E-Max Crowns


The dental field is constantly changing. New technology, instruments, techniques, and more are being developed every day and all with the patient in mind.  One of the newest advances in the field is the implementation of E-max crowns.  More aesthetically pleasing than traditional porcelain fused to metal crowns, E-max crowns are also harder and more durable than other all porcelain crowns. 

Each E-max crown is carved from a block of lithium disicilate ceramic which is a material known for its toughness, durability, and opaque qualities.  The probability of a crown fracturing is significantly less with this new material.  This material is considered to be the best match to natural teeth color. The lifelike shape and all ceramic body of the crown also add to the appeal of an E-max crown.

Overall, E-max crowns are more durable and more aesthetically pleasing than crowns made of other materials.  They are also available for the one visit crowns, saving our patients time and money.
