Porcelain Laminate Veneers in Turkey

What Are Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are a dentistry treatment in which thin layers of material are placed over your teeth to improve their aesthetic appearance, protect them from damage, and maintain their functional properties. There are two main types of material used to make veneers; one is called composite, and the other is called dental porcelain.

What Are Porcelain Laminate Veneers?

Porcelain laminate veneers are wafer-thin shells (0.3-0.5 mm) made from dental porcelain. They are placed on the front surface of the teeth by trained dentists under clinical conditions. They are used mainly for aesthetic reasons; to improve a patient’s smile. However, they can also be applied to eliminate various dental problems.

Porcelain laminate veneers are bonded to the surface of the tooth, helping to achieve a natural shine and whiteness. Stains, yellowing and even fractures on the pre-treatment surface of the tooth are removed. As a result, the teeth have a smooth and natural appearance.

Porcelain Laminate Veneer Process

First things first, it is very important to choose a successful, expert and experienced dentist when considering any dental treatment, including dental veneer treatment.

If you choose Mastery Dental Clinic for your treatment, you can rest assured you will be in safe hands. You will be kept informed by our dentist at all stages of the process, and treatment is designed specifically according to your requirements.

Here is how the veneer application process works:

  •  Before the procedure, the area that the veneer will be applied to is numbed with a local anaesthetic, in order to provide a pain-free and comfortable treatment.
  • At the beginning of the procedure, a minor abrasion is made onto the front tooth surface to ensure that the porcelain laminate fits snugly and successfully when it is placed on your tooth. 
  •  A measurement is taken of your teeth and sent to the laboratory for processing, to produce your veneer
  • The veneers, which have been prepared according to your specific tooth measurements, are then bonded onto your teeth.
  • Under normal conditions, the bonded tooth can be used for fifteen years. In some cases, with proper use and good care, up to twenty years of use is possible.

After the procedure, you will be informed by your dentist about how to look after the veneer, what to pay attention to, and any additional steps to take. One common side effect is initial sensitivity to hot and cold food and drink, for a maximum of one week.

It will take a little time for the teeth to adapt to their new shape after the procedure. In the period following the treatment, it is necessary to avoid breaking and crushing hard foods with the teeth. And any bad habits such as opening bottle caps with the teeth – absolutely not!

Additionally, if you have any recurring problems such as clenching or grinding your teeth during sleep, you should inform your dentist before the procedure and act on their guidance.

The care procedure after getting porcelain laminate veneers is not much different from taking care of your natural teeth – you should keep brushing your teeth twice a day, and floss regularly.

FAQ

Porcelain laminate veneers are an aesthetic dental treatment applied to fix aesthetic and functional problems in the teeth, such as discolorations, gaps, and deformities.

Tooth decay is a problem that can be largely prevented by taking precautions to protect oral and dental health, such as brushing and flossing, and visiting the dentist at regular intervals. There is no direct correlation between getting laminate veneers on a tooth and tooth decay.

However, there is no relationship between bad breath and porcelain laminate veneers.

If someone is suffering from bad breath, the cause of this can be determined with a multidisciplinary approach. Bad breath can be caused by poor oral health and hygiene, or even stomach-related issues or other factors

If the tooth subject to the veneer procedure decays, you should consult your dentist immediately. The dentist will first remove the crown and then clean the decay in the tooth. After cleaning, the crown will be re-coated.

Firstly, the factor causing the tooth to wobble must be identified and treated. Only after this can laminate veneers successfully be applied to the tooth.
