What is an E-Max ceramic restoration?
E-Max is a ceramic restoration system used in dentistry; some of its products are glass-ceramic based. It may be considered for different types of restoration depending on the tooth’s needs; the clinician determines the material and design.
Who may be assessed for treatment?
The remaining tooth structure, gum health, position of the restoration and bite are assessed. Factors such as clenching and existing restorations may be important when selecting the material.
Treatment plan and stages
An appropriate treatment plan is determined after clinical assessment. If necessary, the stages include tooth preparation, an impression or scan, fabrication of the restoration and a fit check in the mouth.
Care and follow-up
Continue brushing, cleaning between teeth and clinician check-ups. Biting hard objects can damage a restoration. Consult your clinician if there is a crack, looseness or discomfort.
