Dental Veneers
Often, dental veneers are employed in situations of aesthetic dental concerns. According to the American Dental Association, veneers are thin, custom-made shells composed of tooth-colored materials meant to cover the front of the teeth. Particularly when the front teeth are aesthetically undesirable, Emax porcelain veneers can be used to achieve the ideal and natural appearance. Veneers can be created from many materials including composite or Emax porcelain veneer, so please keep this in mind. Our Istanbul clinic solely uses Emax porcelain veneers since they are long-lasting, natural-looking, and stain-free.

Laminate veneer ? Full Veneer?
Alright. First, let's define the Veneer. Shaped like a cover for your teeth, veneers are synthetic porcelain shells. Designed to be translucent, these laminate veneer shells will reflect the light to provide a natural appearance. Moreover, they are robust and tightly connected with the tooth top surface. Therefore, it is quite resistant to fractures or shattering.
Laminate Veneers are sometimes like a shell over your teeth and sometimes like a cover around your complete tooth, which is then called dental crowns or full veneers, as we have said previously. Fashion Nails are a more clear comparison for Laminate Veneers. Fashion Nails are thin, attached to your natural nails, and offer great appearance. In dentistry, laminate veneers are the fashion nails. The key distinction is that Fashion Nails at most last one month. By comparison, a laminate veneer is a long-term investment made possible by the endurance of the materials and cutting-edge technologies employed.
Could I qualify for a laminate veneer procedure in Turkey?
When it comes to Laminate Veneers, two main factors define eligibility. First, we should examine the general health status and location of your teeth. The second factor is whether or whether you grind your teeth. Many people go years without realizing they grind their teeth at night. Grinding is bad for natural teeth as well as Laminate Veneers. Under these circumstances, our staff really advises you to get CAD/CAM Zirconium Crown treatments or a Full Veneer. Though a nightguard—also known as mouth guard—may be recommended, Porcelain Laminate Veneer is feasible in certain moderate grinding situations.
Laminate Veneers may also be used just on the front teeth—10 bottom and 10 upper. For far more durability and strength, dental crowns—preferably Zirconium Crowns—should cover back teeth (molars).
In Turkey, Dental Crowns, what distinguishes laminate veneers from full veneers?
Some people are perplexed about the distinctions between Laminate Veneers and Full Veneers.
Veneers are like a thin leaf made of composite, porcelain, or similar material bonded on the upper surface of the original teeth. Conversely, Full Veneers or Dental Crowns cap or encircle the full tooth. Although dental crowns are for cosmetic reasons as well as normal dental treatment when the tooth is fractured, worn down, or has big fillings, veneers are purely for aesthetic reasons.
The treatment's teeth filing down is the key distinction. Should a dental crown be required, the tooth is filed down to accommodate it. Depending on your tooth structure, Veneer treatment may allow for Laminate Veneers with a little touch to the teeth or perhaps no preparation of the natural teeth. Minimally invasive dentistry is the name of this technique. The Maltepe Dental Clinic team always aims for the least invasive dentistry since we feel it is our ethical and moral duty to preserve the original tooth as much as possible.
Patients also misinterpret the appearance of dental crowns. Most of the patients believe Laminate Veneers to be more aesthetically pleasing than dental crowns. Actually, it's only a misunderstanding. Since making a dental crown is a considerably simpler and more direct procedure, most of the dental labs can perform dental crowns but not Laminate Veneers. To obtain an appealing and ideal outcome in Dental Crowns or Full Veneers, nevertheless, more work and artistic touches are required. Dental crowns can thus be as aesthetically pleasing as laminate veneers. Thus, not every lab can make dental crowns aesthetically pleasing. That is the reason we maintain an in-house laboratory. Working like artists, our knowledgeable ceramists are the finest in Istanbul and provide the most beautiful Dental Crowns, Full Veneers, and Porcelain Laminate Veneers.
Veneers made of composite
Compared to the porcelain veneers, Composite Veneers have certain cosmetic and durability drawbacks. To begin with, composite veneers are susceptible to fading. As a result, rigorous aftercare and regular teeth cleaning are necessary.
The second drawback is visual. Composite veneers lack the artistic quality of porcelain veneers. The composite material is opaque and does not let the light pass through. So, especially depending on the hue you select, composite veneers could seem phony. Durability is the third drawback of composite veneers. Composite veneers are more prone to shatter and chip off.
Given all the drawbacks, why do certain patients choose composite veneers? Two justifications: First, in some nations, porcelain veneers are quite expensive as compared to the price of Composite Veneers. This comparison does not apply in Turkey. Here, porcelain veneers are already reasonably priced.
The second benefit might be the relevance of composite veneers without tooth filing. On the other hand, Porcelain Laminate Veneers can likewise do this.
Porcelain laminate veneers
Let's keep discussing the benefits of porcelain laminate veneers. Being translucent, porcelain laminate veneers are more attractive than Composite Veneers. Being a long-lasting substance, porcelain makes Porcelain Veneers more robust. A lesser danger of breakage and chipping off comes from using a high-quality bonding material such as 3M©. Porcelain Laminate Veneers also keep the original hue for years without any discolouration.
Most countries find porcelain laminate veneers to be quite pricey as they need considerable laboratory effort and artistic touches to provide the natural and appealing appearance. Our office, on the other hand, can help you save as much as 70% on treatment for Porcelain Laminate Veneers.
E.max© Laminated Veneers
Cosmetic dentistry features several brands of laminate veneers. Since E.max© Laminate Veneers is the most durable and aesthetically pleasing material in cosmetic dentistry, Maltepe Dental Clinic employs them. The brand is EMAX. Vita Sprutiny or GC Veneers are also available. Our ceramists' material knowledge, however, suggests E.max© Laminate Veneers as the optimal choice.
CEREC Varnishes
Veneers can be made by handmade or by the CAD/CAM machines. At the clinic, CEREC is a CAD/CAM equipment generating Laminate Veneers. Dentists usually choose this technology in the absence of ceramist at the clinic. So, if a clinic is promoting CEREC Veneers, be sure to inquire about their ceramist and in-house lab providing the final touches to the Laminate Veneers following CEREC machine manufacture.
Our clinic appreciates the ceramist's input on the E.max© Laminate Veneers since it is required to obtain an aesthetic outcome. Thus, we apply the E.max press technology for Laminate Veneers since it offers the ceramist the greatest freedom to attain aesthetic perfection.
Non-prep Veneers and Dental Lumineers
You likely also read about non-prep veneers and Dental Lumineers. Like Veneers, Dental Lumineers can be porcelain or composite. Though a bit thinner, dental Lumineers are a kind of laminate veneer. They are as little as a contact lens. Lumineers are also referred to as non-prep veneers. Nonprep refers to no tooth filing. Though every patient cannot benefit from it because of varying tooth form and lip location, this seems like a great concept as everyone wants to have a lovely smile without harming the natural teeth. Talk to our staff about your suitability for Lumineers or non-prep Veneers. Our clinic's first pick for Dental Lumineers is EMAX material. Durability becomes a concern since Lumineers is thinner and more delicate. E.max© technology and high-quality bonding materials help Lumineers to be glued strongly to the teeth.
How Many Laminate Veneers Will Sufficiently Alter My Smile?
A whole set of Laminate Veneers in Turkey may not be required if you wish to have a good smile. We want to design smiles using as few Laminate Veneers as possible. Occasionally, two veneers will significantly alter the grin. Occasionally, in order to get a Hollywood smile, we advise a complete set of Laminate Veneers—20 porcelain Veneers. Your expectations also influence the amount of Veneers required. Should you like to broaden your grin and modify the hue of your teeth to a whiter tone like a Hollywood smile, we may have to use Laminate Veneers on all the teeth visible when smiling.
May I Choose The Color ?
Some patients question whether they may choose the hue they choose during Laminate Veneer therapy in Turkey. Yes, it is. Starting with unnatural white hues (snow white) to darker natural hues, the Laminate Veneers have a wide color scale. Our ceramists can change the hue you choose as well. Making whiter color Veneers is a simpler process than making natural color Veneers. Our ceramists like creating E.max© Laminate Veneers for this reason since EMAX material provides excellent natural hues.
What Technology Laminate Veneers in Turkey?
We will be truthful with you regarding the technological contribution to prepare the Laminate Veneers. First, we must reemphasize that Laminate Veneer treatment is the labor of dentistry. It is done for looks. Though the lab technician contributes most to the appearance of the Laminate Veneers in Turkey, we are using the best technology creating Laminate Veneers. When it comes to art, sadly, technology still lags behind men's skill. Just as no technological innovation can replace the work of Salvador Dali or Leonardo Da Vinci, so too for the Laminate Veneers. So, when you contrast the work of the clinics, we strongly advise against falling into the trap of technological comparison. Having the correct technology to manufacture Veneers at a clinic or lab does not automatically guarantee that the outcome will be the same or better.
Unlike most dental labs, our in-house lab is boutique and caters only to our patients' cosmetic and dental needs. A perfect and elegant outcome is unattainable without the artistic touches of our lab technicians. Ultimately, what counts is the ceramists' and dentists' hands, not the technology.
How Long Will A Laminate Veneer Last?
Our office creates E.max© Laminate Veneers using Ivoclar EMAX material. Known to be the most durable material for Laminate Veneers, EMAX Should you not be grinding your teeth, you can look forward to a long-lasting grin.
Veneers vs. teeth whitening: what's the difference?
Imagine your smile has cosmetic problems. In that situation, teeth whitening is the first answer that springs to mind as it is more affordable than other treatments including laminate veneer and complete veneer procedures.
Before discussing the variations between teeth whitening and veneers, let us first understand more about teeth whitening. Applied when the patient has stained teeth, teeth whitening—also known as laser teeth bleaching—is Many people view it as a more affordable, less invasive, short-term fix than expensive veneer treatments.
Using laser whitening technology, a chemical interaction between the bleaching substance and the tooth causes teeth whitening. For teeth whitening therapy, Maltepe Dental Clinic (MDC) employs the newest laser-whitening technology and USA brand Opalescence® chemical agent.
Whitening methods affect each patient's teeth differently and at various degrees. Some stains are simpler to treat than others. Yellow or brown teeth are simpler to whiten than grey or blue ones. Put another way, the whitening technique cannot be adjusted for degree of whitening. Sometimes teeth whiten as much as 3-4 shades; other times, just half shade.
Teeth whitening is affordable as you can tell, however the wanted hue cannot be chosen and it lasts around one year. You must then whiten your teeth once more. Moreover, it can only be used on particular stains and color changes. It also leaves the tooth form unchanged.
Veneer treatment could be an option if you want to modify the contour of your teeth or have a certain color need. Naturally, the budget is also quite important. Given the economic concern, we strongly advise visiting our price comparison pages since for many situations coming to Turkey for dental veneers could be a more affordable choice.
All of these elements taken together will help you to choose a reasonably priced long-term solution that will make you happy in every sense of the word.
Our list of discussing the advantages and disadvantages of both treatments could benefit you if you view teeth whitening as a substitute for veneers.
