Main Article Content
Abstract
Background: In Vietnam, currently Emax porcelain material has been put into clinical use, but there have not been many studies. Objective: To evaluate the results of permanent restoration of anterior upper jaw teeth using Emax porcelain veneers at Cu Chi Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, from 2022 to 2023. Materials and methods: a cross-sectional descriptive study on a total of 30 patients with a total of 74 of anterior upper jaw teeth assigned to prosthetics. Results: The most common reason for prosthetics was tooth decay, 56.8%; The number of teeth restored in the right maxillary anterior tooth was 54.1%, the left one was 45.9%. Immediately after restoration, 100% of the teeth were evaluated as good in terms of aesthetics and function. However, when re-examination after 7 days, there was 1 tooth with clear cracks and 1 tooth with restorations. After 1 and 3 months of fitting teeth, in terms of aesthetics: 100% of teeth had good fit, retention and restoration durability; 100% teeth were not discolored and the gum line was very harmonious; In terms of function: all teeth had a normal bite, chewing ability was good, the contact between the prosthetic tooth and the adjacent tooth was also good and 100% of the normal opposing teeth were not worn due to restorations. Conclusions: The technique of using porcelain veneers on anterior teeth has many advantages and is highly regarded by both doctors and patients for its effectiveness. However, a longer follow-up period is needed to comprehensively evaluate the results of Emax porcelain veneers on the permanent anterior teeth in the upper jaw
