Dental veneers in Albania are one of the best solutions to help you achieve the smile of your dreams. Nowadays, they have become one of the most popular options for those who have trouble with chipped teeth, a gap between their teeth, or misshapen teeth.
Dr. Roland Zhuka is a well-known implantologist, specialized in advanced implantology in Rome, Italy. The doctor has also successfully completed other specializations in the US, Lisbon, and Berlin. All treatments can be done under Conscious sedation or total anesthesia since our dental clinic is located inside the best Private Hospital in the Balkans.
As touched above, dental veneers are fine shells that are connected to the facade of teeth and can help improve their appearance. They are oftentimes made of porcelain or resin-composite materials that permanently bond to your teeth.
Veneers can be used in different cases of cosmetic concerns such as chipped, broken, discolored, and misshapen teeth.
Though most people get one veneer to fix a crippled or cracked tooth, many get between six to eight veneers so they can create a uniform and well-proportioned smile. Most veneers are commonly applied to the top front eighth teeth.
Dental veneer’s most common materials are porcelain or composite resin. In both cases, primordial preparation work is necessary. However, there also exist “no-prep” veneers, which need a different type of application.
Applying traditional veneers involves corrosion of the tooth structure and sometimes even removal of some of the tooth- even past enamel. This type of corrosion is done for proper placement, but it should be kept in mind that this is an irreversible procedure and can be painful to go through. In most plights, local anesthesia is used for the procedure.
The number of teeth and your dental concerns are what affect tooth reduction. In the cases when several teeth are included, the dentist may even order a wax model that would show you how your veneers would look.
Au contraire, no-prep veneers might need tooth preparation or alterations, but these alterations needed are close to none.
Most dentists start the process by grinding down the teeth and making an impression of your teeth, so they can create a mold. Then the mold will be sent out to the lab for the porcelain veneer to be prepared.
Once the veneer is prepared, the dentist will place it in the pre-prepared tooth and cement it in place. Whilst the permanent veneers are being prepared, it is your choice whether you would like to wear them or not temporarily veneers.
Other dentists who have access to more specialized technologies might use CAD/CAM technology for the design.
Please note that our clinic is part of the second option. We have the latest technological advancements so we can make your veneers in our lab.
In the cases you choose resin-composite veneers, the dentist will engrave the facade of the tooth before applying a paper-thin layer of the composite material to the pre-prepared tooth.
For the intended perfect look to be achieved, additional coatings of the composite may be needed. The finishing step includes curing or solidifying the composite veneer with proper light.
The no-prep veneers include options for certain brands of porcelain veneers like Lumineers of Vivaneers. They, of course, take a shorter amount of time and are less intrusive.
Alternately to removing coatings of the tooth below the enamel, no-prep veneers only alter the enamel. In most cases, no-prep veneers do not require the use of local anesthetics or temporary veneers.
Dental veneers are the solution in so many different cases, like the following:
Resin-composite veneers are a painless procedure that is not arbitrated by a laboratory, the dentist is the one who takes care of the renovation. The procedure is more of a conservative approach that does not require grinding down the teeth in any way.
It is to be acknowledged, nevertheless, that their effect is not permanent because its material absorbs pigments and is in frequent need of replacement.
The porcelain veneers are more aesthetically pleasing to the eye, due to their transparency and similarity with the enamel. They are also quite immune to the adsorption of pigments and maintain their authentic shape and color. Hence, their endurance and longevity for several years.
As we have already settled, veneers are the best solution when your teeth are chipped, damaged, or broken. Dental veneers cover the front of your tooth and change its size, shape, or color. The disadvantages include the following:
Unfortunately, dental veneers do tend to be expensive. However, it is to be noted that in our clinic you can find them at affordable prices due to Albania’s geolocation and its low taxes and salaries.
Everything done is irreversible, which means, once done, veneers cannot be removed.
After getting dental veneers your teeth may become more impressionable to warm or frosty foods or drinks.
Despite getting veneers, there is a possibility that you get tooth decay.
Even though not a common occurrence, dental veneers can dislodge.
Out of the two dental veneers to be administered, the quickest and fastest way, are ultimately composite veneers. That is because they can be done in the same visit. Contrariwise, porcelain veneers will take you more than two visits.
With the right and proper care, porcelain veneers’ longevity varies from ten to fifteen years. On the contrary, composite veneers have a low endurance and durability of only four to eight years.
As mentioned before, due to its translucent props, porcelain makes the porcelain veneer look identical to the way a real tooth does. Whilst resin-composite looks great, porcelain is still unmatched. Another benefit of porcelain veneers is that they are resistant to stains, while resin-composite ones stain like natural teeth.
Because of the pros they have, porcelain veneers have a higher price compared to composite veneers. The process of getting porcelain veneers takes not only more time but also more expertise and resources.
Though in most cases dental veneers are applicable, there do exist cases when dental veneers should be avoided:
Furthermore, you can always call us and set a date and time for your appointment so we can advise you on what you need and if you are the right candidate.
Firstly, a discussion face-to-face with the patient, to understand his/her expectations and also for them to understand the procedure is irreversible and which are the general steps of the procedure. Once agreed upon, the prints of the upper and the lower jaw, along with the photographs of the teeth are taken. The tooth prints are then sent to the dental lab, which, under the dentist’s instructions and the patient’s needs, produces the optimal teeth for the patient. Please do note that our clinic has its laboratory, with the latest advanced technologies, and can offer your both consultation and creation of the dental veneers.
The diagnostic wax teeth are shown to the patient, giving him a taste of what’s to come with the final result. Most of the time though, it is difficult for the patient to understand the final result from diagnostic wax, which is exactly why we go a step further from other clinics. We create a mock-up technique and show the patient on spot the final result.
The third appointment is the longest one. This whole phase happens after the patient has agreed with the shown result. Once decided, the needed teeth treatment is done, the final impression is taken and the “unpolished” faces are prepared, which then leads to the faces of porcelain being ready.
The fourth appointment is where the first rehearsal takes place so the dentist and the patient can check whether everything is expected when taking the final tooth print.
The fifth appointment is the final one. It is the appointment in which the shape and the color of the faces prepared can be seen and the crucial alteration can be made. When the changes aren’t many or aren’t large, the gluing of veneers to the teeth starts. When the changes are big or considerable, it is time to schedule another appointment.
We try to make every procedure in our clinic painless and it is possible since every procedure is done with the help of local or general anesthesia. So, the simple answer is that “No, the placement of porcelain veneers is not hurtful”. And afterward, the pain is easily stopped with simple painkillers.
Yes. Whenever we want to remove the in-between the teeth gaps, in such cases when the patient requests a teeth enlargement or a teeth’s change of color, then yes, dental veneers can be placed without grinding them.
Absolutely yes! We are open to showing you any picture you want to see so you can see the changes, and the differences between before and after. It is to be noted however that no patient and no case are the same so the results might be different for you too.
What to choose? Porcelain veneers or resin-composite veneers? It is a question that highly concerns those who have decided to change their smile.
