About this procedure
With the E-max veneer and crown system, the teeth are given the perfect shape and color. It is a technique that is popular among Hollywood stars.
Who is it for?
Suitable
- Individuals with deep staining or discoloration that cannot be corrected with simple whitening procedures
- Patients with minor tooth-shape flaws (chips, wear, uneven length) or small gaps
- Candidates with stable tooth and gum health, free of active decay or gum disease
- Adults who want to improve the overall harmony of the teeth visible when smiling
- Individuals with a minor degree of misalignment who do not need orthodontic treatment
- Patients with realistic expectations of the outcome — seeking a natural-looking, well-matched color and shape rather than an artificially perfect look
May not be suitable
- People with untreated active gum disease (periodontitis) or unhealed decay foci — the underlying condition must be treated first
- Patients with severe bruxism (teeth clenching/grinding) who are not willing to use a night guard — this shortens the lifespan of veneers
- Cases where the tooth's hard tissue is already weakened and not enough healthy tooth structure remains for a veneer
- People with severe misalignment or jaw discrepancy who need orthodontic treatment first
- Patients not willing to maintain consistent oral hygiene or to keep up with regular dental follow-ups
- Individuals under 18 whose jaw-facial development is not yet complete (except in cases of functional necessity)
Suitability is confirmed only at a doctor's examination. Results are individual.
The process step by step
- 1
Initial consultation and smile analysis(30-45 minutes)
The dentist evaluates the current color, shape, alignment, and gum line of the teeth. A digital smile design suited to the patient's facial structure may be presented.
- 2
Oral health assessment(1-2 visits)
If decay, gum inflammation, or other dental problems are found, these are treated before the veneer/crown procedure.
- 3
Tooth preparation(1-2 hours)
A minimal amount of tissue is removed from the tooth surface according to the chosen material (veneer or crown). For veneers, this is usually a very thin layer.
- 4
Color and shape selection, impression-taking(30-45 minutes)
The tooth color and shape are determined together with the patient, and a precise impression (analog or digital scan) is sent to the laboratory.
- 5
Placement of temporary teeth(1 visit)
Temporary veneers/crowns are applied to protect the prepared teeth while the laboratory work is being prepared.
- 6
Final fitting(1-2 hours)
The finished veneer/crown system is tried on, the color and shape are confirmed together with the patient, and it is then permanently bonded.
Recovery process
There may be temporary sensitivity to hot and cold foods and mild gum irritation. This usually resolves on its own.
Restriction: Avoiding very hot or very cold foods and drinks in the first few days is recommended.
The adaptation process to the new teeth continues during speaking and chewing. The gums gradually adjust around the new shape.
Restriction: Avoiding chewing very hard food (ice, hard nuts) and using the teeth to open objects is recommended.
The gum line fully stabilizes and sensitivity decreases significantly. A follow-up visit during this period can check the quality of the bonding.
Restriction: No special restrictions; daily eating gradually returns to normal.
The bite (the point where the jaws close) fully adapts, and the veneers/crowns become fully suited to daily use. A final follow-up visit establishes the long-term care plan.
Restriction: No special restrictions; regular dental follow-up is recommended.
Risks and transparency
Every surgical procedure carries risks. Transparency is the basis of trust for us.
- Temporary sensitivity to heat/cold — especially in the first few weeks
- The minimal tooth tissue removed for the veneer cannot be restored (an irreversible process)
- Risk of the veneer/crown chipping or coming off under excessive force (hard food, bruxism)
- Gum irritation or transient inflammation, especially during the adaptation period
- Need for bite (chewing contact) adjustment — additional correction may rarely be required
- Need for veneers/crowns to be replaced over time (typically within 10-15 years) — not a lifetime guarantee
- Without proper oral hygiene, the risk of decay or inflammation along the gum line continues
What does the price depend on?
- Chosen material — E-max, zirconia, or composite veneer
- Number of teeth to be treated
- Whether additional gum or decay treatment is required
- Laboratory quality and the technology used
- Dentist's experience and the number of visits
Frequently asked questions
How much does Hollywood Smile cost, and what does the price depend on?
The price varies depending on the chosen material (E-max, zirconia, etc.), the number of teeth to be treated, and the laboratory quality. An exact price can only be given after an in-person consultation and oral examination — you can book a free consultation for this.
Is Hollywood Smile painful?
Local anesthesia is applied during tooth preparation when needed, so no pain is felt during the process. In the following days there may be temporary sensitivity to hot/cold, which gradually decreases on its own.
How long do veneers last?
With quality materials and proper care, veneers usually last 10-15 years, sometimes longer. Lifespan depends on oral hygiene, bruxism habits, and regular dental follow-up — it is not presented as a permanent solution.
What is the difference between a veneer and a crown?
A veneer is a thin layer that covers only the front surface of the tooth and requires minimal tissue removal. A crown covers the entire tooth and is usually chosen when the tooth is more heavily damaged or weakened.
Is Hollywood Smile the same as teeth whitening?
No. Teeth whitening lightens the color of existing teeth chemically without changing their shape. Hollywood Smile, through veneers/crowns, is a more comprehensive process that changes color, shape, and the appearance of alignment.
Can decay still occur after veneers are placed?
Yes, a veneer does not fully replace the tooth itself — the natural tooth tissue remaining along the gum line can still decay. This is why regular brushing, flossing, and dental follow-up are important.
How many visits does the process take?
It usually requires 2-4 visits, including consultation, tooth preparation, the temporary-teeth period, and final bonding. The duration of laboratory preparation also affects the overall process.
Is it suitable for people with bruxism (teeth clenching)?
Severe bruxism increases the risk of veneers chipping and wearing out prematurely. In this case, using a night guard is recommended and is discussed separately during the consultation.
From what age can it be done?
It is generally recommended after age 18, once jaw-facial development is complete. Before that, a separate assessment can be made only if there is a functional necessity.
Can the new teeth become stained over time?
Quality veneer materials (such as E-max, zirconia) are more stain-resistant than natural teeth, but complete resistance to staining is not guaranteed. Factors like tea, coffee, and smoking can affect the appearance over time.
Can a person with gum disease get Hollywood Smile?
If active gum disease is present, this problem must be treated first. Veneer/crown placement can only be planned once the gums have been brought to a healthy state.
