Emax Veneers Vs Zirconia Veneers?

Zirconia can only be cemented, so they would be crowns and not veneers.  eMax CAN be bonded, so they can be more conservative, and are VERY strong.  They both will last about the same amount of time.

 

In MY office, I would be pushing for the eMax.  Zirconia looks too opaque, while eMax can be layered to look more natural.

If you are looking for more lifelike, natural and translucent restorations, then Emax is the best choice. These restorations are bonded into place so minimal preparation is needed. Zirconia is usually used for posterior crown restorations or for patients that are heavy grinders or clenchers.

In my opinion the EMAX is superior in every way. It is stronger and matches natural teeth better when fabricated by a qualified laboratory.

Emax would be your best option. They are much stronger and look much better than zirconium.  That would be my material of choice.

 

e.max is still the esthetic material of choice for veneers while also offering strength.  Zirconia restorations are very strong but they tend to be less life like and more opaque or chalky looking.  I would recommend e.max.
