Dental Veneers and Lumineers

Dental Veneers and Lumineers In Turkey

Many dental techniques have been created to give patients a beautiful smile in response to the growing demand for cosmetic dentistry treatments. Most people need to make minor but significant adjustments to improve their teeth’s appearance. Your life can significantly change with the confidence that a beautiful smile brings. A procedure called dental veneers and lumineers is highly in demand in Turkey to help you get the smile of your dreams.

Lerra Clinic explains the distinctions between “no-prep” porcelain veneers, such as Lumineers, and standard porcelain veneers so you understand the benefits and drawbacks of each.

An Overview of Dental Veneers and Lumineers

Dentists can restore damaged or discolored teeth to a glossy, white appearance by using veneers.
Since veneers are often comprised of porcelain, your teeth must be thoroughly prepared before they can be applied.

An alternative kind of veneer is known as Lumineers, which is quicker, less expensive, and thinner to install. But it’s not as easy as you might assume to select the appropriate kind of veneer.

What Are Veneers?

Dental veneers, also known as porcelain veneers, are thin layers of porcelain or composite material that range in thickness from 0.5 to 0.7 millimeters. These veneers are bonded onto teeth to correct imperfections in their color and shape and to restore the mouth’s ability to chew food normally.

These dental veneers, which are frequently regarded as genuine dental prostheses, are placed directly on the tooth’s exterior to enhance its appearance and address chewing issues.

Their goal is to eliminate the black areas between teeth and whiten teeth, improving the appearance of the dental structure. Dental stains and other issues like shape, location, and color flaws can be fixed with them. To ensure that the veneers precisely fit the size and shape of the natural teeth, they are adjusted and cemented onto the teeth.

Restoring normal masticatory functions after trauma (crunched teeth or dental fractures) or after normal dental wear from bruxism, teeth grinding, or poor habits like biting objects or nails is another goal of dental veneers.

What Are Lumineers?

Lumineers are extremely thin ceramic sheets that are bonded to teeth permanently using a unique adhesive. The innovative design of the Lumineers enables for a smooth surface without pain. They resemble real teeth since they are transparent and thin like contact lenses, but before the lumineers are affixed, the tooth underneath must not be overly whitened or stained (the lumineers cover the tooth so that no traces are apparent).

Similar to veneers, Lumineers have an extremely lengthy lifespan of up to ten years. Lumineers last longer when you use whitening toothpaste and practice good oral hygiene.

What Is The Difference Between Lumineers and Veneers?

• When dental veneer treatment is used, approximately 0.8 to 2 mm of tooth material needs to be ground down.
• Without grinding the teeth, tooth repair using thin lumineers, like contact lenses, enables cosmetic optimization of the teeth.
• Because lumineers are thin and highly permeable, discoloration of the teeth would show through them if they are not naturally very white. Therefore, teeth must be exceedingly white or whitened before using them.

Tips for a Smooth Recovery from Dental Veneers and Lumineers

• Oral hygiene in the days following veneers or Lumineers must be delicate so as not to bother the gums. These, during cementation, are normally separated to improve adhesion. It is not a painful procedure that requires pain relief therapy, but the resulting irritation can last a few days.
• It is therefore advisable to clean with a soft bristle toothbrush and with a unidirectional movement from the gum towards the tooth. This movement does not further irritate the gums, which will return pink and well adhered to the tooth within a few days. Once the veneers have been cemented they are one with the tooth and, with the new materials, there is no risk of them coming loose. It is therefore advisable to use all hygiene aids such as toothbrushes, toothpaste, and dental floss.

• The diet does not presuppose any particular limitations even if it is always a good practice, after having consumed particularly staining elements such as coffee, tea, red fruits, or cigarette smoke, to rush and brush your teeth! Veneers or Lumineers must be subjected to regular checks by the dentist, especially regarding occlusion with the teeth of the opposite arch.
• Giving the patient a night guard to wear every night is advised if they have conditions like bruxism, which is the grinding of teeth at night. When maintained and cared for appropriately, veneers can last anywhere from 10 to 20 years on average, while lumineers can stay on the teeth for five to seven years before needing to be replaced.

What Can We Do for You at Lerra Clinic?

The first visit to Lerra Clinic includes various phases to be able to formulate a specific treatment plan studied and personalized for each clinical case that comes under our observation.

 In simpler words, we will study the patient’s mouth and offer him the most appropriate and innovative veneer options to restore or preserve the health of his smile.

Phase 1: A dental medical history is collected to understand the patient’s health status, both systemic and dental, and we ask him to tell us his clinical history.

Phase 2: intraoral and extraoral dental examination, i.e. inside and outside the mouth. This sometimes also happens thanks to the help of radio diagnostic tools such as intraoral X-rays and panoramic images, which allow the dentist to draw up a diagnosis of the specific case.

Phase 3: if the case requires multi-specialist interventions, there will be a consultation phase with other dentists at Lerra Clinic. In some of these therapies, it will be necessary to investigate the case further with second-level radiographic tests such as, for example, a CT scan.

Phase 4: After the consultation, a therapeutic plan is drawn up which corresponds to a quote that illustrates, with clear and detailed expense items, the therapies proposed by the Lerra Clinic team of specialists.

Phase 5: presented with the estimate, the patient is then asked to consider it calmly and, if he agrees to accept it (signing it) he can entrust the care of his mouth to Lerra Clinic: you will be asked to carefully read the estimate and the informed consent document presented by our operators. These contractual documents clearly set out the risks and advantages of the proposed therapies (or alternative therapies reported in the documentation). The operators are available to the patient to welcome his questions and answer any type of doubt.

Phase 6: the patient who has accepted the treatment and care path, and therefore the estimate, will coordinate with our dentist at Lerra Clinic, and the acceptance which, based on the patient’s needs and the availability of the clinic dentist, will identify the best days and times to schedule the appointments needed to take care of your oral health.
