As a side effect of most of my teeth are yellow, the dentist proposed both emax and zirconia preferring emax due to its natural look but after a few thoughts she was afraid that because emax is al.ost transparent the deep yellow stains it might be visible on outside. I also forgot to mention that I grind my teeth a lot. Planning to do 18 teeth, which option would be the best for me? Thanks in advance.

Answer: Emax vs zirconia I recommend zirconia is grinders for it's strength. But Emax is more esthetic and can be bonded to the teeth decreasing the chance of it coming off. As far as translucency, either option should be able to mask the discoloration of your natural teeth.

Answer: Emax vs Zirconia Can't go wrong with Emax in your case. The material is very strong and will hold up with your bruxism habit. In addition, the material can be layered to give a highly esthetic look. Important to decide on a color that you want with your veneers first though and relay that to the dentist so the final result meets your expectation. With your 'yellow' starting color, the dentist will have to account for the change of color necessary by altering his preparation depth as needed at the time of treatment.
