Porcelain as thin as a leaf!!!
Laminate veneer coating (leaf porcelain coatings) is one of the most preferred restoration applications in aesthetic dental surgery. Laminate literally means thin layer, veneer means coating. When we translate it into Turkish, it means thin coating, and it also has a discourse in our country as laminated teeth. Veneers are generally applied in excessive discoloration that cannot be changed with tooth whitening, in correcting the appearance of split teeth (diestema), in teeth with worn and deformed surfaces, and in teeth that are broken and damaged to a certain extent. Its construction is; After the tooth surfaces are thinned a certain amount, measuring continues and the desired shape and color teeth are produced. Laminate coating is attached to the surface of the tooth with a resin-based adhesive and an aesthetic appearance is obtained. This veneer method is generally used to restore the upper teeth in the front. Tooth suitability for use on the lower jaw or other tooth surfaces is determined as a result of doctor control.
What are the advantages of laminated tooth?
In cases where you cannot smile confidently due to caries, abrasions, fractures or structural anomalies, it is possible to give your teeth a natural beauty with this method. While fillings and full coatings were the only solution in such adverse situations in the past, there are new alternatives such as laminate treatment today. The advantages of this new application;
– A healthy and natural appearance is achieved in a very short time with a small intervention,
– Just a nail-wide slot in your tooth (which may not always be necessary) is sufficient,
– They are produced from durable, colorfast and durable materials.
– It is only possible with laminate veneer for your teeth to have the aesthetic properties you want without deteriorating their natural structure. Either no change is made on the tooth or with a little correction, the result can be more perfect. The amount removed from the tooth is already limited to 0.3-0.7 mm. Thus, there is no need to cut (reduce) any teeth.
– The laboratory stage of treatment is only 3-4 days. However, in smile design, it may take 3-4 weeks for your lips to adapt to your new look at the end of this period. We recommend some lip exercises and reading during this alignment. At the end of this period, you can easily smile with your new teeth that are completely integrated with your face and cannot be detected as artificial.
