The risk of staining porcelain dental veneers due to their structure is extremely low. However, in order to ensure long-lasting use, it is important to stay away from acidic foods and beverages, to limit the consumption of cigarettes, tea, coffee and other substances that may cause discoloration in the teeth, and to quit if possible.
Staying away from impacts that may cause damage to the teeth, being careful during the consumption of hard foods and not performing tearing off with the front teeth are the points to be considered. People who are in the habit of clenching or grinding teeth should use protective plaque at night to ensure the longevity of porcelain dental veneers.
Why Should We Have Porcelain Dental Veneer?
Porcelain dental coating treatment is one of the most effective dental procedures that can be applied to eliminate various disorders in the teeth and to achieve an aesthetic appearance. Porcelain dental coating is often preferred in the stage of jaw closure and asymmetrical closure disorders. In addition, it is one of the most effective methods that can be preferred to eliminate tooth deficiencies in areas where tooth loss is experienced for many different reasons, which is one of the reasons underlying the popularity of porcelain tooth coating treatment.
What is the Difference Between Porcelain Dental Veneer and Zirconium Tooth?
In the porcelain tooth coating method, metal-supported coating is used to carry the durability to the highest point. In porcelain dental veneering made using a material also called dental ceramics, gold or platinum metal bridges are usually preferred. By making cobalt alloy, it is possible to increase the durability of these metals and to reach steel durability. However, metals cannot have full compatibility with teeth and gums and are not among the light transmission properties. As a result, the teeth may have a dull, dull appearance that is far from the natural tooth color.
In the porcelain tooth coating method, since the color of the metal is darkened to ensure fixation to the tooth and a dark substance is placed under the tooth, there is a risk of a purple color around the gum over time and even gum recession. If the porcelain veneer does not fit the gum properly, food residues can accumulate in the space between the tooth and the veneer, causing bad breath and tooth decay.
Since there is no light transmittance, natural teeth are intervened by thinning, cutting and rasping method in porcelain tooth coating, which can cause an artificial appearance in the front teeth. In order to prevent a rough appearance, it may be necessary to remove a large amount of tooth tissue.
In zirconium tooth coating treatment, tooth coating without metal support is performed and provides naturalness in tooth color with its light transmittance feature. Zirconium, which does not damage teeth and gums, has a high compatibility. Intervention in natural teeth is minimal. Despite its thin and transparent structure, it has a solid structure.
How Much Are Porcelain Tooth Veneer Prices?
Porcelain tooth coating prices are determined depending on the scope of the treatment to be applied for the patient, the quality of the material to be used, how many teeth will be coated with porcelain, the experience of the dentist and many other different factors. Therefore, it is not right to give a standard porcelain tooth coating price. It is accepted that the number of sessions the treatment will be completed is among the determining factors on porcelain tooth coating prices.
