Laminate Veneers

Patients with open bite, and class 1 & 2 bite are suitable for laminate veneers and have a lower risk of breakages and fractures compared to other bite issues and so are more suited for treatment. Patients with diastema (gaps between teeth), discolorations, stained teeth, slightly rotated teeth, damaged enamel, uneven smile line, small chippins and broken teeth. Anyone that isn’t quite happy with their smile but still have a healthy dental status.

Laminate veneers are purely an aesthetic restoration option and so patients with certain conditions would be better suited to have crowns or veneers. Patients with cavities and other damages to the back side of their teeth could consider crowns, as the laminates only protect the front of teeth. Patients that present these varying bite issues: a deep bite, class 3 bite, crossbite, and straight bite (when bottom and top teeth meet at the tip of the teeth). With these bite issues, the laminate veneers have a high probability to clash resulting in breakages and fractures. Patients with a grinding habit, extremely rotated teeth, lots of cavities, and poor oral hygiene are not very suitable for this type of veneer treatment.

If the patient took tetracycline medications as a child, their teeth are heavily stained and would be better suited to have dental crowns.

The benefit of having laminate veneers in Turkey is the cost-effective minimal prep design. Small orthodontic issues can be resolved and the smile is completely renewed while still feeling like these are your natural teeth. Other benefits include:

• Biocompatibility: The reaction of dental adhesive and laminate porcelain material against the natural tooth and gingiva is minimal.
• Strength: Porcelain has a slight scratch-resistance
• Thinness: Laminate veneers are 0.3mm-0.5mm in thickness which makes them feel very natural.
• Longevity: The expected lifetime of laminate veneers is 10-15 years.
• Translucency: The porcelain has great translucency replicating natural enamel. So laminates feel incredibly natural.
• Enamel replacement: Enamel can become damaged by foods, beverages, and medicines. Laminate veneers give a thin protective surface from future damage.
• Cavity-proof: The porcelain surface is slippery, so bacteria and plaque have a hard time sticking to the veneer.
• Minimal prep: only 0.3mm to 0.7mm of the tooth prepared for treatment.

Although the laminate veneer is cavity-proof, the natural tooth underneath is not. Bacteria and plaque can attach between the gums and from behind the tooth. The back-side of the tooth is not covered by veneer so proper dental hygiene is still required to avoid cavities.

Laminate veneers are made of porcelain which has a translucency attribute. Deep staining and discolouration can show through and so the dental veneer would be a better suited treatment.

Cheap materials and laxed laboratories lead to poor quality laminate veneers. Dentares uses only high quality porcelain material and we use our own private laboratory. In this way, we are able to control the quality of every step of the manufacturing process.

Laminate veneers will need replacing within 10-15 years. With the minimal prep, laminates are simple to replace without damaging the natural tooth.

Laminate veneers are mistakenly interchangeably used to describe other veneer treatments such as a dental veneer or dental lumineer. Laminate veneers are a minimal prep veneer. Whereas the lumineer is a non-prep veneer and thinner. Dental veneer can be confused with the laminate veneer. However the dental veneer is made up to 1.2mm thick and zirconia and emax are additional materials to be used. Laminate veneer is made from porcelain and milled by the CAD/CAM method similarly to the dental veneer method.

Laminate veneers in Turkey are a great option for patients looking to improve their smile. With minimal prep, laminates are a popular option when patients don’t wish to consider crowns or dental veneers for a smile makeover treatment. The life expectancy of laminate veneers can be up to 10-15 years. Provided that patients follow the maintenance and dental hygiene techniques recommended by the doctor. Greying is not an issue over time either, as the laminate veneer is metal-free.

After laminate veneer treatment in Turkey, patients should use a soft-bristled brush or square headed electric toothbrush. Frequent brushing 3 times a day after meals, regular flossing and use of non-alcoholic mouthwash is the recommended standard for personal oral hygiene. Patients should schedule regular check ups with their dentist every 6 months for a deep clean to get rid of hard to reach plaque and tartar. Be aware about the onset of sensitivity. This could be a warning about forming cavities. Increase oral hygiene practices to see a reduction in sensitivity. If it persists, it’s best to see a dentist.

Laminate veneers are a fantastic option to correct minor bite issues and reduce the risk of cavities forming on the fronts of a patient’s smile. Patients will often increase their dental hygiene practices after laminate veneer smile makeover treatment because they are now proud of their smile, and they wish to protect them. For these reasons, dental lumineers in Turkey can be quite healthy for oral health.

Laminate veneer treatment is completed within a week. Only 0.5mm of tooth material is prepared and our private laboratory is equipped with 3 CAM machines. The dentist spends time with the patient to understand their needs, complete tooth preparations, take measurements and impressions for a 3D model. By day 3, the first rehearsal for laminate veneers is trialled and the patient gives their feedback and the doctor makes slight adjustments to the laminates. By day 5 the doctor is able to use special adhesive to join the laminates to the appropriate teeth.

Dental lumineers are able to be placed on all the front teeth. Patients can have 8 or 10 visible teeth in their smile line also depending on the genetic predisposition of patients, some can have 2 or even 4 premolars per jaw. Dentares is able to fit up to 20 lumineers depending on patients condition.

Patients that have an open bite and class 1 & 2 bite are suitable for dental lumineers. Patients with these types of bites are less likely to clash their restorations in a way that would chip or break the lumineers. Patients may also wish to first have orthodontic treatment to fix bite issues before seeking dental lumineer treatment.

Dental lumineers are also a great option for patients with diastema (abnormally larger gaps between teeth), patients who are unable to improve the whiteness of their natural teeth. Slight teeth alignment deviation issues, uneven smile line, small chipping, the resizing of small lateral incisors and fractured or cracked teeth.

Dental veneers are purely an aesthetic restoration option and so patients with certain conditions would be better suited to have crowns or veneers. Patients with cavities and other damages to the back side of their teeth could consider crowns, as the lumineers only protect the front of teeth. Patients that present these varying bite issues: a deep bite, class 3 bite, crossbite, and straight bite (when bottom and top teeth meet at the tip of the teeth). With these bite issues, the lumineers have a high probability to clash resulting in breakages and fractures.

If the patient took tetracycline medications as a child, their teeth are heavily stained and would be better suited to have dental crowns.

The most ideal patients for dental lumineers treatment have small or large gaps between teeth (diastema), an uneven smile line, minor chipping, and are unable to improve the whiteness of their smile. Patients who have healthy teeth but aren’t comfortable with their smile that just require some minor changes that make a world of difference.

The greatest benefit of dental lumineers in Turkey is that it does not require invasive tooth preparation. This makes lumineer application and reapplication super quick and easy. It’s easy to see how dental lumineers can be such a popular option for dental tourists. Other benefits include:

• Biocompatibility: The reaction of dental adhesive and lumineer ceramic material against the natural tooth and gingiva is minimal.
• Strength: Due to the compression method in production and heat treatment, lumineers are incredibly durable
• Thinness: Lumineers are 0.2mm in thickness which makes them feel incredibly natural.
• Longevity: The expected lifetime of lumineers is between 15 to 20 years, and additional 5 years more than other crown/veneer materials.
• Reversible: Lumineers are able to be removed without damaging the natural tooth. They’re also able to be replaced easily without causing damage.
• Translucency: The ceramic glass material gives an identical translucency attribute to our natural enamel.
• Enamel replacement: Enamel can become damaged by foods, beverages, and medicines. There is no healing the natural enamel
• Cavity-proof: The surface of lumineer veneer is slippery and non-porous, rejecting bacteria and plaque to settle.
• No anaesthetic required: the treatment is non-invasive

Although the lumineer is cavity-proof, the natural tooth underneath is not. Bacteria and plaque can attach between the gums and from behind the tooth. The back-side of the tooth is not covered by lumineer so proper dental hygiene is still required to avoid cavities.

Dental lumineers are as thin as contact lens and so the translucency is maximised. This isn’t good news for discoloured or stained teeth. A full whiteness cannot be achieved in this case.

When cheap materials are used or the laboratory isn’t set up for compression method lumineers, chipping and fractures are more likely to occur. Dentares uses only high quality ceramic material and we use our own private laboratory. In this way, we are able to control the quality of every step of the manufacturing process.

Dental lumineers are sometimes mistakenly interchangeably used to describe other veneer treatments such as a dental veneer or laminate veneer. When in fact, lumineers are the only veneer option that does not require tooth preparation. Lumineers are also usually 0.2mm thick whereas laminate veneers can be between 0.3 and 0.5mm thick. Lumineers are made of a ceramic and then fired in an oven. Laminate veneer is made from porcelain and milled by the CAD/CAM method.

Dental lumineers in Turkey are incredibly durable for their thickness and material. The life expectancy of dental lumineers is up to 15-20 years. Provided that patients continue to use proper dental hygiene techniques and regular dental cleans. Lumineers are metal free so the colour is longer lasting than traditional metal veneers.

After dental lumineer treatment in Turkey, patients should use a soft-bristled brush or square headed electric toothbrush. Frequent brushing 3 times a day after meals, regular flossing and use of non-alcoholic mouthwash is the recommended standard for personal oral hygiene. Patients should schedule regular check ups with their dentist every 6 months for a deep clean to get rid of hard to reach plaque and tartar. Be aware about the onset of sensitivity. This could be a warning about forming cavities. Increase oral hygiene practices to see a reduction in sensitivity. If it persists, it’s best to see a dentist.

Dental lumineers are a great option to protect damaged enamel and reduce the risk of plaque forming. Bacteria and food particles slip off the ceramic surface and protect against acidic foods and beverages. For these reasons, dental lumineers in Turkey can be quite healthy for oral health.

The dental lumineer preparation process is quick in Turkey, compared to other dental veneer preparations. Lumineers require no shaving or filing to the natural tooth so the dentist just needs to spend time with the patient and understand their needs, take measurements and impressions for a 3D model. The laboratory technicians work within the dentists measurements and requests to virtually create your lumineers. Once the virtual model is rendered thanks to CAD technology. The compression machine is loaded with ceramic material and produces each lumineer individually. The lumineer is then ready to be applied in a matter of 3 days.
