Porcelain Laminates
44 year old, Female, Medium skin tone
During a routine re-care appointment, we suggested a way to improve this patient's smile. We made impressions of the upper and lower arches and sent them to the Dental Laboratory. There, they created a "mock-up" or simulation of the ideal set up, with our input. Due to one thing or another, I did not hear back for several months. One day, I receive a phone call." My son's Bar Mitzvah is in 2 Wks., can you finish before that?". Yes, was the answer and since we had the initial materials for Porcelain Laminate construction(our road-map). We were ready to do everything we needed, in 1 visit and deliver the finished product in the second visit.

Details: What is unique about these Porcelain Veneers or Porcelain Laminates are that they use the Lumineers principles. These are ultra thin, minimal preparation veneers , done without Novocaine and temporaries. The whole preparation took 20 minutes and the patient left the office. Since we were able to show the patient her smile ahead of time, using the prefabricated see through mold, she was able to feel confident and excited about finishing the porcelain laminate process.The smile makeover of smile creation is all about the little details. How much of the teeth show, their length, the color and the way the teeth fit the face. When the rules of smile design are followed, the result is the creation of porcelain veneers that duplicate natural tooth structure
