ZIRCONIUM
Nowadays, metal-supported porcelain, which has been used for many years to coat teeth with crowns, is now being replaced by porcelain with zirconium substructure. Zirconium coatings provide a much more aesthetic appearance than old metal coating applications due to their ability to pass light.
In addition, zirconium coatings have a very good compatibility with the gums. Unlike metal-backed coatings, they certainly do not cause gum disease or an allergic problem. Zirconium is a white alloy instead of metal, zirconium is used as the substrate in porcelain with zirconium infrastructure. Zirconium-based porcelain is both natural and aesthetic enough to be used on the front teeth, and resistant enough to be used on the back teeth. Therefore, zirconium-based porcelain can be safely preferred on the front and back teeth.
.
WHY SHOULD BE PREFERRED?
Due to the light transmission properties of zirconium-based porcelain, a complete harmony with natural teeth can be achieved. Thanks to this, an excellent aesthetic result can be achieved.
Since there is no metal reflection underneath, the artificial image seen on porcelain with metal substrates is definitely not formed.
Gum harmony is much better than porcelain with a classic metal bottom. Gingival discolorations, which are common in porcelain with metal substrates, are absolutely invisible in zirconium.
It is not allergic, as it is a 99 percent tissue-friendly material. It is more advantageous in terms of overall body health than metal-supported prostheses.
Since the heat insulation property is very good, they conduct less heat to the tooth than porcelain with a metal substrate. Thanks to this, no hot and cold sensitivity occurs on the teeth where zirconium-based porcelain is applied.
Thanks to their high resistance of 900-1200 mega pascals, they can also be safely used on the teeth in the back areas. Along with being so strong, they are also elegant and aesthetic enough to pass the light.
Since it has the ability to mask the color of the teeth from below, aesthetic results can be achieved even on very dark teeth.
They are produced with a fairly precise operation, so they fit perfectly to the cut tooth surface. Muscle decays due to the fact that there is no gap between zirconium porcelain and the tooth where bacteria can leak, it does not allow caries to form between them.
They are healthy materials that do not cause impaired sense of taste in the mouth, gum problems and bad breath.
They can be safely used on both the front and back teeth.

LEAF PORCELAIN
Laminates are very thin porcelain that can be applied especially on the front group of teeth. Strengthening the physical properties of porcelain has allowed them to be made much thinner. Today’s dentistry brings to the forefront restorative procedures that require less tissue loss with a more conservative approach. Porcelain laminates are restorations that can be performed with little or often no preparation from the dental tissue. The fact that the color permeability of the laminates glued using special adhesives is very good ensures that aesthetically excellent results are obtained.
The fact that laminates are healthy, durable and have very good color stability has made them a very common restorative option today. Laminates, which are produced very thinly, are obtained by precise techniques. This ensures that its compatibility with the teeth and surrounding tissues is excellent.
How is leaf porcelain made?
Firstly, the models of the teeth are obtained by taking measurements from the person who decided to apply leaf porcelain. Imitations of leaf porcelain are produced on these models and sample application is made in the mouth. In this way, a person can see how to achieve an aesthetic result in 3D before any operations are performed on their teeth. In addition, the acclaimed models can be applied to the mouth, allowing the patient to try for several days. After that, the harmony of the teeth with the face is checked, the ideal smile and appearance suitable for the face are determined with the necessary etching and additions.

SMILE DESIGN AND DIGITAL PLANNING
A smile design, as the name implies, is a design that is specially prepared for a person. If the design of the smile is not prepared specifically for the person, it is hardly possible to talk about aesthetics. At the same time, there are always people with the same teeth as each other. For this reason, studies such as color selection, model study, aesthetic plan, gum aesthetics are performed specifically for people. Thanks to these works, a real artistic work appears, and the person’s smile becomes special to him. Our most important assistant in these studies is digital planning. The work of digital planning begins with a photo shoot, and all records of the person are taken on a computer environment. The design is carried out with the help of a special program on the received records. Several alternative studies are carried out, modeling is performed on the person’s photo, as if the teeth were made. By looking at these studies, the patient and the physician together decide which model and which color will be. In this way, no surprise results are encountered.

TEETH WHITENING BY BLEACHING
A teeth whitening method (bleaching) is a method performed with some special medications that are used to change the color of teeth that have changed color for various reasons by several shades.
