Manufacturing technologies

In the process of creating emax crowns, 2 technologies are used - pressing and 3D milling.

The pressing method begins with wax modeling and taking an impression. The resulting model is sent to a special oven, where the final shape of the prosthesis is formed under the influence of pressure and temperature. Then, depending on the requirements for restoration, additional decoration is carried out (veneering, painting, glazing).

3D milling technology involves the use of CAD/CAM systems. They are essential for precise and automated production. After an intraoral scan of the patient, a computer program generates a 3D projection of the future prosthesis, which is then implemented on a milling machine. This method virtually eliminates errors in production, and the use of high-quality materials allows you to achieve high strength and aesthetic appeal of the product.

Features of E-Max crowns compared to other crowns

E-max crowns are used to restore individual teeth and create bridge-like orthopedic structures. Emax composite is 70% lithium disilicate, which has improved light refraction properties and provides excellent aesthetics.

Types of orthopedic products made from E-max

Thin ceramic plates - veneers - are used to cover the front teeth. They are especially relevant when:

  • Microcracks
  • Chipped
  • Significant distances between teeth

Inlays are an alternative to traditional fillings: they are intended for the restoration of teeth that are damaged by approximately 30-40%. Such products are usually used in the upper part of the chewing element, after caries has been eliminated.

Crowns and standard fixed dentures help restore teeth damaged by more than 60%.

Characteristics

Emax dental crowns are made of pressed ceramics based on lithium disilicate. Unlike traditional metal-ceramic structures, such prostheses do not contain a metal frame. This allows them to accurately reproduce the shade and transparency of natural enamel.

Dentures can withstand significant chewing loads. This feature allows them to be used even in the lateral parts of the jaw. Despite their strength, E-Max crowns are lightweight. Due to this, significant changes to the supporting teeth are not required when installing the structure.

The surface of the crowns is less susceptible to the formation of plaque and deposits. This helps prevent caries on adjacent teeth.

Advantages of E-Max crowns

Zirconium crowns are made using CAD/CAM computer design technology, converting impressions into digital format. Ceramic crowns are formed using the pressed casting method, which makes them more stable and suitable for the restoration of chewing teeth.

E-max ceramics can be used to make prostheses of various shapes - from lumineers (extremely thin overlays on teeth) and veneers (plates fixed to the outer side of the tooth) to regular crowns and bridges (structures replacing one or more teeth). The main disadvantage of E-max ceramic crowns is their high price.

Ceramic crowns e max have a number of advantages:

  • Wear resistance The product can be used without fear of chipping or cracking
  • Light weight and minimal thickness The absence of a metal base makes the structure lighter and thinner
  • Natural appearance The material is highly transparent and has natural light reflectivity, which allows them to imitate natural teeth as accurately as possible
  • Hypoallergenic properties The material does not interact with oral tissues, which eliminates any allergic reactions to the components
  • Reliable fixation E-Max is well compatible with adhesive cements, which ensures strong installation
  • Minimal tooth preparation Installation requires less grinding of healthy dental tissue, unlike traditional metal structures

General information about the procedure

Indications and contraindications

E-Max ceramic crowns are the optimal choice in a number of clinical situations. In particular, they are recommended for use in the following cases:

  • Changing the color of the enamel. When teeth lose their natural color, the design effectively restores their appearance
  • Aesthetic defects. Crowns help remove chips, cracks and stains on teeth
  • The need for restoration. Such structures are intended to restore severely damaged or destroyed chewing elements
  • Prosthetics after implantation. E-Max crowns can be used for implant prosthetics in any area of the oral cavity

There are also certain contraindications to installing Imax crowns. In particular, they should be abandoned against the background of high tooth wear, bruxism and the development of serious bite pathologies. They are not installed even if the central incisors are severely damaged.

Prosthetics procedure

The process of dental prosthetics using an Imax crown begins with an examination of the oral cavity. This allows the dentist to clarify the condition of the chewing elements and (if necessary) draw up a treatment plan. At the next stage, the tooth is prepared, which will serve as a support for the future crown.

Next actions:

  1. Taking an impression of the jaws. It is necessary for the manufacture of a denture in a dental laboratory
  2. Installation of a temporary structure. It provides comfort until the permanent crown is made
  3. Making a prosthesis. All-ceramic crown is completed within 2 weeks
  4. Installation. The finished crown is placed on the tooth. If necessary, the specialist will adjust it (this helps to provide the client with proper comfort and eliminate the likelihood of unpleasant sensations)

There are various ways to fix crowns. They are attached to natural teeth using dental cement or a primer. This approach allows for a strong and tight fit of the prosthesis. If it is mounted on an implant, the specialist uses an abutment - a special mount that ensures the reliability of the entire structure.

Cornet Care

Doctors recommend following these rules:

  1. Buy a soft-bristled toothbrush and a toothpaste for gentle cleaning
  2. Brush your teeth in the morning and evening, rinse your mouth with water after each meal
  3. Visit your dentist for regular check-ups every 6 months
  4. If you experience any unpleasant symptoms, contact a specialist immediately

If root damage is detected, ceramic crowns are removed for treatment. To maintain hygiene in hard-to-reach places, it is useful to use dental floss or an irrigator. Avoid excessively hard foods to avoid damaging the crowns. Mouthwash will help reduce the number of bacteria. Regularly monitor the condition of your gums and pay attention to possible changes in the color of the crowns.

Answers to popular questions

Dentists from K+31 in Moscow answered the most frequently asked questions about metal-free E-max.

How long do E-max crowns last?

Pressed ceramic overlays are known for their durability and aesthetics. They can last 10-15 years if oral hygiene is maintained and there is no mechanical damage.

Can E-max crowns cause discomfort?

Sometimes patients experience slight discomfort after installing E-max ceramic crowns, especially when touching or tapping. This is due to temporary tooth sensitivity or errors in fixing the overlay. If the sensation persists for more than a month, it is worth consulting a doctor.

What to do if sensitivity appears after installing E-max crowns?

If sensitivity bothers you for a long time after installing E-max ceramic crowns, it is recommended to contact a dentist for an examination. Possible causes may include improper installation of the crown or the onset of pulpitis. Depending on the diagnosis, the structures require correction or complete replacement.

Does bruxism affect the durability of E-max crowns?

Teeth grinding can negatively affect the service life of any dental crowns, including E-max. To protect the products and reduce the degree of wear, it is recommended to use night guards, as well as promptly treat bruxism.

The opinion of the doctors of the K+31 clinic on problems with inflammation

The dentists of the clinic emphasize the importance of diagnostics before installing Emax crowns, especially if root treatment has been carried out previously. The presence of inflammation at the root of the tooth indicates incorrect initial treatment of the canals or the subsequent occurrence of microcracks through which the infection penetrated under the crown.

I can't stand advertising - both listening to it and making it. And Sergey Georgievich doesn't need it. I'm more concerned about people who want to get rid of the rot in their mouth, the unpleasant odor, the gastritis caused by the same rot: if you need an adequate, professional surgeon who patiently explains the situation, offering possible alternatives, then drop all pseudo-important and important matters right now and run, run to S.G. immediately!! And finally, between you and me: if you've noticed even a hint of masochism in yourself, S.G. will disappoint you. Sincerely yours - Raf, who visited S.G.'s office with great pleasure only yesterday and left it with even greater pleasure.

I had my canals with inflammation treated under a microscope by this doctor. A complicated upper sixth. Everything went great! After 6 months, I can say that finally the tooth doesn't bother me. The doctor has a very light hand. Now I will only be treated by him.

I would like to express my deep gratitude to Alexey Andreevich and his assistant, unfortunately I forgot to clarify her name) They are simply masters of their craft, I have never had such pleasant visits to the dentist, absolute professionals in their field, they removed two wisdom teeth at once, I did not even notice how the process went. The doctor explained everything, answered all questions and gave recommendations, and the whole process took place during a pleasant conversation. I recommend everyone to contact only him!

As a patient, I can see the doctor's attention and attitude during the appointment and pain relief. What I saw was that Yukova M.R. is a responsible, attentive and caring doctor who helped me save a tooth from extraction. Today, during an appointment, another dentist-orthopedist in another clinic took a picture and praised the work and asked for contacts where and who treated this tooth. Top class! Thank you again!!!

Thank you very much to Dr. Omar for the parental happiness that the doctor gave us!... Where and to whom we took Maxim... We had hysterics, both our Maxim and we were under enormous stress. In other clinics, doctors sang songs to him, danced and showed him all kinds of cartoons, everything was useless. They only told us to do general anesthesia..... And now we get to Dr. Omar.... MAGIC!!!.... Maksimka leaves the doctor with her teeth cured and makes an appointment to meet again as soon as possible!.... So we cured all our teeth with a smile and great gratitude. Every week he asks to meet with the doctor, just to see if new holes have appeared there..... DOCTOR FROM GOD!!!.... I wish there were more such doctors, not only for children, but also for adults. With great respect and love, your regular clients clinics (Zaitsev sisters, Tatiana and Elena)
