The clinical procedures used in high impact aesthetic dental treatments are already part of the routine in many dental offices. Unlike the first techniques and porcelain used in the late 1980s, new lines of dental materials exclusive to techniques with contact lenses and porcelain veneers, the development of more aesthetic and resistant porcelains, and the introduction of new clinical techniques brought greater resolvability. You can go for the Uksmiles there.
Comfort and safety to treatments
Digital simulations or prototypes installed on the teeth such as the test-drive technique, porcelain fragments that cover selective surfaces of the teeth and the combined use of techniques, sophisticated procedures until a few years ago, are now available and at global costs and final price of treatment more accessible to patients.
If, on the one hand, the new techniques and porcelains bring more security, durability and better optical properties such as transparencies and colors similar to natural teeth, on the other hand the mastery of these techniques requires more refined technical training and complete mastery of the procedures and protocols step by step of each stage. In fact, the step-by-step technique is of interest not only to dentists but also to patients – being able to organize their agenda with consultations for treatment.
Veneers and dental contact lenses step by step color selection
The step-by-step guide to treatment with the technique with porcelain veneer and dental contact lenses provides a quick and easy understanding for the patient. It is important that the patient knows all the stages of his treatment to understand and participate, with the dentist, in variables that interfere with his treatment, from the price of the steps to the changes that, although rare after planning, may appear until the last consultation.
- The steps in the step-by-step guide below are carried out in a minimum of 5 consultations, in a safe protocol so that gum treatment, tooth whitening and planning are carried out without major setbacks or time constraints. Yes, it is possible to carry out the treatment in a smaller number of consultations, as long as the gums are healthy and the dentist has experience with planning and simulating treatments with facets and dental contact lenses.
- The average time of treatment does not depend only on the time of manufacture of the porcelain veneers by dental laboratories. Gingival treatment (if necessary) is the one for tooth whitening and final acceptance of planning also influence time.
- On average, treatment is done in 30 days for patients in need of gum treatment (gingivitis), or 10 to 14 days for patients in need of tooth whitening only. Some dentists have more optimized services for planning and making the slides, and the treatment can be carried out, without decreasing the quality of the results, between 7 to 10 days.
Conclusion
Moldings, radiographs and radiographic examinations are aids to assess the health of teeth and gums and to support treatment planning. It is during the first consultation that the dentist identifies the best individualized technique for the correction of each tooth (facets, lenses or fragments), evaluating from mechanical stresses to the intensity of changes in the color and shape of the teeth.
