Microprostheses known as veneers are used for the restoration of anterior teeth. This miracle of dentistry allows you to eliminate defects in teeth and make a perfect smile.
Thin plates are installed over the tooth after pre-treatment. Despite the seeming fragility, microprostheses have high strength. Fastening is carried out by means of cement mortar.
When are the microprosthes set?
Indications for the installation of veneers are:
- chips on teeth;
- enamel erosion;
- presence of large interdental spaces;
- "tetracycline" teeth;
- lesions hard tooth tissues.
Also plates are used for correction of occlusion. The possibilities of esthetic dentistry make it possible to eliminate the natural shortcomings of the dentition and correct the defects that have been acquired.
The installation of veneers is prevented by tooth decay from the inside, severe bite, gum disease, bruxism, high erasure, lack of a large number of chewing teeth, the possibility of injury due to extreme lifestyles( playing sports, bad habits, etc.).
Color analysis is performed before installing the veneers. The natural color is compared with the desired color, the most suitable variant for prosthetics is selected. With the installation of a single prosthesis, the color is selected taking into account the shade of the dentition.
The next stage is the treatment of the tooth surface. When installing lumineers, it is sufficient to clean the surface qualitatively, while turning on other types of veneers, turning is done. It can range from 0.1 mm to 1.5 mm, depending on the clinical picture.
For restoration with the use of microprosthes made in the dental laboratory, it is necessary to remove the cast beforehand - from it the future prosthesis is made. Temporary plastic nozzles are installed during the manufacture of ceramic plates. Ready prostheses are fixed on the teeth with the help of cement glue.
After prosthetics, it is necessary to refrain from eating food, which contains dyes.
Despite the fact that the adhesive compositions have a high setting speed, it should not be on the first day to test new prostheses with coarse and stiff food. To extend the life of the devices, you will have to abandon toothpastes, which contain abrasive particles.

What are they?
Microprostheses are made of a variety of materials and are used to remove defects of various types. The most widely used ceramic veneers, which have a long service life. Among other advantages of ceramic models:
- do not lose color after a lapse of time;
- have high strength;
- are used to eliminate the most complex defects;
- are abrasion resistant;
- are highly biocompatible;
- have a reflective effect.
Ceramic microprostheses are of two kinds:
- porcelain - have a beautiful appearance, they have the necessary transparency, which increases their similarity with natural tooth tissues;
- from zirconium dioxide - have increased strength, are made by milling.
Composite veneers are inferior to ceramic veneers in durability. However, they are more affordable in price terms. Most often they are used for the restoration of single defects. The average life of such microprostheses is 5 years.
The most durable are the prostheses made in the dental laboratory. Composite models of therapeutic use are made directly during the installation on the tooth. In fact, they are a light-polymer seal intended for restoration.
Before turning the composite veneers, the tooth is turned. Therapeutic veneers do not require deep grinding. To install a ready prosthesis, a significant part of the tooth is removed. Before fixing permanent prostheses, the dentist sets up temporary plastic attachments.
Installation and removal of plates is not particularly difficult, so lumineers can be used to quickly remove defects without prior treatment and preparation of teeth. Below is a photo before and after installation of lumineers.
Any veneer model has both advantages and disadvantages. Ceramic prosthetics are expensive for the price, composite ones tend to lose color, lumineers are used exclusively to eliminate minor defects.
