Kinds and types of dental ceramic veneers

Which type of veneers to use, may depend on many factors, however the most frequent criteria is thickness of needed ceramic and colour of patient’s teeth.

After simulation of the new smile with DSD (Digital Smile Design), we can clearly determine ideal volume of the future teeth.

Based on the needed volume, ceramic veneers are divided into three categories:

• Ceramic veneers are used when the final volume is lesser or similar to the original teeth, or where the teeth keep the same position on the lip, or should be moved slightly inward. The most frequent type of veneers.
• Prepless veneers are used when final volume of teeth is bigger than the original teeth, or when volume is added to move the teeth forward. This case does not require grinding, but adding material.
• Ceramic fragments are used when we wish to add a fragment of tooth, it does not require grinding.

With teeth discoloration we choose the type of ceramic depending on the existing teeth colour, and final colour we wish to achieve.

We mostly use pure ceramic, which imitates perfectly natural tooth, and has excellent resilience. It is used when colour difference is not strong, and if the teeth function is good.
