This article will discuss:

• about the essence of E.Max technology;
• about the advantages of pressed ceramics;
• About, in which cases it is advisable to install the E.Max system.

Recently, aesthetic dentistry services are becoming more and more popular.. This is due to the high standards, presented to man by modern society. Dental patients not only strive to maintain dental health, but also take care of improving the appearance of the dentition, After all, an attractive smile is one of the main components of a positive image.. The dental industry does not leave patients' requests unattended, and invites aesthetic aficionados to try out one of the most promising technologies in dental prosthetics – emax ceramics..

The emax system consists of a glass-ceramic or zirconium framework, covered with a layer of pressed ceramic. Press ceramics are especially durable due to the high content of leucite crystals in them., and the frame complements the aesthetics and enhances the reliability of the prosthesis. This technology solves the problem of fragility of all-ceramic orthopedic structures., besides it is universal, because it is suitable for manufacturing as prostheses of the "bridge" type, and thin dental plates lumineers.

 

e max metal-free ceramic was invented in Germany about twenty years ago. Prior to this, during prosthetics, doctors had to choose between the functionality and aesthetics of the prosthesis., but Ivoclar Vivadent has opened new horizons in aesthetic dentistry. The innovative new generation e max system has no weak points and eliminates unnecessary compromises.

Why Choose E.Max?

These orthopedic systems have several significant advantages., attention-grabbing and dentists, and their patients. For example:

1. Maximum strength indicators.
2. Full biocompatibility.
3. Expanded design shade options and excellent material light transmission.
4. Grinding of teeth for construction is minimized.
5. The absence of metal components reduces the weight of the prosthesis.
6. The system is designed for long-term operation without changing the characteristics (the original appearance of the prosthesis is preserved).
7. The hygiene of the material excludes the formation of plaque on the structure and the formation of tartar.
8. Design includes hypoallergenic materials.
9. Caring for ceramics is easy, and does not create additional inconvenience.

In what cases is E.Max ceramics installed??

It is most relevant to use press ceramics in the following situations:

1. Restoration of a single defect. It is carried out by installing an all-ceramic crown..
2. Partial restoration of a tooth with an inlay. New generation ceramics are stronger, more aesthetic, more hygienic and more durable than a light filling.
3. Tooth implantation. All-ceramic looks great on the implant, without revealing the origin of the new tooth.
4. Aesthetic prosthetics with veneers. All-ceramic microprostheses of the new technology guarantee the naturalness and durability of the restoration.

Contraindications for prosthetics with the E.Max system

This technology equally well manifests itself in the elimination of any defects in the dentition., however, some patients will still have to refuse it. Contraindications to the installation of the system are as follows:

1. Involuntary clenching of teeth, uncontrollable teeth grinding, frequent chewing movements, unrelated to eating.
2. Incorrect oral hygiene.
3. The patient has bad habits, increasing the likelihood of breakage of the orthopedic structure: opening bottles with teeth, cracking nut shells, etc..
4. The patient suffers from fluorosis (an excess of fluorine), what is manifested in yellow spots on the tooth surface.
5. The installation of a new prosthesis may be hindered by orthopedic structures already functioning in the oral cavity..

Fabrication and installation of a crown

The process of prosthetics can be represented as follows:

1. Patient examination, drawing up a treatment plan and choosing the characteristics of a future design.
2. Treatment of a prosthetic tooth and taking an impression.
3. The patient is fitted with a temporary prosthesis, protecting a turned tooth.
4. A plaster model of the teeth is formed from the cast.
5. Wax restoration is modeled.
6. A prosthesis is pressed from a workpiece in a special furnace.
7. The crown is covered with ceramic paste and fired..
8. The finished prosthesis is stained with special dyes.
9. The patient is tried on and installed pressed ceramics.

Can there be complications?

Advantages, possessed by e max ceramics, unfortunately, do not save patients from some unpleasant moments, that can be found after prosthetics. Problems are very rare, but they are not excluded.

Worth the fear:

1. Inconsistencies in the color range of the orthopedic design. If during the selection of shades of crowns or at the stage of staining in the dental laboratory there was an inaccuracy, the color of artificial crowns may not match the colors of the patient's tooth enamel. It will be immediately noticeable, and at the fitting stage, the patient should pay attention to the color of the structure.
2. Inaccurate marginal fit. An unnatural colored rim will give out the design, even if its color is in perfect harmony with neighboring teeth.
3. Irregularly shaped tooth. The crown may not match the anatomically complex shape of the incisors.
4. Incorrect installation of the prosthesis. If the crown or microprosthesis is illiterately installed, it can inflame the gums.

Situations like this won't happen., if the orthopedic dentist is qualified, a dental technician, making a prosthesis - sufficient experience.

Cost of E.Max prosthetics

Due to the novelty of the technology, pressed ceramic prostheses are expensive for patients. But they are able to provide one hundred percent aesthetics and serve for more than fifteen years.. The exact figure for the budget of prosthetics is usually called by the dentist.. It depends on the scale of the restoration., prices of related therapeutic measures and the class of the dental institution. Patients should remember, that low quality is hidden behind the low price of prosthetics.

Planning a trip to the dentist, you can expect prices from 4400 hryvnia for one crown.
