HEALTHY TEETH INCREASE SELF-CONFIDENCE

Attractive, healthy teeth indicate the quality of life, make us more confident in ourselves. A happy smile is the most natural right of every person. This is also one of the most important parts of our daily lives. Self-esteem also plays a big role for our social environment and psychology. According to the common opinion of dentists in Istanbul; it looks expensive, although porcelain veneers and laminates, beautiful and aesthetic stance, that it protects our teeth from further damage as well as actually a very viable alternative.

CREATES BEAUTIFUL SMILES

Laminates are fine particles made of porcelain or resin materials that are glued to your front teeth. For broken, colored, crossed, intermittent, turned or somehow disfigured teeth, these veneers can create permanent and beautiful smiles that will last for years. Laminates are popular options for people who want perfect smiles, as they are difficult-to-color materials.

There are two types of veneers.

Porcelain (indirect) veneers are made exclusively in the laboratory and you need to go to your doctor at least twice. it can be used for up to 10-15 years. Porcelain veneers, which are more expensive than their alternatives, are options that can offer more precise and realistic color harmony with the side teeth.

Composite (direct) veneers, on the other hand, are restorations performed by gluing composite resin to your teeth in one session. Composite veneers have a lower cost, but they often have to be repeated or replaced with a porcelain version.

.
THERE IS A CHANCE TO CHECK

Before being laminated, your dentist must first determine if you are a good candidate for veneers by taking the necessary diagnostic records (such as measurement, closing record, digital photo). It is possible to create your teeth with porcelain on their original models, the ideal aesthetic shape of the candle should be created, what can be done should be seen and it should be decided how much substance should be removed from the tooth according to this ideal wax model. Then the teeth are numbed, cut, measured and temporary veneers are made.

There are many advantages to making temporary coatings. The patient gets a chance to eat, laugh and check if he is comfortable during the conversation by wearing a rougher version of the restoration that will be performed in the finale. If he is not comfortable, he will have a chance to correct and make changes before making the final version. Within a few weeks, the laminates are glued to the tooth, polished and given their final form.

.
WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF PORCELAIN VENEERS?

One of the biggest advantages is that there is little interference with the teeth thanks to porcelain laminates. Thanks to this, the shortening of the working time causes the patients to relax.

A natural appearance is achieved due to the fact that it has a light transmission.

Various color options are available. It fits perfectly at the junction of the tooth and gum.

.
IT IS RESISTANT TO ABRASION

The reflection at the edge of the gum that occurs in porcelain bridges with metal support does not occur in laminated porcelain.

Since there are no separate sessions such as metal proofing, polishing, zirconium, infrastructure proofing, the total treatment time takes a short time. The proofing of laminated porcelain is carried out in polished form. Since the polishing process is carried out in high-grade porcelain furnaces, it is resistant to abrasion. It is not affected by substances such as tea, coffee, cigarettes, as well as dental calculus does not form on it.

.
IT IS INDIVIDUAL

These aesthetic restorations are made from molds produced from the size taken by your dentist (or a model produced with digital technology and 3D printers) in a special color and shape for you. The reason they are expensive is because there is no mass production.

In addition to the cost of the material, the final price that a dentist will charge the patient depends on the design, between and intraoral application. This is a process that requires time, attention and skill.

Removing as much tooth tissue as the patient wants requires great skill and precision; excess solid tissue should not be removed. Making teeth too small can increase retention and hot-cold sensitivity.

.
GIVES CLEAR INFORMATION FOR THE APPEARANCE AFTER TREATMENT

The digital technology system treats the treatment procedure as follows: First of all, the dentist meticulously cleans the carious or damaged area and prepares the tooth. Then, with the help of a digital technology system camera, it takes a 3D image of your tooth and sends the data to the computer. The dentist designs the filling or crown to be formed from a ceramic block, and the digital technology milling system produces this design. Digital dentistry also offers many possibilities for aesthetic treatment.

Thanks to digital dentistry in Turkey, it is possible to shorten the treatment times and reduce the number of sessions in aesthetic treatments as well as in other treatments. The biggest advantage of digital dentistry in aesthetic treatments is that it provides clear information about how the patient will look after the treatment. Thanks to this, patients are able to choose their appearance before starting treatment. The changes we made together with the patient on the three-dimensional image on the screen are reflected directly in the restorations that will be produced. After the treatment, we can take images of the patient again and show him how close we are to the appearance we chose together before the treatment.

HOW HAPPY CAN WE LAUGH AS A SOCIETY?

Do we have the teeth to laugh happily? We often encounter people who have advanced caries in their mouth because they don’t pay attention to their dental health, or who feel the need to close their mouth with their hand while laughing due to dental problems. So, what can Turkish dentists do to solve such problems? What treatment opportunities do emerging digital technologies offer for patients?

There are many treatment options that are done to solve such problems with our teeth. Some of these are surgical interventions or orthodontic treatments with braces in Turkey. But these can also sometimes not make our smile beautiful. This situation is not a problem without a solution. Digital technologies are catching up with the help of dentists and patients in such situations.

.
IT ENDS IN 45 MINUTES

Technological progress has also rapidly entered dentistry, so much so that it is enough to move our camera around the teeth to take an image from the inside of the mouth. After about 8-10 minutes of operation, we produce the patient’s tooth and finish the treatment of one tooth within 45 minutes. The digital technology system provides long-lasting and aesthetic treatment opportunities in a single session. Digital technology system is a computer-aided application that is performed for all ceramic fillings, crowns and veneers in just one appointment.
