Veneers are thin layers bonded to the front surface (lip side) of the teeth for aesthetic purposes. In the past, crowns were often used more frequently for aesthetic corrections, although other options also existed. However, the main disadvantage of that method was that the dentist had to grind down a large portion of the tooth. Today’s veneers represent a much less invasive and more aesthetic solution: the dentist can reshape teeth so that the result looks highly natural and blends harmoniously with the surrounding teeth. The veneers ensure not only bright white teeth, which you have always wanted.
Veneers can be divided into two groups based on the way they are made. One is a direct veneer that is sculpted on your teeth and the other is the indirect veneer made in a dental laboratory. Let’s see what the main features are.
Direct or composite veneers are light-cured. The direct veneers are made by the dentist in the dental office within one treatment session. There is no need for a diagnostic cast. It is typically cheaper to make direct veneers, but they are less durable and slightly lower quality.
Indirect, or porcelain veneers, require longer preparation. Before fitting, you need a consultation or other treatments, a diagnostic cast and laboratory work as well. However, thanks to the dental technology used, the construction is much more precise, and the effect is more natural. The Lumineers are transparent coatings made of 0.5 mm-thick porcelain ceramic that do not need to be polished – this is an American brand. Conventional veneers are 1 mm thin, depending on the level of grinding, and typically placed on the front teeth, especially incisors and canines. E-max veneers are usually about 0.3–0.8 mm thin, while crowns can be significantly thicker.
made from high-strength ceramic materials such as porcelain or lithium disilicate. Veneers have an excellent transparency and therefore look like natural teeth. In addition, the all-ceramic shells are completely free of metals
In many cases, 4 veneers are only sufficient for a limited aesthetic area. Rarely 6, usually 8 Veneers are enough for an average mouth per row of teeth, 10 for a wider mouth.
Depending on the smile line and tooth position, 8-10 veneers per jaw may be sufficient for a complete smile design.
If the gum line is uneven or receding, gum correction may be necessary before veneers for the best aesthetic outcome. This is how we achieve an aesthetically pleasing result.
No, before grinding down, the patient receives a local anesthetic injection
The life span of the ceramic shells is 10-15 years, depending on how well ones takes care of them. Since they are made of porcelain, they are extremely durable.
They need the same good care as natural teeth, since beneath the shell the teeth can still get caries. Good oral hygiene is especially important: cleaning your teeth twice a day, flossing them and of course a dental check-up twice a year. That is how we avoid development of caries and gingivitis. The latter is particularly important, because gingivitis can cause receding gums over the years, due to which the outer line of the shells may become visible. In such cases, a replacement may become necessary, even if the fixing is still strong and there are no damages or cracks. By cleaning your teeth twice a day thoroughly and using cleansing solutions against dental plaque, you can maintain the shells intact and undamaged for a much longer period.
Nail biting and teeth grinding can damage the veneers. Therefore you should get rid of these bad habits and acquire a dental night guard for teeth grinding. This help prevent the harmful consequences of teeth grinding while sleeping.
Unfortunately, the answer is no, you cannot fully go back to your original teeth after getting traditional veneers. This is because the procedure usually involves removing a thin layer of enamel from your teeth to make space for the veneers. This enamel doesn’t grow back.
The Veneers need to be replaced when they wear out, but this is often more than 10 years. With proper dental care, this time can be significantly extended.
The placement of a so called shell or several shells generally needs two sessions. A consultation and preparation takes place during the first appointment. In the second session the dentist places the finished work on the tooth – or teeth, since more teeth can be treated at once.
