Laminated Porcelains (Leaf Porcelains)

Elegant and flawless teeth are every person’s dream. Regardless of age, gender and profession, everyone has a right to a beautiful and aesthetic smile. With the so-called laminated porcelain, the sheet porcelain, a thin layer of porcelain is applied to the tooth to cover the slight defects in the tooth. If we look more closely at laminated porcelain, it is used to cover the colour differences of the teeth to eliminate the colour differences caused by fractures, cracks or fillings. When using sheet porcelain, only the front surface is lightly filed down instead of cutting the whole or half tooth. In this way, the anterior teeth are given a perfect aesthetic appearance.

Because the substructure of the laminated porcelain does not contain a metal backing, it gives the teeth a natural look. You can change the colour, shape and size of your teeth with sheet porcelain. This method makes it easy to join the tooth spacing.

Laminated porcelain will last for years with proper oral care. Due to the strong adhesives used with today’s advanced technology, the likelihood of the porcelain coming off your tooth is very low. With the right choice of practitioner and correct treatment, you can use your laminated porcelain with the comfort of your own teeth. Laminated porcelains are abrasion and stain resistant.

Advantages of Laminated Porcelain (Sheet Porcelain)

  • Since the surface of the teeth is only minimally abraded, it is the most gentle aesthetic method for the teeth.
  • Oral hygiene is more comfortable for the person than with other treatments.
  • You can see the finish applied to your teeth without directly damaging your teeth by making a 3D copy of your teeth and applying it to the sheet coating.
  • You get a natural appearance of the teeth.
  • The amount of superficial discolouration is less than in your natural teeth.
  • The abrasion resistance is quite high.

Disadvantages of Laminated Porcelain (Sheet Porcelain)

  • People who grind or clench their teeth should tell their doctor.
  • It requires a good clinic and a reliable dentist.
  • Despite the strong adhesive, you should avoid breaking hard nuts with your teeth.
