Emax Veneers

What are Emax Veneers?

Emax veneers are ultra-thin lithium disilicate porcelain shells (0.3-0.5mm) that transform smiles with exceptional natural translucency and durability—the gold standard for cosmetic dentistry, lasting 15-20 years with proper care.

What to Know Before You Go

💡 Pro Tip: Always verify your clinic uses genuine Ivoclar IPS e.max—ask to see the lab certificate. Premium clinics include Digital Smile Design as standard. The best shade isn't always the whitest; match to your skin tone for natural results.

⚠️ Insider Note: Emax requires minimal tooth preparation (0.3-0.5mm) compared to traditional veneers (0.5-1mm). Some clinics still over-prepare teeth unnecessarily. Ultra-thin "no-prep" veneers are possible for some patients but not suitable for everyone. Get a second opinion if extensive grinding is proposed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How painful is getting Emax veneers?

Minimal pain. Preparation is done under local anesthesia—you feel pressure but no pain. Post-procedure sensitivity to hot/cold for 1-2 weeks is normal, managed with desensitizing toothpaste.

Are Emax veneers safe in Turkey?

Yes—reputable Turkish clinics use genuine Ivoclar IPS e.max from authorized suppliers. Ask for the lab certificate confirming authenticity. The same materials used in top Western practices are used in Turkey.

What's the difference between Emax and zirconia?

Emax: superior translucency, most natural appearance, ideal for front teeth. Zirconia: stronger, better for back teeth or heavy grinders, less natural-looking. Most cosmetic dentists prefer Emax for visible teeth.

How many days do I need in Turkey for Emax veneers?

5-7 days. Day 1-2: consultation and preparation. Days 3-5: lab fabrication. Day 6-7: fitting and bonding. Some clinics offer 4-day options, but 5-7 days allows better quality control.

How long do Emax veneers last?

15-20 years with proper care. Some last 25+ years. Avoid biting hard objects, wear a night guard if you grind, maintain excellent oral hygiene, and see your dentist regularly.

Will Emax veneers look natural?

Yes—Emax is prized for its natural light transmission, mimicking real tooth enamel. A skilled dentist will match shade and translucency to your surrounding teeth and skin tone for seamless results.

Can Emax veneers be whitened later?

No—veneers don't respond to whitening. Choose your shade carefully, as it's permanent. If you plan to whiten natural teeth, do so before getting veneers to match the lighter shade.

How do I verify genuine Emax?

Ask for the Ivoclar lab certificate with batch number. Reputable clinics provide this documentation. The certificate confirms your veneers are genuine IPS e.max, not inferior imitations.
