disilicate ceramic that is placed on the front surface of teeth to improve their shape, color, or alignment. It is well known for its lifelike translucency and natural brightness, making it one of the most aesthetic veneer options available.

Advantages:
The main advantages of Emax veneers are their superior aesthetics and ability to closely mimic natural teeth. They require minimal tooth reduction compared to zirconia or porcelain veneers, which helps preserve more of the original tooth structure. Emax is also biocompatible, safe for the gums, and resistant to stains or discoloration, ensuring a long-lasting and natural-looking smile.

Disadvantages:

They are not as strong as zirconia and may not be the ideal choice for patients who grind or clench their teeth heavily. Under extreme pressure, they can fracture, and repairs can be challenging if damage occurs. Additionally, the cost of Emax veneers is typically higher than that of traditional porcelain veneers, which can make them less accessible for some patients.
