Porcelain veneer

What is porcelain veneer?

Porcelain veneers are an advanced technology in the field of dentistry and are an excellent cosmetic method to improve the shape and color of teeth. Veneer is a thin ceramic layer made from high-quality porcelain or composite that is glued directly to the surface of the tooth in a natural way. Specially designed to create a perfect smile, porcelain veneers have many outstanding advantages.

Veneers not only help hide defects such as cracks, uneven colors, or worn teeth but also create a protective physical layer for teeth. Veneers are resistant to water and stains from food and drinks and are antibacterial, helping to protect teeth from harmful bacteria. In addition, porcelain veneers are also resistant to heat and pressure, helping to protect teeth when chewing and talking every day.

Process to create the perfect porcelain veneer set

1. General examination and health check

Before starting the porcelain veneer procedure, your doctor will perform a general examination of your oral health. This ensures that any problems, such as tooth decay or periodontitis, will be treated first, ensuring the health of your teeth and smile.
 
2. Perform anesthesia and tooth grinding:

After making sure your teeth are in the best condition, the doctor will administer anesthesia to ensure you do not feel pain during the tooth grinding process. Then, the doctor will grind a thin layer on the surface of the real tooth to create adhesion for the veneer later. This process not only prepares the tooth for veneers but also preserves your natural teeth.
 
3. Take a tooth impression and send it to the lab.

After grinding the teeth, the doctor will take an impression of the teeth. This impression will be sent to the lab at the dental clinic, where technicians will fabricate dental veneers to create the most beautiful set of teeth for you.
 
Currently, there are two techniques for taking tooth impressions: taking tooth impressions with substances and taking tooth impressions with smart AI technology. The East Rose Dental Clinic is one of the pioneer dentists in incorporating AI technology into treatment, helping to make treatment fast and accurate and bring optimal results for patients without causing any worrying complications.
 
4. Check the bite and attach the veneer.
 
Once the veneer is completed, the doctor will check the bite and compare the veneer with real teeth. If everything is perfect in terms of aesthetics and bite, the doctor will proceed to attach them with specialized dental veneer cement just for veneers. This ensures that the veneer is applied sustainably and provides optimal aesthetic results.
 
5. Re-examination and maintenance

After completing the porcelain veneer procedure, you will need to have regular follow-up visits to the dentist to ensure that everything is working effectively and creating a perfect smile for you. If any problems arise, your doctor will promptly treat them to ensure your new smile is always radiant and healthy.
