Ultra-thin porcelain veneers - Modern technology for a Hollywood smile

What makes a beautiful, bright and impressive smile to those around you? This question is very difficult to answer, because each person will have a different perspective and assessment. In which, the color and shape, the alignment of the teeth are considered the most important. If you have a defect that needs improvement, the ultra-thin porcelain veneer method may be the solution you are looking for.

What is the technology of Super thin veneer Emax Empress?

Super thin veneer technology or ultra-thin porcelain veneers are used in porcelain bonding to help restore the shape and color of teeth. Normally, porcelain veneers will have a size of about 0.5 - 0.8mm, so it is only necessary to grind away the thin enamel layer when restoring. Compared with traditional porcelain teeth, the Veneer method can maximize the preservation of teeth and limit the amount of enamel that needs grinding.

However, there are many customers who still want to preserve their teeth and do not want to interfere with enamel grinding when applying porcelain. So the technology of ultra-thin porcelain veneers was born to meet this need. Porcelain veneers are only 0.2 - 0.4mm in size, so they do not grind teeth, or grind very thin layers with dense and crowded teeth.

Ultra-thin porcelain veneers are made from glass-porcelain ingots with leading modern CAD / CAM 3D technology. Despite its thin size, this porcelain veneer is capable of withstanding high impact, safe and benign, without abrasion.

Advantages and disadvantages of using ultra-thin porcelain veneers

Defect

Besides the above advantages, this method also has disadvantages such as:

• Because the porcelain surface is too thin, it requires a highly skilled doctor to ensure that the surface is glued to the teeth to create a uniform mass. If the porcelain paste is not compatible, there may be a difference, and the risk of breakage and chipping when eating and drinking is very high.
• The scope of indication is limited for teeth with few defects, crooked teeth that need porcelain crowns are the best choice.
• Careful care: When gluing porcelain teeth, the glued surface will hug the outer surface of the teeth to help resist the force and not crack at all. However, because the size is very thin, you need to take care of it carefully.
• High cost: Compared with conventional paste, ultra-thin porcelain paste is quite expensive.

Super thin porcelain be applied with cases

As mentioned, ultra-thin porcelain veneers will have limited indications, so this method will be applied in the following specific cases:

• Suitable for teeth with mild to moderate discoloration: The thin porcelain veneers have an opening so they cannot completely cover the teeth, so they are only suitable for mild and moderate tarnished teeth.
• Mildly chipped teeth: In cases of mildly chipped teeth, you don't need to grind your teeth, but you can still grind your teeth to restore the shape of your teeth. Cases of cracked teeth on the inside need to be filled or covered with porcelain teeth if the crack is too deep.
• Sparse teeth: Sparse teeth can cause open bite, adhesion and formation of plaque on teeth. To overcome the slight gap of no more than 2mm. Ultra-thin porcelain veneers can be applied.
