TECHNIQUES FOR DENTAL PORCELAIN VENEER FABRICATION

1. Traditional or Prepped Porcelain Veneers Requires the removal of tooth structure equal to the thickness of the veneer. This allows the porcelain to lie flush with the other teeth. Sometimes more than just the enamel needs to be removed which makes the procedure irreversible. In recent years, however, other veneer options have emerged that reduces — or even eliminates — this tooth alteration. No-prep veneers are so thin they can be applied to a tooth with virtually no preparation. A more common option, minimal-prep, requires only a minor reshaping with an abrasive tool to ensure the fitted veneer looks as natural as possible. Because of their thinness, these veneers also don’t have to fit under the gum line like standard veneers. 2. Prepless, No-preparation or No-Grinding Dental Veneers With no-preparation veneers, there may be minimal preparation of tooth structure, but not to the extent required for traditional versions. There is no extensive grinding, cutting, or filing down. Because it is a less invasive procedure, there is often no need for a local anaesthetic either, and patients can enjoy a lower risk of side effects. Both versions are adhesively bonded to the facial surface, or front, of the teeth. To obtain no- or minimal-prep veneers, your tooth enamel needs to be in good, healthy shape. They’re also best suited for people with small or worn teeth, narrow smiles (the side teeth can’t be seen from the front), or slightly stained or misshapen teeth. Because there’s little invasiveness, these low preparation veneers won’t typically create tooth sensitivity and they can often be applied without any form of anaesthesia. And because tooth structure isn’t removed, they can be “uninstalled” to return to your natural look. Of course, that’s not always an easy process since the bonding between veneer and the enamel is quite strong, although today’s lasers can be used to detach the veneer quite easily. If you’d like to consider these minimally invasive veneers, talk to us. If you’re a good candidate, you may be able to gain a new smile without much change to your natural teeth.

Advantages of Prepless/No-prep Dental Veneers over Traditional Veneers

Convenience aside and the benefit of not getting any numbing on most cases, No-prep or no-grinding veneers have many notable benefits: Less Invasive The procedure is significantly less invasive than traditional veneers. Your dentist only needs to cut down, file, or grind down minimal amounts of the tooth, if any at all. Because drilling is not required, there is no need for an anesthetic injection. Conservative No-prep veneers are a good option if you’re concerned with conserving tooth enamel. No enamel removal significantly decreases the likelihood of developing sensitivity from the procedure. Reversible For those worried about making an irreversible change to their smile, no-prep veneers can actually be removed. Note: Although removal is possible, the procedure cannot be reversed without some damage to your enamel. Bond The bond of the porcelain to the teeth is stronger than it is with traditional veneers because the veneer is bonded directly to the enamel, rather than to the dentin.

Tooth Wear Treatment – 5 Effective Solutions for a Healthy Smile

Tooth Wear Treatment

Tooth Wear Treatment Melbourne CBD

Traditionally, tooth decay and gum disease have been the main threats to teeth, but perfect teeth are increasingly wearing down or dissolving away.

The irreversible loss of tooth surface is referred to as tooth wear. The resulting structural loss can have an adverse effect on appearance, function, and sensitivity. The damage can also become expensive and difficult to repair.
Abrasion, attrition, and erosion are the three main types of tooth wear.

Because different types of tooth wear frequently coexist, determining the type of tooth wear present can be difficult at times.

Tooth Wear Treatment Melbourne CBD

Abrasion

Tooth Wear Treatment Melbourne CBD

Abrasion is the mechanical loss of tooth structure caused by a foreign element rubbing or scraping against the tooth rather than tooth to tooth contact.

When abrasion is caused by a habit, such as pencil biting, the pattern of notching or chipping corresponds to the habit.

If possible, please stop the habit; if this is not possible, please discuss

Grooves, notches, cracking, and chipping of teeth are common, as is gum tissue recession and root notching.
The pattern of wear will correspond to the causative factor or habit.
Teeth may be painless or sensitive depending on the rate of wear. Abrasion is frequently associated with excessive tooth brushing and abrasive toothpastes.

Attrition

Tooth Wear Treatment Melbourne CBD

The wearing down of teeth and/or restorations as a result of tooth-to-tooth contact is referred to as attrition.

It happens when opposing teeth come into contact for extended periods of time and at higher pressures than usual.

Clenching is the act of squeezing the teeth together.

Bruxing is the act of grinding one’s teeth together.

Because these acts (chewing and swallowing) are not part of normal function, they are referred to as parafunction.

Our teeth should only meet for a few minutes every 24 hours, but if we are parafunctioning, this increases significantly and causes teeth to wear.

What will I do if I suspect I have dental attrition?

Dental attrition symptoms may include:

Back teeth flattening, natural cusps wear flat
Front teeth shortening with flat angular edges
Wear facets that perfectly correspond to a corresponding facet in the opposing arch of teeth.
Yellowing of the tops of teeth as enamel wears away to reveal softer dentine beneath.
Increased tooth wear, particularly when combined with Erosion and Abrasion
Teeth and restorations chipping and cracking
Teeth can be painless or painful.
A white line in the cheek or indentations on the sides of the tongue near the biting surfaces may appear.
Tori are areas of extra bone that form around teeth, such as those adjacent to lower premolars.

What should I do to reduce my chances of dental attrition / parafunction?

Sometimes tooth wear is adaptive and will have stopped on its own.

It is prudent to request that the dental team take clinical photographs and impressions for study models to allow for future comparison.

Avoid using chewing gum excessively.
If you notice yourself consciously clenching your teeth together, try to break the habit.
Determine whether, when, and why any parafunction occurs.
This could be due to stress, bite differences, habits, or neurological characteristics.
The dental team will be able to direct you to the proper diagnosis and treatment.
Counseling, exercises, medication, splint therapy and/or protection, equilibration, restoration, or orthodontic /orthognathic surgery may be used.
Because all tooth wear is likely to be multifactorial, preventive measures for erosion and abrasion should also be taken.

Erosion

Tooth Wear Treatment Melbourne CBD

Acid attack is the cause of dental erosion.

Acid in the mouth can be caused by dietary, gastric, or occupational factors.

When acid comes into contact with the surface of your teeth, the enamel softens and loses some of its mineral content.

Your saliva will gradually neutralise the acid in your mouth, restoring it to its natural balance.

However, if the acid attack occurs frequently enough, the teeth lose their ability to repair themselves, and tiny particles of enamel can be washed or worn away.

Minerals dissolve from the tooth surface and, like a cliff face with a moving tide, eventually collapses and is lost forever.

The most common causes of erosion are acidic foods and beverages.

Fruit, pickles, fizzy drinks, energy and sports drinks, wine, squashes, and fruit juices are all examples.
Many of these foods and beverages also contain natural or added sugar, which can contribute to tooth decay.
Tooth wear is caused by a diet high in acidic foods and beverages.
The amount of erosion that occurs is determined by the type of acid, calcium chelating properties, temperature, and exposure time.
The lower a product’s pH, the more acidic it is, but citrous fruits appear worse because they bind (chelate) more calcium from the tooth.
As a result, orange juice is actually worse than cola
Any food or drink with a pH lower than 5 may cause tooth wear and tooth sensitivity.

The pH of some common foods and drinks are indicated below:
- Milk pH 6.9
- Flavoured milk pH 6.7
- Tap water pH 6.0
- Cheddar cheese pH 5.9
- Coffee pH 5.0
- Beer pH 4.5
- Orange juice pH 3.5
- Apple juice pH 3.4
- Grapefruit pH 3.3
- Pickles pH 3.2
- Sports energy drinks pH 3.0
- Common soft drink pH 2.7
- Cola pH 2.5
- Red wine pH 2.5
- Lemon juice pH 2.2
- Vinegar pH 2.0

Among the other factors that contribute to erosive tooth wear are:

A dry mouth, which increases the risk of acid attack damage
Acid erosion is increased by frothing or swishing acidic drinks around the mouth.
Erosion and dental abrasion frequently coexist.
Brushing teeth too hard causes abrasion, which exacerbates erosion if the tooth surface has already been softened by acid.
Teeth grinding can exacerbate erosion.
Which gastric conditions cause erosion?
Vomiting (eg morning sickness, bulimia and excessive alcohol) (eg morning sickness, bulimia and excessive alcohol)
Reflux of acid (eg gastro oesophageal reflux disease, hiatus hernia, heartburn)
A variety of medications, including vitamin C, aspirin, and some iron preparations, are acidic and may contribute to acid erosion.
Which occupations are at risk of being eroded?
Acid exposure is a risk in industrial processes, but hopefully it is adequately protected nowadays.
Wine tasters who are professionals
Competitive swimmers in chlorinated pools with poor quality control (again less likely nowadays)

What should I do to reduce my chances of dental erosion?

Eat a well balanced diet and limit your intake of acidic and sugary fo ds and beverages.

Limit snacking so that acidic foods and drinks are only consumed at mealtimes.
Consume foods that act as a buffer by quickly neutralising saliva pH. (eg. dairy products contain a protein called casein which protects teeth from acid)
Avoid swishing acidic drinks around your mouth, as this increases your chances of tooth decay and tooth wear.
When possible, use a straw to reduce the amount of liquid that comes into contact with your teeth.
Brushing your teeth immediately after eating or drinking acidic drinks will cause tooth enamel to soften.
Allow at least an hour before brushing, for example, after wine in the evening and brushing before fruit juices for breakfast.
Use a remineralizing paste, such as GI Tooth Mouse or GI MI. Apply after meals and before going to bed. Apply with your finger and leave on your teeth without rinsing.
To make your enamel more resistant to erosion, use a toothpaste with a high fluoride content, such as Duraphat.
Drink plenty of water throughout the day, especially if you’re exercising, and avoid caffeinated beverages, which cause dehydration.
Have any underlying medical condition treated. Use a neutralising agent, such as antacid tablets, if necessary.

Tooth Wear Treatment Options

There are various ways to prevent, stop and resolve tooth wear/tooth surface loss. The following are ways of dealing with the causes of tooth wear described above.

Leave and Monitor

The benefit is that there is no treatment and associated costs, but the disadvantage is that the tooth wear may worsen, lowering the prognosis of the eventual tooth restoration (as tooth structure is now poorer).

Splint

A splint is something that covers your teeth’s biting surface. It is made of hard acrylic and is custom-fit to your teeth. The splint works by protecting your teeth while you grind, causing you to wear down the acrylic rather than your own teeth. It is a quick and effective solution, but people who grind their teeth frequently may require replacements. Splints can also help with temporomandibular joint pain and discomfort.

Crowns, composite build up

Tooth wear causes teeth to appear flat, short, and discoloured, which is unappealing.

Worn-down teeth can be repaired with composite white filling material or crowns or veneers. Specific shades of these restorations are chosen to match the rest of your teeth and are shaped in accordance with the golden proportion. The best materials are used to achieve a natural result and a beautiful smile. Crowns can also be used to keep a heavily restored tooth from breaking apart. There are various materials with varying strengths and properties. Your dentist will advise you on the best option.

Identifying and addressing the source of stress

Stress and depression can both contribute to grinding and eating disorders. Stopping tooth surface loss becomes extremely difficult without identifying and resolving the sources of stress. Talking to a friend, family member, or medical practitioner is one possible solution, as is meditation, pursuing a hobby that makes you happy, taking time off work to travel, or visiting a beauty salon/fashion store to boost self-esteem. Because each person is unique, some solutions are better suited to one person than another. Stress is a growing issue among people today, but there are many things available to make life more enjoyable.

Use of the proper brush and technique

Many people damage their teeth simply by using the wrong type of brush and brushing technique. A hard brush will damage the tooth enamel and gums, causing tooth wear and recession. Symptoms include cold hypersensitivity and tooth discoloration, as well as cavitation at the tooth-gum interface. It is advised that you use a soft or medium toothbrush with gentle pressure (imagine a force just enough to indent a ripe tomato). Certain electric toothbrushes are also advantageous because they torque out when you brush too hard.

DENTAL BONDING AND COMPOSITE VENEERS

Dental bonding is a leading affordable cosmetic procedure that is full of restorative benefits. Using composite resins, Dr. Castro can repair your chipped front teeth or hide minor aesthetic defects.

Direct composite bonding is used to recreate a smile in an additive manner, where little or no tooth reduction is needed. Direct bonding, in the hands of a skilled operator, is less costly than porcelain veneers and crowns and can be long-lasting with proper maintenance.

Bonding is a perfect solution for treating minor cosmetic flaws. At your preliminary consultation, you will see exactly how dental bonding is applicable to you. Candidates for this procedure usually have good oral health, but their smile needs corrections because teeth are chipped, discolored, crooked, gapped or misaligned.

Patients can opt for transitional bonding that is used for anything from a mock-up to a full-mouth rehabilitation. The transitional bonding allows the patients to transition into more permanent dentistry as he or she can afford.

Closing Gapped Teeth

When you have gaps between your teeth, this can cause issues with overall smile aesthetics. A gap between your two print teeth can lead to self-consciousness, for instance, as can gaps between your other prominent teeth. In such cases, you may be reticent to smile, speak, or laugh, which can affect first impressions and social interactions.

Dental Bonding for Very Minor Gaps

If you have a very minor tooth gap that is purely cosmetic in nature, a good option to consider is dental bonding. Dental bonding uses a tooth-colored resin that is painted onto the tooth in order to build out tooth structure and fill the gap. The bonding material looks like natural tooth structure and can accomplish a great deal.

Porcelain Veneers for Cosmetic Spacing Issues

Porcelain veneers are also a great option for minor gaps that are cosmetic in nature. Porcelain veneers are thin shells of dental ceramic that are fixed in place over a tooth's front surface. These shells will help mask imperfections, improving the overall look and size of a tooth. The porcelain veneers blend in seamlessly with natural tooth structure as well, meaning that no one will realize that a veneer is place, even when up close.

Orthodontic Care Can Address More Serious Gaps

For major gaps between your teeth, the ideal option to consider is orthodontic treatment. The use of braces or Invisalign aligners can help shift the position of misaligned teeth, closing gaps and helping address issues with crowding and asymmetry as well. The ideal orthodontic approach will be determined by your dentist based on your age, the severity of your spacing issues, and other factors.

Which treatment is ideal for me?

The ideal treatment for you and your needs will depend on the nature of your dental problem. Cosmetic tooth gaps are better dealt with by bonding and veneers, while tooth gaps that impact the overall alignment of your teeth are best treated through orthodontic care.

WORN DOWN TEETH TREATMENT

Repair the Side Effects of Teeth Grinding with Cosmetic Dentistry

Whether it's politics, parenting, or work that has you unconsciously grinding your teeth day and night, stopping this involuntary movement is the first battle. TMJ treatment is easily accomplished with a customized oral appliance or bite guard. But then you may discover that, even though your grinding has ceased, your teeth have been left in poor shape because of the habit. Cosmetic dentistry can help.

Smile Makeovers After Teeth Grinding

After the source of your teeth grinding has been addressed and treated, your cosmetic dentist will focus on correcting the damage teeth grinding created. Some of the most common cosmetic dentistry treatments for teeth grinding patients include:

Dental crowns: The extreme forces of grinding and clenching teeth can lead to broken, chipped, or cracked teeth. But these solutions are not difficult to repair with porcelain tooth crowns, which can be used to make teeth uniform and even. Dental crowns, in fact, are one of the most durable and long-lasting cosmetic dentistry solutions.

Porcelain veneers: The go-to cosmetic dentistry solution for repairing teeth that have been worn down from tooth grinding, porcelain veneers recreate the natural look of teeth. Teeth that have been subject to grinding or clenching are usually similar in length and worn straight across. Porcelain veneers can correct these issues, making teeth the proper length, size, and color that will make your smile look amazing.

Cosmetic bonding: You don't want teeth that have already been damaged to compromise the integrity of neighboring teeth. A simple tooth bonding repair will fix jagged or chipped teeth due to grinding so that your smile look like new with the least amount of invasiveness possible.

What Will Happen If You Avoid Teeth Grinding Treatment?

Eventually, if you leave your teeth grinding problem unchecked, this habit will just continue to damage your teeth. The wear and tear can move quickly once your tooth's enamel has been completely stripped and the dentin layer of the tooth becomes exposed. Plus, opening that up to air is just downright painful.

Your oral health is important – you want to look good because your smile is stunning, but you also want to have a healthy mouth and gums

LASER TEETH WHITENING

A date, a birthday, a graduation, a wedding, a photoshoot…there are infinite reasons why patients may want a quick professional teeth whitening.

The good news? We can do that.

Sapphire™ will get you whiter teeth in just one visit!

Sapphire provides:

The most advanced whitening technology available
Dramatic results in just one visit

Guaranteed lightening results

PERMANENT TEETH WHITENING

Whitening your teeth with a cosmetic dentist is a completely safe procedure. Some patient experienced discomfort which varies from person to person and depends on the method used. In most cases, adults experience very minor discomfort that lasts 1-3 days after the treatment.

Is Teeth Whitening Permanent?

Teeth whitening is not permanent. It can generally last from a few months up to three years, however, this depends on your individual circumstances. The effect of the treatment will be impacted if you frequently smoke or drink dark liquids such as red wine, tea, or coffee.

Because teeth whitening is not permanent, you will need to maintain your bright smile with continued treatments. For regular patients, this upkeep can be costly in long terms

Who Can't Have Teeth Whitening Treatment?

There are potential risks associated with teeth whitening treatment, so it is not recommended for pregnant or lactating women. It is similarly not recommended if you are allergic to peroxide. If you have receding gums you may be more likely to experience tooth sensitivity.

Patients who have repeatedly have the Teeth Whitening procedure in the past and not happy with on going maintenance or not a good candidate for the procedure, there is an alternative options. It's called Prepless Porcelain Veneer.

REPLACING MISSING TEETH WITH DENTAL CROWNS AND BRIDGES

Tooth loss can cause a number of problems ranging from oral health issues to self-consciousness and poor self-esteem. Fortunately, there are several restoration options available in cosmetic dentistry that allow patients to replace a missing tooth with a durable prosthetic and enjoy a better quality of life. One of these options is a dental bridge, which fills a gap between two adjacent teeth by anchoring a false tooth to these surrounding teeth. Patients who need restorative dental treatment after they've lost a tooth may be excellent candidates for dental bridges.

A dental bridge is designed to replace one or more missing teeth. It is an artificial tooth that is secured into place and supported by surrounding natural teeth. Fortunately, a bridge looks and feels like a natural tooth and can allow patients to chew and eat normally. In addition, a dental bridge may help patients speak without any issues, as bridges can fill in the gaps between teeth affecting positively the tongue's placement and how patients sound.

INVISALIGN

Do you need braces but have delayed getting them because you are embarrassed of the noticeable wire and ugly metal brackets? We offers Invisalign® clear braces to patients that qualify and are looking for an alternative to the inconvenience of standard braces. Invisalign technology Involves clear braces that are removable and are completely comfortable teeth aligners customized for teeth straightening over time.

Only you will know you are teeth straightening!

Many people with various types of oral problems can qualify for Invisalign, such as:

Gapped Teeth
Overbite
Underbite
Open Bite
Overly Crowded Teeth
Crossbite

STRAIGHTEN TEETH QUICKLY WITH INSTANT ORTHODONTICS

Instant Orthodontics - Straight Teeth Without Braces

If you have crooked teeth and don't want to wear braces for years and retainers for even more years then there is a very good alternative. No, I am not talking about wearing Invisalign for years either and retainers after that. Some of us just don't want to pick food out of our teeth for years. We want instant orthodontics.

Instant Orthodontics is not a misnomer. It's as simple as braces versus porcelain veneers. Braces can take 2 to 3 years to straighten your teeth. Porcelain veneers can give you that same look in as little as 2 to 3 weeks. Instead of wearing braces, we shape your teeth and apply a thin porcelain veneer. The result is a beautiful smile showing off your new, straight teeth.

Instant Orthodontics can also give you a brighter smile than you've been able to achieve with brushing or bleaching. Porcelain veneers are the color we love to see when people smile. And we love to see people smile!

AFFORDABLE SMILE MAKEOVER WITH SNAP ON SMILE

With cosmetic dentistry the main focus is on improving a person's smile. Most people find that they have more confidence if they have a better smile. That confidence tends to elude those who feel they have financial constraints to go to the real Cosmetic Dentistry procedures. Thankfully, Snap on Smile is here to help fix all of the problems at an affordable prices at only a fraction of the cost.

Because of this reasons, probably snap-on smile is one of the best ideas to hit the cosmetic dentistry field in recent time. It is a device that looks just like teeth and is created using a mold of your teeth so that it will snap on perfectly over yours.

Have your Treatment now in Affordable Monthly Payment

FLEXIBLE INTEREST FREE PAYMENT PLANS

Have the treatment you need/want and rest easy knowing you can manage the payments monthly to fit within your budget!

Investing in your health and well being is very important. At Vogue Smiles Melbourne we understand that getting the dental treatment you need and want can sometimes require a significant investment. Elective Cosmetic dental care can be expensive. There is usually no way around it. Unlike medical insurance, most dental insurances have a maximum per year that is insignificant to the price of a smile makeover. With different Financial Assistance options that we offer, expense will not prevent you from benefiting from the quality cosmetic dentistry procedure you desire and need.

We understand that one payment simply may not be a viable option for some patients, so we also offer several alternatives to help you when paying for your dental care. We can assist you in organising thrid party dental financing that allows you to begin treatment now and pay for the costs over time with interest free or extended payment plans. Signing up is easy for all our patients who qualify - in just a few moments, we can create a simple payment plan tailored to your budget.

Our dental payment plans will enable you to receive the dental services you need or want now, without having to sacrifice extensive amounts of money. We recommend discussing your budget with your dentist during your free initial consultation so that we can create a treatment plan that will take this into consideration.
