Veneer teeth...?!
Question:
Veneer teeth...?
I wore braces for 2 years, but I still hate my teeth. I feel like my teeth are different sizes and shapes. It's not horrible...I'm just sort of a perfectionist. Would it be worth getting veneers? About how long do they last? Do they break easy?
Answers:
Firstly Im answering this question because Im a Specialist in Prosthetic and Restorative Dentistry.
1. Your perception of esthetics of smile and expectation are to be evaluated before any laminate veneer treatment planning is done.
2. In the treatment planning phase its the teeth but also the gingival esthetic line and gingival zenith are evaluated.
3. A diagnostic wax up will be made to project the final results using a template and provisional resin material.
4. Later after your approval of treatment u need to sign a consent form
5. Treatment is begun with reduction of minimum of 0.5-0.7mm of your enamel of your teeth and temporary laminates are placed after making impressions.
6. Next appointment you have your hollywood smile u once dreamt off.
PERFECTIONIST............
It is worth getting it when it is Indicated in your case.
How long they last?
1. Depends on your follow up of instructions given by your Specialist Dentist.
2. The experience of the laboratory in processing ceramic laminates.
3. The skill n experience of the specialist dentist to carry out procedures. You also have an option of composite direct laminates which I would place in a second order of choice. The skill of s specialist dentist to handle manipulate sculpt finish n polish composite laminte is the key to success.
Do they break?
YES YES they are very BRITTLE. vvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeerrrrrryyyy... easily they break if not properly bonded to your teeth using laminate luting resin cement and if your occlusion is not adjusted to conform to anterior guidance.
