COSMETICS-AESTHETICS  DENTISTRY

​

Using the term "cosmetic" or aesthetic dentistry, we refer to the part of dentistry where we use methods and techniques to improve the shape, color, size and position or inclination of the teeth, in order to finally give a new special smile that fits all over the patient's face, giving him pleasure and confidence. The smile is  perhaps the most important medium  contact us at Take a Smile Dental Clinic  we apply all the new ones  techniques to offer you the smile you dream of.

 

VIEWS AND BLOCKS OF COMPOSITE RESIN

​

Composite resin is a polymeric material with infinite possibilities, which can be used:

To restore all  teeth (anterior and posterior) in their original shape after caries or fracture.  As faces mainly on the front teeth to correct the color, shape, position or to close gaps with  way less invasive but with the need to maintain the result per year.

​

 

SYNTHETIC RESIN SEALS (WHITE SEALS)

​

For restoration of posterior and anterior teeth to their original shape after caries or fracture.

  

PORCELAIN VIEWS

​

While we are talking about porcelain, in fact the materials we use in this technique are of different origins with much better specifications and aesthetics than porcelain. The most advanced material today is Dypiritiko  lithium (EMAX) which we almost always use in our clinic, as its color performance and naturalness reaches 98% of the natural  tooth. Its advantages, in addition to the naturalness it gives to our new smile, are its durability and the permanence of the result without the need for annual maintenance.

​

With the above technique we can:

​

• Correct the shape, color and gradient  of teeth

• To restore a broken front tooth

• To close gaps

• To aesthetically complete a rehabilitation incident  loss of vertical dimension due to abrasion  in people who gnash or grind their teeth, in a treatment plan with total oral restoration.

 

THE  this technique is not particularly considered  invasive in relation to  wreaths. The dentist removes 0.5 to 0.8 mm  by slightly interfering with the outer surface of the tooth, often without the need for local anesthesia. He then copies the area with an impression material in a tray (meters) or with the use of a special recording camera and sends them to the dental laboratory together with all the necessary information and photos to help the craftsman to give the appropriate morphology, color and shape to the faces. . Until the work is prepared by the laboratory, we make transitions in the doctor's office  restorations. In 7-8 days the faces are ready to be placed in the mouth, where they are fixed to the teeth with a special mortar (eraser).  A certain sensitivity to cold / hot may appear due to the treatment that the teeth have undergone and their reaction to the plaster that we use for the gluing which usually subsides in a few days.

​

We treat the faces like our natural teeth, avoiding opening bottles and breaking nuts. If you have a habit of clenching or grinding your teeth, we recommend making a splint for the night to avoid minor fractures.  Today, new materials, in combination with computer-aided design and manufacturing (Computed Aided Design / Computed Aided Manufacture CAD / CAM) technology enable us to achieve perfect applications on manufactured teeth, a factor very important for the longevity of the work.

​

The above technique, in combination with the very good aesthetic properties of these new materials, have as  results to achieve smiles that you can hardly distinguish the faces from  the natural teeth.

 

PORCELAIN INSERTS AND INSERTS

​

Today, in cases of great loss of tooth substance from caries or fracture, we have the possibility of applying this technique in contrast to earlier times when the tooth had to be ground for a crown (case).  And in this technique the materials we use are not porcelain but other new more advanced materials (EMAX, composite resin and monolithic zirconia).

​

These are basically large occlusions (fillings) that are not made by the dentist in the patient's mouth IMMEDIATELY, but are prepared  from the laboratory and are placed ready in the mouth by the dentist using a special mortar (INDIRECT OCCUPATIONS).  This means that the dentist after cleaning the decayed or broken tooth will give the cavity a shape, will capture the area and will send the measure to the laboratory together with all the necessary information (color-closure) and in 4 to 5 days will have doctor ready the resin insert, EMAX or zirconium, to be glued to the cavity. This construction gives the tooth its original shape and at the same time as a construction it is much more durable than the common filling.

 

ALL-CERAMIC CROWNS

​

The well-known lids, hoops or cases are now offered in all-ceramic form, ie without the metal base. All-ceramic crowns give us excellent aesthetics without the unsightly graying  in the gums they used to have  the metal-ceramic crowns.

​

We select them when:

There are many and large old fillings as a result of which the integrity of the tooth is at stake.

​

We have a tooth loss and the patient does not want to enter the implant procedure (Bridge).

In the past, all-ceramic crowns were mainly recommended for the front aesthetic area due to cost  and reason for endurance. Today, people are looking for excellent aesthetics and less metal in the mouth, the advanced  materials and construction methods  have made all-ceramic constructions much more  durable from metal-ceramic and  so  tend to become the material of choice for all areas in the oral cavity.
