Porcelain Covering
In this process, the tooth surface is crowned with a material whose raw material is porcelain, in accordance with the natural tooth structure of the person.
Porcelain veneer, which is used for aesthetic and health purposes, can be used for mild and moderate tooth curvature, treatment of missing teeth, tooth fractures that cannot be treated with filling, discoloration and deformities, tooth extraction.
How Are Porcelain Covering Applied?
First of all, the teeth to be covered with porcelain are cleaned with the help of a special tool. The cleaned teeth are thinned 0.5-0.7 mm to attach the veneer. The doctor takes an impression of the thinned teeth. The impression taken is sent to the laboratory and the implanted porcelain crowns enter the production process. This period is between 10-15 days on average. Temporary veneers are applied to the patient so that the crushed teeth are not affected by external factors.
After the porcelain veneers are prepared, their suitability is checked by the doctor, corrected if necessary, and sent back to the laboratory to be polished when the porcelain teeth are ready for placement. Ready-to-use porcelain crowns are adhered to the patient's teeth using a special adhesive. After the procedure is completed, after the effect of anesthesia wears off and the food-drinking barrier, which lasts for an average of 2 hours, ends, the patient can start life with new porcelain crowns without restrictions.
The average lifetime of porcelain crowns is 10 years. At the end of this period, the same procedures are repeated, the measurement is taken and adjusted, and new crowns are placed by the doctor. Porcelain veneers are also affected by external factors, just like your own teeth. For this reason, it is important to take care of the crowns like your own teeth, clean them regularly and protect them from impacts. Mild tingling and pain that may occur after porcelain veneer is normal. This can be easily treated with pain relievers prescribed by the doctor.
Zirconium Covering
It can be said that zirconium Coveringare the evolution of the metal-supported crown, which was widely used in dental aesthetics in the past. Zirconium veneers have become the most preferred dental aesthetic application in the world, as they last longer than metal veneers and do not have negative effects such as opacity and inability to adapt to the gums.
Zirconium veneers are 100% gum-friendly, do not cause gum disease, and are resistant to heat and cold. Even in people who consume a lot of tea, coffee or cigarettes, bad breath does not occur, there is no stain or color change.
How is Zirconium Coating Made?
The application process of zirconium Covering starts with grinding and cutting the teeth. It is important to use temporary veneers provided by the doctor so that the cut teeth are not damaged or affected by cold and heat. After the teeth are cut, the doctor takes measurements and a special plaster is made. The measurement obtained is sent to the laboratory and prepared according to the person's mouth and teeth structure. Prepared zirconium teeth are tested and sent back to the laboratory for polishing after necessary corrections are made.
After this process is completed, ready-to-use zirconium Covering are placed on the teeth and fixed with a special adhesive. Zirconium veneers are the most popular type of dental aesthetics today due to their durability and longevity. With the right application and careful use, you can ensure lifetime use. Since the procedure is performed under local anesthesia, no pain is felt during the procedure.
After the anesthesia wears off, the pain is quite normal, it changes according to the patient's pain threshold and is easily controlled with the drugs recommended by the doctor. The total processing time of zirconium crowns is between 7-10 days. At the end of the 10-day period, the patient will have smooth, white and durable teeth like a dream.
Laminate Covering
Spherical laminate veneers, also as leaf dental veneers, are a layer made of porcelain that is adhered to the front surfaces of the teeth. Laminated crowns can be used to build or design your foregrounds, to strengthen or be applied completely on broken teeth, to effect whitening well. It is important that existing teeth are established before laminated covering are applied.
How Are Laminate Covering Used?

After being examined in a way that there is no disease or disease, the teeth are treated externally, they are fully examined and their measurements are taken. In laminate crowns, the teeth are filed and thinned. In the laboratory, it is skillfully adhered with leaf crowns made of fine porcelain at the desired degree of whiteness. they are used for those in front of passengers.
Laminate coating does not hiss pain from the local anesthetic preparation stage. Planning the trainings to be prescribed by the doctor is sufficient for the comfort of the sequencer. The process of laminate crowns is completed in 2-3 hours on average. Laminate ceramics are of great importance to be used for fine porcelain.
The longevity of laminate from impacts and a large number of hard and is more important than thought. Average useful life is 5-10 years depending on person and heater.
