Veneers(Laminate)
In order to eliminate the colour, shape, size and position defects of the teeth caused by various reasons or congenital, the teeth in the smile line are abraded with porcelain on the front surface and coated with the most suitable porcelain type for the patient. In this process, unlike other types of veneers, teeth can be applied only on the front surface, sometimes even without abrasion.
Laminates, also known as leaf porcelain, are generally designed in 0.3 to 0.7 mm thickness. It is possible to achieve the Hollywood smile technique with porcelain laminates. It is one of the most aesthetic appearance and frequently preferred treatment methods among porcelain coating types.
Laminated teeth and porcelain, full ceramic teeth have the same material. The only difference in laminate is that it is an aesthetic dental system that is adhered to the front surface of the tooth in the form of false nails and does not touch the back of the tooth in any way.
When we look at how long the laminated tooth life is, the routine care you will do for your normal teeth is necessary for your laminated teeth. When you pay attention to your oral and dental hygiene when you comply with the necessary boards, the life of your tooth is up to 10-15 years.
With minor interventions, a natural and healthy appearance is achieved in a very short time. It is supplied from robust, durable and colourfast materials. Since the light transmittance is very close to natural teeth, a highly natural appearance can be obtained. Since the entire tooth is not cut, it prevents the loss of too much material in the tooth.
Laminate treatment is not a suitable method for some people. Especially people with nail biting habits, swallowing disorders or jaw disorders should stay away from the laminated method. If these people want to laminate, first of all, such problems should be treated. In addition, since there will be very little filling in laminated teeth, it cannot be applied on teeth that have previously undergone coating treatment such as porcelain, zirconium. For a good porcelain laminate treatment, you should have a solid enamel tissue on your teeth.
Laminated teeth made of the highest quality ceramic retain their color and brightness. They are not affected by cigarettes, tea, coffee, etc. A yellowing that occurs can only be caused by the yellowing of the tooth as a result of the loss of vitality of a tooth.
