An E.max crown restores a tooth with a ceramic crown that looks as natural as possible.
We recommend it when aesthetics come first: colour, translucency and a tooth that looks like your own, with no compromise.
Our doctor assesses the tooth, your bite and the load, and explains whether this crown suits your case or whether another type is the better choice.

This crown does not suit every case.
We may recommend another option if:
In such situations we more often recommend zirconia or metal ceramic crowns.
| Criterion | Metal ceramic crown | Zirconia crown | E.max crown |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strength | High | Very high | High |
| Appearance | Neat | Very natural | Very natural |
| Suitable for chewing teeth | Yes | Yes | Limited |
| Suitable for the smile zone | Limited | Yes | Yes |
| Contains metal | Yes | No | No |
| Risk of a dark line at the gum | Possible | No | No |
| Service life | Many years | Many years | Many years |
| Cost | The most affordable | Higher | Higher |
The crown repeats the colour, translucency and shape of your own teeth.
The standard crown is a ceramic restoration with a natural look. It suits teeth in the smile zone under a standard load.
The crown with enhanced aesthetics has additional hand-finished work on shades, translucency and detail, for the closest possible match with your own teeth.
We examine the tooth, take an image and assess whether the tooth suits this crown.
You get a clear treatment plan, the timing and the expected result at once.
We shape the tooth carefully.
We check that the base is stable enough for a ceramic crown.
We take impressions for the laboratory.
While the permanent crown is being made, you wear a temporary one, which keeps you comfortable and keeps your smile looking normal.
We fix the finished crown on the tooth.
We check your bite, comfort and aesthetics, so that the tooth looks and works naturally.
Preparation and impressions fit into one visit.
The laboratory then needs a few days to make the crown.
We give the exact timing after the examination.
