Laminate porcelains are very thin ceramic materials used especially in the front group teeth. It is applied to people who are not satisfied with the
shape and color of their teeth, have broken, worn, overlapping teeth, and people who have gaps between their teeth called
diestema. The most important feature is the preparation of the teeth by making an average of 0.5 mm of abrasion on the front
surfaces of the teeth. Therefore, the porcelain made is very thin and fragile. However, research has shown that when trauma occurs to the tooth, the laminate porcelain and the tooth are not separated, even though the tooth
is broken.
Porcelain laminates are bonded to the tooth with a very special technique. So how does such a fragile and thin porcelain show such a strong structure? This is where the science-technical-art trio comes into play.
After laminate porcelain is bonded, it shows the same physical properties as tooth enamel. These are valid for
abrasion of the teeth, taking measurements, the production stages of the laminates and the porcelains whose bonding is prepared in a very sensitive and meticulous
manner. Otherwise, negative consequences may occur. Today
laminate porcelains are the last point of aesthetic dentistry among adhesive and bonding techniques.
In what cases is laminate treatment applied?
Laminate veneer coatings are basically used to eliminate color changes and certain conditions. They can be done to correct the shape
to some extent. The main application areas can be summarized as follows:
Advanced antibiotics,
fluoride, etc., which do not yield results in discolorations with methods such as bleaching (teeth whitening).
In hereditary structure and color disorders in stains,
In joining separated teeth (diastema closure)
In restoration of broken or worn teeth
In correcting old fillings with damaged color and structure
In correcting crooked and crooked teeth (orthodontic treatment). alternatively) can be a near-perfect cosmetic
alternative.
What are the advantages of laminate veneer?
Due to decay, abrasion, fracture or structural abnormalities, you can safely
br /> In cases where you cannot smile, it is possible to give your teeth a natural beauty with this method. prod. While previously fillings and full veneers were the only solutions in such negative situations, today new alternatives such as laminate
treatment are available.
Advantages of this new application;
A small application. A healthy and natural appearance is achieved with the intervention.
Just opening a slot the width of a fingernail in the tooth (which may not always be necessary) is sufficient.
They are produced from durable, color-fast and durable materials.
Without damaging the natural structure of the teeth. Having the desired aesthetic properties is only possible with laminate veneer
. Either no change is made on the tooth, or the result can be more perfect with a little correction. In fact, the amount removed from the tooth is limited to 0.3-0.7 mm.
Thus, there is no need to cut (reduce) any teeth.
The laboratory phase of the treatment is only 3-4 days. However, in smile design, it may take up to 3-4 weeks for your lips to adapt to your new appearance. During this adaptation period, we recommend some
lip exercises and reading. At the end of this period, you can easily smile with your new teeth, which are completely integrated with your face and
are completely unnoticeable as artificial.
A copy of the teeth that you are not happy with can be obtained and a design can be made on them. In other words, we can show you
the change that will be made in your teeth before any intervention is made on your teeth.
Since porcelain surfaces will be extremely smooth, it minimizes staining and tartar formation caused by smoking and similar reasons.
Coffee. It does not change color due to external factors such as tea, cigarettes or cigarettes. As a material, it is quite fragile. However, when it is fully bonded to the enamel, its resistance to tension and tensile
forces increases significantly. For example, it is not possible to completely remove a stuck veneer
from the tooth. However, it can be removed by abrasion from the tooth surface with diamond burs.
It has high resistance to abrasion.
What are the disadvantages of laminate veneer?
It has advantages in terms of health compared to other restorations. However, it is a slightly more
expensive system compared to others.
It is a sensitive technique. A good Requires clinical and laboratory studies. The physician and the dental technician must have complete technical knowledge and artistic ability on this subject.
