" While regaining the lost intraoral functions in dentistry, we should aim for the most protective and aesthetic method."
The first area that attracts attention in the external appearance of people is their faces and their smiles. In this sense, the appearance of our teeth is very important in our social relations, social identity and image. A beautiful smile that integrates with healthy teeth adds self-confidence and self-esteem. It gives him respect and admiration in his social life.
Gülümseme ile birlikte bütünlük teşkil eden estetik dişler kişinin kariyer, özgüven ve ağız sağlığı ile birlikte çevresindeki kişilere saygısını ifade etmekle birlikte çevrede de saygı ve hayranlık kazanırlar.
1. Congenital discoloration of teeth or caused by the use of antibiotics in childhood
2. In stained teeth due to fluorine deficiency or excess
3. In anterior region teeth broken as a result of accident and trauma
4. In anterior tooth decays with too much material loss (in cases where there is too much tissue loss to be filled)
5. In long and bad-looking teeth caused by gingival recessions
6. In teeth with aesthetic problems after gingival treatments
7. In restoring the aesthetics of the smile line, which is damaged by congenitally missing or extra teeth
8. Correction of proportional deviations in teeth, gingiva and lip relations
9. In people with too many gums
10. Reshaping the teeth lost due to different reasons in the anterior region in accordance with lip and facial aesthetics
11. In restructuring the old and tired appearance caused by collapses in the face area due to excessive tooth loss and jaw bone meltdown with prostheses
12. In the aesthetic regulation of deformations in the jaw and teeth as a result of undesirable accidents
1. If the discolored teeth can reach their ideal colors with cleaning or teeth whitening methods, the problem can be resolved without the need for aesthetic applications.
2. Orthodontic treatment is a more ideal treatment option for crowding in the anterior region (if there is no excessive caries and gingival diseases). There is no age limit for orthodontic treatments and these treatments can be done with tooth-colored brackets and wires in the middle and advanced age group. Thus, the problem of the appearance of the wires is greatly reduced.
3. The most ideal solution for interdental spaces in the anterior region is to close these spaces with orthodontic treatments.
1.Teeth whitening: If you are not satisfied with your tooth color, you can have the whiteness you want with different whitening methods that can be applied in the dental clinic or at home. Use the methods and materials recommended by your dentist for whitening.
2.Laminated veneers (Aesthetically placing the very thin porcelains formed by abrading 0.2 – 0.4 mm in the anterior region of the anterior teeth):
With laminated application;
Deformities in teeth
Discoloration of teeth
Interdental spaces
Asymmetries in teeth
Teeth that look very small
Irregular teeth
Cracks and fractures on the ends of the front teeth
Irregularities that cause aesthetic problems in the anterior teeth can be corrected.
Laminate is a special porcelain that provides restorations very similar to your natural teeth and preserves its color for many years. It is an extremely protective treatment as it requires very little abrasion on natural teeth.
3.Porcelains: Porcelains are used in order to provide an ideal aesthetic smile by using porcelain materials for people with one or more tooth loss, or people with aesthetic dentistry problems, and people with tooth-gum-lip and smile problems. New research shows that porcelain without metal support in the infrastructure is now recommended. For such applications, the patient should be properly examined by the physician, the radiological findings should be evaluated correctly, the strength of the porcelain structures to be applied should be calculated correctly and these applications should be explained to the patients in detail.
The materials we use in porcelain applications;
1.Laminated
2.Empress
3.Zirconium
4.Cercon (Zirconium Oxide)
5.Galvano
Natural teeth transmit light. As a result, depth and vitality appear in the tooth. Due to the light transmission properties of metal-free porcelain crowns (all-ceramic), their depth and vitality are greater, so that the closest results to natural teeth are obtained.
We normally manufacture the infrastructures of the crown or bridge prostheses we make for the restoration of teeth that have lost excessive material, and we ensure that the upper porcelain is not broken.
Today, infrastructures produced from reinforced porcelain without using metal take the place of metal, and except for exceptional cases, we find it more difficult to keep metal infrastructure among our options in terms of health and aesthetics.

ADVANTAGES:
Since full ceramics transmit light, they create an aesthetic very similar to natural tooth structure, while metal porcelains have a dullness and artificiality, even if they are very well made. For this reason, full ceramics should be preferred especially in anterior teeth.
Metal-supported porcelains give the appearance of a dark space in the mouth as if it were not present in some lights (disco, camera flash, etc.). Full ceramics, on the other hand, react like natural teeth and pass all kinds of light.
Metal-backed porcelains are mechanically bonded to the tooth. Full ceramics, on the other hand, are mechanically and chemically bonded to the tooth (Adhesive Cementation). Therefore, their retention is much higher than metal supports. They fall harder.
Since there is no metal in its substructure, there is no dark (Purple Colored) line at the crown-gingival level. A more aesthetic appearance is provided.
When the gingiva recedes, full porcelain preserves their aesthetic appearance, while metal porcelain creates a bad appearance in the area where they join the tooth.
There is no risk of allergy to some metals (nickel, etc.) used in the infrastructure of metal-supported porcelains in full ceramics.
It is obtained by compressing or milling (cutting) the reinforced porcelain in special machines. It is preferred especially in anterior teeth because of its very good light transmittance.

Today, dentistry technology proposes ZIRCONIA based material that can be used easily in both anterior and posterior teeth as a successful and aesthetic restorative solution; It stands out among other dental materials with its mechanical resistance, biocompatibility and fracture resistance.
The fracture resistance of zirconia-containing aesthetic restorations is between 900 and 1400 MPa, which provides an extraordinary resistance compared to classical methods and shows the durability of the restorations, however, they are much more aesthetic and healthy than metal-ceramic restorations made with traditional methods. Their light transmittance is their biggest difference from metal-ceramic restorations.
Porcelain fillings (Porcelain inlay or Onlay) are fillings with superior aesthetics and durability prepared in the laboratory. Compared to composite fillings, they are much more compatible with the applied tooth and adjacent teeth. This is due to the fact that the filling is prepared outside the mouth in a laboratory environment. After the broken, rotten or old filled part of the tooth is removed, the measurement of the remaining healthy part is taken and sent to the laboratory. The model, which is prepared with a sensitive technology in the laboratory environment, is taken to a special IPS machine and fillings with perfect aesthetics and functions are obtained.
IPS porcelain (Leucide reinforced pressable porcelain) fillings:
* They are tissue-friendly fillings, they are the materials with the highest biological compatibility.
* They are produced with advanced technology.
* In the porcelain filling method, the healthy tooth tissue in the mouth is not touched. With a few changes made on the tooth cavity opened in normal filling, the tooth can be made ready for porcelain filling.
In addition, these porcelains are the materials closest to the hardness of the tooth and most compatible with the gingiva. Since its hardness is very close to the enamel tissue of the tooth, it does not abrade the teeth like other porcelains, nor does it wear out like composite fillings.
Especially in large material losses, composite filling or crown (veneer) should be preferred instead.
