The purpose of aesthetic dental treatment is to ensure that the teeth look healthy, natural, aesthetic and beautiful without causing any loss of function in the teeth. In this context; teeth with gaps, decay, crooked, broken, shape, texture and form disorders are treated.
For aesthetic dental treatments, many areas of dentistry are used, from Orthodontics, Periodontics, Implantology, Prosthetic Treatments, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery applications, from lighted white fillings to porcelain fillings, from whitening methods to laser technology and laminate applications.
Applications Performed in Aesthetic Dental Treatments
Empress Veneer
Laminate Veneer
Hollywood Smile
Monolithic Zircon
Zirconium Coating
Ceramic Coating on Metal
Empress Veneer – Coating
Empress veneer coatings are porcelain types whose durability rate is increased by reinforcing the ceramic part by placing glass ceramic on it without using any metal material. Its content structure consists of ceramic.
Empress veneer coatings are known for transmitting light very well. They are also widely used in prosthetic procedures. Empress veneers are mostly preferred in aesthetic procedures because they are durable and provide very good results. Successful results are also achieved in patients who have problems with their front teeth.
Other dental treatments where empress veneers are used are; age-related discoloration, teeth with root canal treatment, and people with gaps between their teeth.
Laminate Veneer
Laminate veneer is the most preferred treatment method for smile design. With this treatment method, it is possible to eliminate the separation, discoloration, abrasion and even crookedness between your teeth.
Veneers are thin porcelain leaflets as thick as a nail. Porcelain veneers are bonded by roughening the front surfaces of the teeth a very little.
Hollywood Smile
Since we live in a visual age, everyone wants to have a much more aesthetic smile. Hollywood Smile, the branded name of an aesthetic smile; is an aesthetic smile design that allows you to have the smile of Hollywood stars.
Hollywood Smile includes cosmetic procedures performed to achieve the perfect shape, color and size of teeth. The most common cosmetic procedure is porcelain veneers designed to cover the surface of your teeth.
Monolithic Zirconium
Monolithic zirconium is a coating method applied to zirconium without using porcelain. The new generation monolithic zirconium treatment, which has an aesthetic appearance and very high fracture resistance, is preferred quite often today.
Monolithic zirconium; Unlike classical zirconium coating methods, it is applied without placing porcelain on zirconium. By coloring and applying makeup to zirconium, highly aesthetic looking and fracture resistant crowns are obtained.
Treatments applied with monolithic zirconium are completed in a much shorter time compared to alternative methods. Monolithic zirconium coatings;
For people with limited time for treatment,
For people with fractures and abrasions in their front teeth,
For people who have tooth damage due to teeth grinding,
For people who have discoloration in their teeth and gums,
In cases where a highly durable coating needs to be applied,
For people who have difficulty biting food and have tooth sensitivity,
For people with intense tooth sensitivity, monolithic zirconium coating treatment is recommended for coating treatments.
Zirconium Crown
In this system, a white zirconium alloy is used as the substructure instead of metal. Although many things affect the appearance of crowns and bridges, the most important is their reaction to light. Natural teeth transmit light. As a result, depth and vitality appear in the tooth. Metal-free porcelain crowns (empress-zirconium) have more depth and vitality due to their light transmittance properties.
Empress or zirconium crowns can be made in cases where there is no tooth loss, there is excessive damage or where the laminate crown approach may be insufficient. However, in cases where there is tooth loss, only zirconium crowns should be preferred.
Metal-On-Ceramic Coating
Metal-on-ceramic coating is a type of dental prosthesis recommended for eliminating damaged and tissue-losing dental disorders and applied for the purpose of saving teeth.
We can think of metal-on-ceramic coatings as a protective shell attached to the processed tooth. Thus, the tooth takes its natural shape and functions again. The inner part of this coating is made of metal and the visible part in the mouth is covered with tooth-colored ceramic.
The metal substructure is used to support the ceramic on the outer part, but it is not visible in the mouth. Ceramic is applied in layers by the dental technician, so it gives a very natural and aesthetic result.
