A dental veneer is a fixed prosthetic replacement that covers only the front surface of the tooth. It consists of a thin layer of ceramic, zirconia, or composite material, which is bonded to the tooth using special adhesive cements.
The primary purpose is usually to enhance aesthetics, whether it's improving the shape, color, or size of the tooth.
Here are some reasons why veneers are chosen for the front teeth:
Full porcelain crowns are highly aesthetic fixed prosthetic replacements for teeth, especially important in the anterior tooth region. The material is biocompatible, translucent, resistant to discoloration, and reflects light similarly to natural teeth, providing a completely natural appearance.
Zirconia oxide crowns are also highly aesthetic, biocompatible, extremely strong (stronger than porcelain), and have a long lifespan.
Both full porcelain and zirconia crowns are manufactured using CAD/CAM digital technology and a digital impression of your teeth (teeth are scanned with a dental scanner).
A beautiful, attractive, youthful, and confident smile is important for our well-being, quality of life, and self-esteem.
A prerequisite for teeth whitening is healthy teeth and gums. It is a process through which the brightness of teeth is increased to the desired level. Before whitening, it is necessary to remove dental plaque and surface stains on the teeth.
Hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide in various concentrations are used for teeth whitening. The gums and other soft tissues of the oral mucosa are adequately protected, and the gel with the mentioned active ingredients is applied to the teeth multiple times. UV light is used to activate the whitening agent. It is important to note that whitening agents will not whiten fillings or teeth with crowns, so in the case of whitening, it may be necessary to replace them to match the color of the newly whitened teeth.
