E-Max crowns are not suitable for all people. To see if you are suitable for E-Max crowns, it is best to check with your dentist. Fitting an E-Max Crown I cannot say that there is no preparation, because there might be depending on the state of your teeth and the extended work that will be needed. However, in the majority of cases there is basically no tooth preparation. The only preparation will be to examination your tooth that needs to get the crown. Your tooth will be cleaned and then shaped with a small drill called a burr or known as a burr. Your dentist does that so that the tooth will be in a better condition and it will be ready for the crown fitting. There will not be a lot of tooth removed with the drill, but it all depends on the amount of damage your tooth has. If your tooth is very badly stained, there will be a lot more tooth removed. If you have very small teeth your dentist will probably not remove any, or as little as possible. After your dentist is done preparing, he or she will then need to make a mould of your teeth. Your dentist will make a mould with dental putty. The dentist will send the mould of your teeth to a dental lab where they will then make the E-Max crowns. You could get a temporary crown that you will need to wear for about 2 to 3 weeks until your E-Max crown or crowns are ready. Once your E-Max crown or crowns are ready, you will need to go back to the dentist for him or her to fit the crown or crowns. Once the crown or crowns are fitted, your dentist will check the shade of the crown or crowns to make sure that it is the shade it needs to be. The aim of that is to get the crowns as close to a normal, natural tooth color. When all that is done and finished, a final polish and clean will be done.
