ZIRCONIUM, LAMINATE AND E-MAX PROSTHETIC APPLICATIONS
What are Prosthetic Applications?
Prosthetic applications are thin and durable surfaces applied to teeth for aesthetic and functional purposes. They correct the shape, colour and structure of teeth, resulting in more aesthetic and stronger teeth. Zirconium, laminate and E-max applications are the most commonly preferred types in modern dentistry. Each offers different advantages and areas of use.
Zirconium Dental Veneers
Zirconium is a popular material in dentistry for its aesthetics, durability and reliability. Zirconium dental veneers are made by coating a titanium-based metal material with zirconium oxide. Zirconium veneers provide a natural-looking appearance and are also highly durable.
- Advantages of Zirconium Veneers:
- Durability: Zirconium is more durable and long-lasting than other types of veneers.
- Natural Appearance: They are highly successful from an aesthetic point of view and provide a natural tooth appearance.
- Gum-Friendly: Zirconium veneers are compatible with gums and do not cause allergic reactions.
- Light Adaptability: They are sensitive to light and therefore provide a very natural tooth appearance.
Laminate Applications
Laminate applications are thin porcelain layers that are bonded to the surface of the tooth. Laminate veneers are placed on the front surface of the tooth to achieve an aesthetically perfect result. They are typically preferred for tooth shape abnormalities, colour changes, and small cavities.
Advantages of Laminate Applications:
- Thinness and Aesthetics: Thinner than other types of veneers, providing a natural appearance.
- Minimal Tooth Reduction: Laminate veneers are applied with minimal tooth reduction.
- Variety of Colour Options: Can perfectly match the natural tooth colour.
E-max Dental Veneers
E-max is another type of veneer that has become popular in dentistry in recent years. These veneers are made of full ceramic material and are extremely satisfying from an aesthetic point of view. E-max veneers can be used on both front and back teeth.
Advantages of E-max Veneers:
- High Aesthetics: E-max veneers perfectly mimic the appearance and transparency of natural teeth.
- Durability and Strength: E-max veneers are highly durable and resistant to fractures.
- Quick Application: The system typically allows for application in a single session.
Dental Veneer Application Process
The dental veneer application process generally consists of several steps:
1. Initial Examination: Your dentist will assess your tooth structure and overall health.
2. Tooth Preparation: The tooth to be veneered is shaped according to the material to be used.
3. Impression Taking: Impressions are taken of your teeth to create a mould for the veneer.
4. Crown Application: The dentist selects the most suitable crown material and completes the procedure.
