Composite laminate

Features and benefits: ✅ Lower cost: It is cheaper than ceramic laminate. ✅ No need for a lot of sharpening: Usually, the teeth are sharpened less or may even be without sharpening. Repairability: in case of fullness or color change, it can be repaired and corrected. ✅ Shorter time: it can be done in one or two sessions. Disadvantages: ❌ Less durability: it usually lasts between 5 and 7 years. ❌ More color tolerance: Over time, it may change color with coffee, tea, cigarettes, and food. ❌ Less impact resistance: It is more fragile than ceramic laminate. Based on the construction method, they are divided into three general categories; A: direct composite veneers In this type, cosmetic composites are formed directly on the tooth and do not require a laboratory. It is suitable for young patients or those who want minor changes in their smile. B: Indirect Composite Veneers Composite indirect veneers is a new technology in digital dentistry that allows the design and manufacture of composite veneers with high precision and speed. In this method, instead of manually layering the composite, the veneers are made using a 3D resin printer (DLP or SLA) and then bonded to the teeth. Composite printable veneers can revolutionize the future of cosmetic dental treatments. It is predicted that printable composites will replace manual methods in the future. The stages of making composite printable veneers Intraoral scanning with a 3D scanner. Face scanning with the help of a face scanner. ✅ Digital design with Exocad or 3Shape software Checking the coordination of veneers with the face and determining the pink and golden ratio and measuring the buccal corridors. ✅ Composite is made in the laboratory or in the office by a 3D printer. After printing, the veneers are placed in the Post-Curing machine (UV or thermal). The final polishing is done to create a transparent and shiny surface. ✅ Tooth surface preparation (etching and bonding) and bonding to teeth (Bonding to Teeth) by resin cement. Advantage: ✅ High speed, micron accuracy, predicting the result before execution. ✅ Better resistance to color change Smoother surface and closer to ceramic More accuracy and control in shape, color and contour ✅ Higher strength than direct veneers due to higher density and manufacturing technology. Disadvantages: Need two treatment sessions Use of advanced equipment. Suitable for: 🔹 Patients who need more accurate and resistant results. In our collection, you can benefit from the advanced and unique composite method of printable veneers. Using the world's latest technology, this method allows precise design and making veneers with a perfect fit by predicting the result before implementation and provides a personalized smile in the shortest possible time. C: composite injection molding technique (Injection Molding Technique) Composite materials that are specifically designed for injection are injected into the dental mold space. After injection, the composite is exposed to special light (usually UV or LED light). This light causes the composite to harden and become solid and resistant. After it hardens, it is usually necessary to polish and smooth the surface of the composite to achieve a smooth, shiny and natural tooth-like result. Advantage: ✅ New and more accurate technique: you can make the template with a digital smile design. Use of silicone molds and injection composites More control over the thickness and shape of the teeth ✅ High polishability Suitable for: 🔹 Digital smile design and things that require high precision.
