Porcelain veneers for a beautiful and attractive smile

To improve the appearance of the teeth and correct any damage they have suffered, patients have at their disposal porcelain veneers or dental contact lenses, which are thin porcelain Veneers, customized for the patient and bonded to the front of the front teeth. They are able to change the aesthetics of the smile.

With this procedure, your smile can look more beautiful and your self-esteem can also benefit. Porcelain veneers can solve a variety of aesthetic problems in the teeth, such as stains and discoloration, chips, enamel wear, small fractures, closing gaps between teeth (diastheme), enlarging small teeth, changing the shape of teeth, among others.

What is the difference between a contact lens and a veneer?

Basically, the differences between dental lenses and veneers are their thickness, the material used and the preparation technique.

Porcelain veneers

In the porcelain veneer technique, the dentist needs to:

Wear away a LARGER amount of the tooth enamel (approximately 1mm).
SILICONE molds and impression trays are made. While the permanent veneers are being prepared, the patient wears the temporary veneers.
The material used is generally common feldspathic porcelain, made using a handmade technique (more fragile).

The purpose of wearing down the teeth is to make room for the porcelain veneer and increase its thickness. Without wear, the teeth would be overcontoured, or have too much volume. In addition, the porcelain veneer might not fit so perfectly on the tooth.

Dental contact lenses

In the contact lens technique, the dentist needs to:

Wear away a LESSER amount of the tooth enamel (approximately 0.3mm).
Molds are made with an INTRA ORAL SCANNER. While the permanent veneers are being prepared, the patient wears temporary lenses or a mockup. Sometimes it is not necessary to use temporary lenses because the wear does not affect the aesthetics.
The material used is generally porcelain MADE ON A COMPUTERIZED MILL (more resistant and precise).

Like any restoration, porcelain veneers need to be properly cared for and periodically reassessed. Patients should also maintain the hygiene of the tooth surfaces. We now also make ultra-thin porcelain veneers, which are dental contact lenses. The application of dental lenses requires little or no wear to the tooth structure. Find out more by clicking here.

Will I lose my dentures during dental bone grafting?

Before answering this question, it is necessary to explain that there are different dental bone grafting techniques, each with its own complexity and extent. This directly influences the guidelines for the post-operative period and recovery time.

Learn all about bone grafting with implants

In most cases it is possible to use a prosthesis while the graft heals

Dental bone grafting to allow the placement of just one implant, where the patient has teeth to be used as support for the prosthesis, is not the same as block grafting to place several implants in a full arch, which is considered more complex.

However, in many cases, it is possible to attach a temporary resin prosthesis, which is suitable for helping the tooth graft recover and heal, as well as allowing the patient not to be without teeth for the duration of the treatment.

After the recovery period, the temporary prosthesis is replaced by a permanent prosthesis made from the material chosen jointly by the patient and the dentist (resin, metal-ceramic or fully esthetic zirconia).

Read about graftless implants

Types of tooth graft

Particulate Graft

Particulate grafting is used in small reconstructions, such as filling in a site where there has been bone loss or in the maxillary sinus lift technique. The biomaterials used in particulate bone grafting are implanted to replace or repair atrophied tissue.

They can be of natural origin (a small amount of crushed human bone from the patient themselves or from a tissue bank for transplants, or freeze-dried bovine bone powder).

The particulate graft can also be made of synthetic material produced in the laboratory, fully biocompatible with osteoconductive properties (attraction of bone tissue-forming cells) or synthetic vitreous materials (synthetic hydroxyapatite).

The particulate dental graft is deposited in situ and then covered with a collagen membrane. In favorable cases, the dental implant can be placed on the same day as the graft, followed by a temporary prosthesis.

Block Grafting

This technique is indicated for more extensive reconstructions. The block-shaped tooth graft can be taken from another part of the patient’s body. When only one block is needed, it can be taken from the mandible.

When more blocks are needed, they can be taken from the pelvis or skullcap. None of the donor sites suffer from bone loss. The blocks are fixed in the jawbone with titanium screws and will thus allow more dental implants to be placed.

The possibility of using a prosthesis in this type of graft is therefore assessed on a case-by-case basis. The ImplArtDental Clinic has extensive experience in dental bone grafting techniques.

Implanting several teeth at the same time

The loss of multiple teeth can certainly affect your ability to chew, as well as the beauty of your smile. The best option for replacing multiple teeth is certainly the placement of a multi-tooth implant, i.e. the placement of several implants and the attachment of a dental prosthesis. A multi-tooth implant can also be called a total implant or a protocol prosthesis.

How to do several implants at the same time.

Fixed prosthesis or implants with several teeth provide good chewing ability and aesthetics

It is certainly recommended that implant surgery be carried out as soon as possible after tooth loss. This prevents bone atrophy (progressive bone loss) from occurring. Implants for 3 teeth, 4 teeth or more have some advantages over other types of treatment.

Advantages of multi-tooth implant rehabilitation

Neighboring teeth remain intact
The prosthesis is attached to the implants, offering comfort and safety for the user to chew, smile and speak
Ease of treatment, as the prosthetic components are prefabricated (approximately six sessions)
Not affected by cavities and infiltrations
In specific cases, it is possible to place the provisional prosthesis immediately after implant placement (immediate loading)
The installation of the implant prevents or stops the bone atrophy that normally occurs after tooth loss.

Implants with 3 teeth, 4 teeth or more have some advantages over other types of treatment with removable prostheses. As an alternative to placing several implants, we only have techniques that use common removable prostheses, without the use of implants. However, the indication is made after evaluating each case.

Should I have several teeth implanted or wear dentures?

Multi-tooth dental implants are an alternative to conventional dentures for those who have lost many or all of their teeth. They consist of placing metal pins, usually titanium, in the jawbone or maxilla, which serve as a support for fixed dental prostheses. These prostheses can be made of materials such as porcelain or zirconia, which mimic the appearance of natural teeth.

Multi-tooth dental implants have many advantages over conventional dentures, which are supported by the gums and can come loose or cause wounds. That’s why we’ve listed some of these advantages below:

Aesthetics, comfort and safety: Dental implants are more natural, comfortable and safe than dentures, which can move or fall out. They allow the patient to smile, speak and chew with more confidence and without fear of losing the prosthesis.

Preservation of bone against resorption: Dental implants preserve the bone structure of the mouth, preventing the atrophy that occurs after tooth loss. Bone atrophy can cause problems such as gum resorption, changes to the shape of the face, difficulty adapting dentures and the loss of other teeth.

Improved chewing function: In addition, dental implants allow for better chewing, speech and taste perception. Conventional dentures can interfere with chewing, making digestion and nutrition difficult. They can also hinder speech, causing noises or difficulty in pronunciation. In addition, they can cover the palate, reducing taste sensitivity.

Durability and resistance: Dental implants are considered to be more durable and resistant to cavities and infiltrations than dentures. They are made of materials that do not wear out or deteriorate over time. They are also easier to clean, as they don’t need to be removed for cleaning.

Conclusions on getting several teeth implanted at ImplArt Dentistry Clinic

The loss of multiple teeth can affect chewing and the aesthetics of the smile. The ideal solution is to place dental implants to replace several teeth, allowing a fixed prosthesis to be attached.

Computer-guided implant surgery

Computer-guided implant surgery is certainly a technique that makes implant surgeries less invasive, precise and comfortable. Currently, the most modern materials are zirconia protocols and porcelain protocols on total implants.

Surgical guide for guided implant surgery

Full arch implant with zirconia and porcelain prosthesis

This technique eliminates the need to make large cuts and sutures in the gums, making the post-operative period easier and the recovery faster.

The surgical guide acts as a template with indications of where the incisions should be made to place the dental implants. The surgical guide is custom-made according to the patient’s CT scan images, using a 3D printing method.

CT makes it possible to analyze the bone volume of all regions of the maxilla and mandible in order to select the best distribution of implants. In this way, it is also possible to choose the most suitable implants, taking length and diameter into account.

Another advantage of computer-guided implant surgery is that it helps to avoid surgical accidents, such as hitting delicate structures like nerve pathways.

GUIA CIRÚRGICO — *Photo of a surgical guide for guided implant surgery*

The patient can leave the office with temporary teeth or with the mobile prosthesis they were already wearing over the implants until the definitive prosthesis is finished (in 3 to 6 months), or with an immediate load in up to 72 hours.

Immediate loading ranges from the guided implant surgery for placing the implants to the fixing of the fixed dental prosthesis, usually of the dental protocol type. The patient can quickly speak, smile and eat safely (the masticatory effort should progress little by little, according to the surgeon’s instructions).

Learn more about total implants

Indications for a computer-guided implant surgery:

Any completely edentulous patient, whether recent or having worndentures for years, who has good bone availability is likely to be a good candidate for this technique.
Diabetic and/or hypertensive patients who generally have no indication for surgery or when it should be performed with caution due to bleeding. Computer-guided total implant placement surgery is, in principle, an excellent option for this patient, as bleeding is less with this technique.

Contraindications to guided surgery:

– Very advanced bone atrophy makes it impossible, in principle, to place neodent dental implants. In some cases, this problem can be solved with another technique, bone grafting.

The entire procedure is carried out with great peace of mind and safety. Computer-guided implant surgery represents a major advance in dental surgery and our team at the ImplArt dental clinic, led by Dr. Roberto Markarian – a doctor in dental implants and a specialist in prosthetics – has full command of the techniques.

To find out if you could benefit from this technique, our team needs to carry out a thorough assessment of your case. Contact us and make an appointment at the ImplArt dental clinic to see other cases and photographs. We will be happy to try to solve your problem.

Immediate loading for a single dental implant

Single-tooth implants with immediate loading consist of placing one or a few dental implants and then attaching a fixed prosthesis. This technique is used to reduce the stages of the procedure and allow the smile to be restored more quickly with implants. The tooth is fixed directly to the implant during surgery or within a few days.

The single-tooth implant immediate loading technique makes your treatment faster

In a common procedure, a temporary acrylic tooth is placed in the correct position for a period of one to four months (healing period), depending on the type of implant chosen. Soon after this period, the implant and bone are closer together and the gums are more stable, making it possible to make the molds for the permanent porcelain tooth.

In the case of immediate loading for single implants, the technique is used to rehabilitate just one tooth. This type of intervention is used when the tooth is severely compromised by cavities, periodontal disease, fractures or simply the absence of a tooth (a tooth that hasn’tbeen born).

The extraction of a problem tooth is followed by the installation of the implant and the fixing of an immediate prosthesis by the implant dentist. Even with planning, in some cases there are uncertainties about the use of immediate loading. Some factors cannot be predicted, such as the stability of the implant (insertion torque) and the quality of the bone.

The technique is particularly suitable for the front teeth, especially the incisors, which require less chewing force. The bottom teeth are not suitable for immediate loading because chewing exerts too much force. Therefore, immediate loading in this area reduces the chances of successful treatment.

To carry out the single implant immediate loading procedure, the patient must be in good health with good oral conditions to facilitate the primary stability of the implant. In addition, favorable bone structure is essential for immediate loading.

Uncontrolled systemic diseases and smoking are factors that should be assessed by the dentist, as smoking reduces the chances of osseointegration.

At-home or in-office teeth whitening?

Content of this article

With the teeth whitening technique, you can achieve a more beautiful smile and get rid of discomfort. Teeth whitening is an ideal option for looking after your dental aesthetics and keeping your oral health up to date.

Many people are embarrassed to take photos, smile or even talk because of their teeth. Yellowing and stains on the teeth cause discomfort and discomfort.

Laser teeth whitening technique

Procedure improves smile presentation and self-esteem

Teeth whitening is a process that removes pigments and stains from tooth enamel and dentin using a special gel enhanced by laser light. Because the treatment is simple, most people can undergo it, and there are even techniques for children as young as 10.

laser whitening white teeth — Application of whitening gel

However, in order to better define how whitening will be carried out, the dentist needs to assess each patient individually, looking at details such as the cause of the darkening, age and the integrity and shade of the teeth. However, older age and grayer stains make the process more difficult.

In which cases can the laser teeth whitening technique be used?

Before starting laser whitening, the person needs to undergo a better assessment of the oral tissues, taking into account the teeth, gums, tongue and internal mucosa. As each case is different, there is no whitening standard. In principle, teeth that are yellowed, brown, evenly darkened or with black, brown and yellow stains (as a result of drinking tea, coffee, cigarettes and plaque build-up) are more easily removed.

On the other hand, in cases where teeth are blue in color, have streaks caused by antibiotics or irregular stains, the whitening process is likely to be more difficult. In short, the worst cases are teeth with old endodontic problems and very dark stains. Dentures and restorations are not whitened with this technique.

In addition to the laser whitening technique, home whitening is a better option for those who don’t want to go to the dentist for sessions. It can be done by the patient themselves using a special gel and trays. Learn more about the technique below.

Home teeth whitening technique

Home teeth whitening done by the patient themselves is gaining a lot of followers due to its convenience and practicality, since the person doesn’t need to go to the dentist’s office to have the procedure done. However, it’s worth noting that, even if it’s done at home, the teeth whitening technique can only be recommended by a dentist after an assessment of the patient in consultation.

The technique is indicated for people who want to take care of their dental aesthetics and have stained teeth, yellowish pigmentation or who suffer from old endodontic problems. However, before starting whitening, oral health is assessed, as it must be up to date, with no sores, bleeding, cavities or tartar.

home teeth whitening gel tray — Applying the gel to the tray

teeth whitening at home with gel — Applying the gel to the tray

To whiten teeth at home, the patient uses a carbamide peroxide gel with a carbopol concentration of 10%, 16% or 22%. Flexible trays are then used to deposit the gel, which are then fitted to the teeth to start the treatment.

Duration of Whitening Treatment

The home procedure takes between 1 and 3 weeks to complete. The gel can be used in one session lasting 3 to 4 hours. Another option is two short sessions of 30 minutes to 1 hour. Although this technique takes longer to show results than laser whitening, it is considered less aggressive to the patient, as faster treatments can cause temporary side effects.

In addition, the professional must monitor whether the technique is being carried out correctly and, finally, whether the steps are being followed. If you have any questions, please contact us through one of the channels below or book an appointment with us.

There is also teeth whitening that combines both techniques, laser whitening and home whitening.

The combined whitening technique works very well and is considered better than the two others individually. You’ll also like to know about it:

Cerec 3D – Emax Cad crowns

Emax Cad crowns are prostheses used in oral rehabilitation and dental restoration to cover, protect and strengthen teeth that have been extensively damaged by decay or root canal treatment.

Ceramic crowns in Emax Cad

Developed by the German company Ivoclar, the technical name of the Emax material is lithium disilicate and it has the ability to offer high aesthetics and high resistance.

Dissilicate porcelain is classified as a glass porcelain, or glass-ceramic, with diverse applications for dental prostheses on teeth and implants, contact lenses, porcelain blocks, individual crowns on structure. In other words, these are applications for single teeth or up to 3 teeth. For larger dental prostheses, we use other types of dental porcelain, such as translucent dental zirconia.

emax cerec implart crowns — *Digital emax crowns guarantee the best aesthetic results*

EMAX crown applications

Dental crowns can also be placed on dental implants to replace missing teeth. They can be made from different materials such as temporary resins, but the main one is Emax Cad ceramic. What are the main advantages of the Emax Cad crown?

High resistance and durability;
Very aesthetic look, similar to a natural tooth;
Range of blocks with different colors and types of resistance for different uses;
Minimally invasive restorations;
It can be made using the metal-free technique (no metal in the internal structure). This makes the crown look translucent and much more aesthetic in bright environments.

emax crowns — The digital emax crown is milled by robotic machines in the blue phase, when the material is still soft. The material is then crystallized at over 700 degrees to achieve the final color. On the right, it has received the final polish that guarantees the smoothness of the structure and final pigmentation (even in black light environments).

Emax porcelain crowns in digital dentistry – how are they made?

ImplArt Odontologia is equipped with the modern Cerec 3D system with CAD/CAM technology, which simulates and digitally plans the treatment right through to making the Emax Cad ceramic crowns. The system is complete and consists of three units:

1 – Intraoral scanner: high-precision color camera that makes digital molds of the patient’s teeth and sends them to the computer.
2 – Computer and software: receives the information captured by the intraoral scanner and carries out simulation and personalized treatment planning using 3D images.
3 – Machining bay: robots mill the Emax Cad ceramic block based on the computerized design until the shape of the crown is achieved. The result is a piece that is strictly compatible with the patient’s needs.

emax ceramic crowns 3d printer — *Complete oral rehabilitation of the lower arch using emax computerized porcelain*

When the milling is complete, the piece undergoes a sintering process at approximately 850°C and acquires high strength, shade and translucency. The CEREC 3D system certainly speeds up treatment, even allowing it to be carried out and finalized in Day Clinic planning.

With it, it is possible to make crowns and restorations that are very precise and customized to the needs of each case. Contact us and make an appointment to find out if your case could benefit from this technique.

We’ll be happy to solve your problem in our specialized clinic. We also offer translucent zirconia crowns, a new type of dental porcelain that is even more resistant than Emax.

Rapid immediate loading of dental implants

All about Immediate loading

Immediate loading of dental implants

Rapid (immediate) loading is possible thanks to scientific advances. Today it is possible, in selected cases, to enter the office without teeth and leave at the end of the day with all the teeth fixed on dental implants with immediate loading. This technology gives patients great satisfaction due to the rapid results.

Immediate rapid loading can be planned for individual dental implants, or even total dental implants, the so-called protocol prosthesis. Its feasibility should be assessed in consultation with the implant dentist.

When to load implants quickly:

Implants with this rapid loading technique can be used in the following cases:

For total implants (replacement of dentures with all teeth fixed)
Several teeth (usually teeth or tooth roots with periodontal disease, badly decayed teeth as well as old dentures)
For a single tooth (mainly in the anterior region)
Fixed prosthesis of some teeth (in selected cases)

The rapid loading technique can be indicated for a single tooth or for all teeth.

Indications for immediate rapid loading dental implants

The dental implant technique with immediate loading can be carried out when bone quantity and quality are normal and also when occlusal habits are favorable for the procedure to be carried out so as not to overload the site with chewing.

Therefore, the immediate loading technique depends on certain conditions of the patient’s dental arch and general oral health. The conditions, planning requirements and feasibility of the implant with immediate loading are assessed individually in consultation. Not all cases can be immediately loaded.

Therefore, the dental implant technique with immediate loading can be indicated for the following cases: people with a completely toothless lower arch, a full arch with a few teeth, single or individual teeth in the anterior region of the mouth, and in some cases fixed prostheses on a few teeth, depending on the region. In all cases and situations, the main course of action is to consult your dentist and carry out a full assessment to determine what and how will be done.

Only this assessment can determine whether an immediately loaded dental implant is indicated or whether another rehabilitation procedure would provide a better result. The technique is not always used in all cases, as it depends on the patient having some specific and favorable conditions that are assessed in consultation.

We must therefore plan your case carefully in order to achieve the expected success. The procedure aims to install a temporary prosthesis immediately after the implants have been placed. The time it takes to make the final prosthesis will be discussed with the dentist and varies from case to case.

Types of dental implants

If your concern is to complete your dental implant treatment as soon as possible, you can use fast-healing implants. The Swiss company Straumann is responsible for producing the most modern dental implants that allow rapid healing. Under ideal conditions, without bone grafting and good locking, these implants normally heal in between 1 and 2 months. So if your concern is time, opt for Straumann implants. These implants can be used for single implants or total implants.

In addition to titanium implants, there are also ceramic implants, an option for those who want a metal-free implant treatment.

Types of dentures

The type of dental crown or type of prosthesis to be used in your treatment should certainly also be evaluated, in order to shorten its execution time. If possible, opt for computerized crowns or prostheses. These modern prosthesis models use 3D tools that speed up the execution time and offer greater quality and naturalness. This includes the Translucent Zirconia Prosthesis, the single zirconia crown or the fixed zirconia prosthesis. As well as the Cerec porcelain crown.

At the ImplArt dental clinic, we have all the structure to carry out your procedure with peace of mind, so come in for an assessment and we’ll analyze whether your case can be solved with this technique. Contact us by WhatsApp (11) 3262-4750, we’ll be happy to talk to you and answer any questions you may have.

Porcelain crown for implants – Day Clinic

What is a porcelain crown on a dental implant?

The placement of a porcelain implant crown is one of the procedures that ImplArt Odontologia can carry out with the convenience and agility of Day Clinic Dentistry in São Paulo.

A porcelain crown is a type of fixed prosthesis with a shape, color and functionality very close to that of a natural tooth, to be fitted over a dental implant. The dental implant is a titanium pin that replaces the root of a lost tooth and supports the prosthesis.

The porcelain crown on dental implant is certainly capable of restoring a beautiful smile and chewing safety for people who have lost one or more teeth, including the root, for some reason. Because it is made from state-of-the-art materials, the porcelain dental implant crown is highly aesthetic, resistant and durable.

ImplArt Odontologia uses the metal-free technique to make porcelain crowns. The advantage of this technique is that the internal structure of the crown is reinforced with zirconia. It is a white material, therefore free of metals and invisible inside the prosthesis, which gives the prosthesis a much more aesthetic result and no dark spots. These materials are also very resistant.

How is the porcelain implant crown made in the Day Clinic?

At ImplArt, the design of the porcelain implant crown is computerized and executed on 3D printers. The design of crowns is completely personalized for each person, quickly and conveniently. This is thanks to our complete structure, which includes a multi-specialized team and our own digital prosthetics laboratory equipped with computerized systems such as Cerec Sirona and 3Shape.

Dental contact lenses – Day Clinic

The application of dental contact lenses is a modern technique that primarily serves to correct aesthetic problems in the teeth, making them more beautiful and uniform. This is one of the dental aesthetic procedures that the ImplArt dental clinic can carry out with more agility in Day Clinic service for patients who come from other states or even abroad.

What are dental contact lenses?

Dental contact lenses are very thin sheets of porcelain (only 0.2 mm thick) used to correct certain aesthetic problems with the teeth, such as stains, chips, exaggerated gaps between teeth (diastemas), very short teeth, asymmetrical teeth, among others.Dental contact lenses are therefore custom-designed on a computer and manufactured on 3D printers. They are made from computerized Emax porcelain, which is why they can be called Porcelain Lenses.

Porcelain is a biosecure material with visual characteristics very similar to natural teeth. Ultra-thin dental contact lenses are different from ordinary veneers, as they require less or no wear on the teeth to be applied. Other advantages of contact lenses at Day Clinic:

Completely painless procedure
Possibility of changing the shape, size and color of teeth
Preserves tooth structure
The lenses do not cause any discomfort to the chewing function
Long durability
There is no color change in porcelain over the years
Incredibly natural and harmonious result
Computerized planning allows for more precise, personalized and faster treatment.

How are dental contact lenses applied at the Day Clinic?

1 – ImplArt’s specialized professional takes a digital mold of the teeth using intraoral scanners.
2 – The result is then digitally simulated using software so that it can be presented to and approved by the patient;
3 – The approved model is then sent to the laboratory to have the ultra-thin, highly durable porcelain dental contact lens made. The lens is made using 3D printers, which guarantee the quality of the work;
4 – The dentist glues the dental contact lens with specific adhesive material to the front of the previously prepared tooth.

The Day Clinic service is a great option for people who want or need to solve aesthetic problems with their teeth in just a few days, such as during a quick trip to São Paulo or due to the proximity of an important event.

In less complex cases, the ImplArt dental clinic applies dental contact lenses with all the convenience of Day Clinic planning. Normally, this whole process takes between 7 and 30 days, but with ImplArt’s Day Clinic planning, this time can be reduced. The application of this technique, as well as the shortened time frame, depends on a clinical analysis to verify feasibility and ensure a good indication.
