Dental veneers are a great way to improve the aesthetic appearance of your smile without compromising the natural structure of your teeth. Veneers are a thin shell-shaped layered structure that is placed over the visible part of the front teeth.

The procedure includes the following steps:

• application of anesthesia to the treated area;
• a space is prepared in the tooth enamel for veneers;
• teeth are measured;
• a temporary veneer is placed on the tooth;
• making permanent veneers takes several days in a laboratory with CAD-CAM technologies;
• installation of veneers using cement applied to the tooth enamel;
• fixation with ultraviolet.

Special care after the procedure is not required. All that is needed is to avoid jaw injuries and sudden changes in temperature. It is not recommended to gnaw nuts or open bottles with your teeth. Also, do not eat ice cream immediately after hot coffee (to avoid a sharp temperature drop).

To brush your teeth, you need to choose a paste with a small content of abrasive ingredients and use dental floss. The main thing is to visit the dentist regularly and maintain oral health. Poor hygiene leads to cavities and destroys teeth. As a result, veneers fail prematurely and re-installation is required.

The price of veneers in Istanbul is several times lower than in European medical centers.

The price for the installation of veneers in Turkey:

• zirconium veneers – from €180;
• E-max veneers – from €290;

• composite connection – from €40-150.

Istanbul is the largest city in the country, which has a rich history. To make your medical trip as comfortable as possible, you can install veneers in Istanbul and at the same time have a good time in this tourist city.

Veneers are special dental overlays that allow to eliminate aesthetic and functional problems with your teeth.

Main 4 types of veneers:

• Ceramic veneers.

Porcelain, among all other existing materials, is closest in appearance to natural tooth enamel. It is highly durable, does not change color, and it is translucent. The combination of these characteristics allows to achieve almost complete naturalness. Teeth look natural even at close range. Ceramic veneers in Istanbul are placed both on the front teeth and on the canines. The method is suitable in cases of the depulpation with damaged teeth after treatment. The main disadvantage is the lengthy process of making veneers and the need to grind down tooth enamel. The price of ceramic veneers in Istanbul is much higher than composite ones.

• Zirconia veneers.

Zirconia is highly durable. At the heart of the veneers is a frame on which the ceramic mass is applied. When producing the western technology CAD/CAM is applied. It involves three-dimensional milling of the element on special automated equipment. The advantages of these veneers include color stability and high reliability. They do not darken and have a long service life. However, the price of veneers will be even higher.

• Composite veneers.

They are made of filling material. In Istanbul, these veneers are made right in the dentist’s office when the patient comes to the appointment. Composite veneers are usually placed on chewing teeth. This is usually necessary for the restoration of only a few teeth. The enamel does not wear off. The cost of this type of veneer is not very high compared to ceramics but the service life is much shorter.

• Ceramic veneers E-max.

E-max ceramic veneers based on lithium disilicate are considered modern and most aesthetic. Lithium disilicate crystals have the same translucency as natural tooth enamel, so veneers made from this material look like real human teeth. Their distinguishing feature is durability.

This material has a very low thermal conductivity, that is, it reduces the sensitivity of teeth to temperature changes. E-max veneers are thin but very strong: they are able to withstand a strong chewing load. The process of installing veneers is painless. Lithium disilicate is biocompatible with human tissues. It takes root well and does not cause allergic reactions.

With the help of E-max veneers, you can restore the correct shape of the tooth. This type of cosmetic veneer works even in difficult clinical cases. E-max porcelain veneers do not darken over time.

Veneers have a fairly long service life. However, it is important to take appropriate precautions. With proper care, veneers can last 10 to 30 years or more. 

Dental veneers are a simple and safe outpatient procedure. However, it is necessary to follow these recommendations before installing them:

• stop taking aspirin and other blood anticoagulants a week before the procedure;
• tell your doctor if you are allergic to any drug;
• do not smoke 24 hours before surgery;
• do not drink alcoholic beverages 24 hours before surgery, as this may affect anesthesia;
• Tell your doctor if you are taking medicines for chronic or acute illnesses.

Veneers are structures that require careful handling and care. This does not require a special investment of time and energy. All dental tips for caring for teeth with veneers come down to standard ones, like after filling or whitening.

The main recommendations after installing veneers:

• Special attention must be paid to dental hygiene. Namely, thorough cleansing should be done at least twice a day. Also, do not forget about the care in the interdental spaces.
• It is necessary to brush your teeth very gently during the first few days after veneers are installed.
• Avoid solid foods and sticky gum or candy for a while.
• Avoid anything that can put undue stress on your teeth, such as chewing on very solid
• For patients who grind their teeth at night, it is better to use a night guard.

Ideal cases for veneers are when you need to quickly correct defects in the dentition, tighten underdeveloped teeth, and eliminate the wedge-shaped effect. They are also suitable for correcting small enamel erosion. However, in some cases, dental overlays cannot be installed.

Contraindications include:

• strongly pronounced malocclusion;
• lack of chewing teeth;
• pathological abrasion of teeth;
• habit of grinding teeth (bruxism);
• the absence of more than half of the tooth or a large filling on the inner surface;
• dental treatment with resorcinol (formalin method).

Veneers are not installed when caries or gum disease is detected. If only one tooth in a row is severely damaged or has a crack, a crown is placed on it, and the rest of the teeth are covered with veneers.
