What does modern dentistry offer?

When building teeth, in particular canines, depending on the situation, three methods are used.

Direct method

Extension occurs in the oral cavity. Various materials for dental reconstruction are used.

On the prepared tooth layers are applied material. The thickness is selected, guided by the wishes of the patient. After the completion of the procedure, the hardened material is ground and perfected.

The procedure takes a minimum amount of time, no more than one hour per tooth. With the extension of two canines, the time spent will be about one and a half hours. The work will be carried out consistently, which will save time.

Installation of veneers and other linings

The main work takes place in a dental laboratory.

Veneers - very thin plates, made of dental material, reminiscent of the properties of enamel. The surface of the tooth is prepared, after which the plates are glued to a special solution.

You can install lumineers instead of veneers. They are similar to tooth enamel, and thanks to a special production technology their thickness is reduced to 0.3 mm.

These plates are referred to aesthetic dentistry. With their help you can hide the flaws of teeth. Masked chips, cracks and spots on the tooth enamel.

Installation of crowns

Crowns are selected according to the required size and shape, which is determined by an orthopedic dentist. The dental technician is engaged in manufacturing.

When selecting a crown, you can select the material from which future canines will be made. There are also several ways to install a finished product.

The most popular crowns:

1. Ceramic-ceramic .A thin layer of ceramic is applied to the metal, which allows the tooth to look more natural.
2. Ceramic .They are made of zirconium dioxide, the characteristics are not inferior to metal.

Set the crown can:

• on your treated tooth;
• if the root of the tooth is saved, then it can be installed on the cult tab;
• you can mount the pin and put it on it.

You can increase the fangs with a crown by no more than 4 mm. With a more massive buildup, the oral mucosa, the tongue, will be injured. Permanent injuries can lead to disastrous results, up to the formation of a tumor.
