Cynthia - No Grinding Porcelain Veneers

Dr. Muslin sincerely thanks Cynthia for allowing him to show the photos of her dental care and her full face. All photos shown by Dr. Muslin are untouched and unaltered.

Tetracycline Stain

Cynthia has tetracycline stain inside her teeth giving them a dark gray color. The esthetic requirements of cosmetic dentistry are very high because the patient’s desire to keep her natural teeth intact. The opaceous requirements of the porcelain to hide the dark tooth color of the intrinsic tetracycline stain, yet still have light translucency that is natural, place requirements that may be impossible for the average cosmetic dentist.

Porcelain Veneers

Traditional porcelain veneers require that a significant amount of tooth structure be ground away in order to obtain a thickness to the porcelain that can hide the tooth color to tetracycline stain. Cosmetic dentistry traditionally requires grinding down the natural tooth structure for porcelain veneers. Non grinding or non invasive porcelain veneers are not a new technique. A few advanced dentists have been using this technique for many years.

Non Invasive Porcelain Veneers

The artistry and light translucence skills of the cosmetic dentist utilizing the latest in dental bonding technology with the high grade porcelain system as Empress, Procera, Lumineers and bonding technology from Den Mat, Relyx from 3M Corporation can achieve natural looking results. The entire responsibility to select the appropriate bonding system and porcelain technology requires the dentist to understand the internal and external cosmetic light transfusion dynamics. Pick the wrong system and good results are impossible.

The Artistic Cosmetic Dentist

The gift of artistry combined with the technical knowledge of the existing and developing porcelain veneer and porcelain crown systems combined with the varying degrees of opacity available in each system can achieve startling cosmetic results without grinding down the natural teeth. The teeth with the high tech porcelain veneers are virtually indictable form natural teeth.

Porcelain Veneers Look Flawlessly Natural

Bonding is highly technique sensitive requiring purified air, bacteria free and micro contamination free water combined with a super clean dental environment with advanced instrumentation. There are a growing but small number of dental offices that offer this level of care. The quality of the porcelain veneer can have natural light transmission, artistic surface texture to reflect the light, smooth natural tooth contouring and a size and shape balance that rival the best that nature can offer.
