First, a consultation is arranged between the dentist and the patient. The inside of the mouth is examined, and both the condition of the teeth and the general health status of the patient are checked. In the first examination, intraoral photographs are taken, the oral site is scanned with the help of a special camera, and then the teeth are measured for 3D modeling. A special mock-up is prepared in the laboratory. As a result of this work, which gives a three-dimensional sample, the doctor and the patient can decide together how the lamina veneers should be.
If the teeth need to be corrected with different treatments before the porcelain lamina is applied, these treatments are complete first. For example, pre-treatments such as tooth enamel correction, root canal treatment, tooth cleaning, and decayed tooth treatment are completed. It is essential that the teeth become suitable for the lamina. Laminas' color determined also with the doctor and the patient's consensus and is prepared in the laboratory. First, these laminas are rehearsed, if there is a structure that does not fit the patient's teeth, they are corrected. When the results are ideal, porcelain laminas are cemented to the tooth surface.
Porcelain laminas, also known as leaf porcelain, are one of the dental methods applied to obtain an aesthetic oral and dental appearance.
Tooth shape and tooth color are also permanently changed.
Discoloration caused by the intense use of substances such as cigarettes and tea, tooth yellowing caused by aging and the use of medical drugs, teeth gap problems, and damages to the tooth surface as a result of physical impact can be treated with porcelain lamina treatment.
Ultra-thin porcelains are used in the porcelain lamina application, which is directly related to the smile design.
Thanks to their compatibility with teeth and gingiva, these materials provide comfortable use.
The functionality of the patient's natural teeth will not be damaged during the lamina cementing process and the patient can start using his / her teeth right after the procedure.
At this point, it can be said that there are some points to be considered. For example, you should take care of both oral hygiene and leaf lamina care. You should brush your teeth regularly and go to your routine dentist appointments. It is also recommended that you stay away from actions such as, grinding your teeth, biting nails, and smoking.
Leaf porcelain application is performed under local anesthesia, that is, the patient does not feel pain during the operation. You may feel slight sensitivity during the temporary lamina application session, but this effect does not last long. There is no pain or sensitivity after the permanent dental cementing process.
The answer to the questions is determined by the dentist with the results of tests and examinations. If there is a lower jaw problem, tooth enamel reduction, or crooked tooth issue, the lamina may not be applied directly.
Leaf porcelains are more advantageous than various veneer procedures. For example, tooth reduction is not applied as in full porcelain restoration, minimal abrasion is done to the enamel surface so that extra thin porcelain leaves look natural when cemented here. Tooth discoloration does not occur in porcelain laminas. It is more resistant to coloring agents such as cigarettes, coffee, and tea. Also, it does not contain any metal substances.
