veneers or laminates

 DENTAL VENEERS.

Veneers, also known as "Dental  Laminates," are wafer-thin shells that bond to teeth. Most traditional veneers require that your dentist grind down sensitive tooth structure for a good fit. They are permanent, custom-shaped and require the removal of roughly 0.5 mm of the original tooth to allow space for the new veneer.

veneers can change the shape, color, and the contour of the tooth to achieve a fascinating smile makeover,

on the other hand, veneers has it’s limitations when it comes to misaligned or crowded teeth, or when there is some excessive occlusion forces.

Compared to E-max's lithium disilicate, zirconium is more opaque. Therefore, dentists recommend zirconium crowns for back teeth that require sturdy material that can survive a lot of biting and chewing. Zirconium is recommended for crowns with dark teeth underneath because the opaqueness hides the shadowing.

What are the disadvantages of E-max crowns?

People with the habit of grinding their teeth, called bruxism, should not be advised to have an E-max crown since they may not be able to sustain such heavy forces, even in front teeth. So basically, E-max crowns are not meant for heavy forces. The second possible disadvantage of an E-max crown is its cost.
