Image	Photo Description
	The "Bobbi" porcelain teeth veneers dental laminate technique involves the fabrication of the dental veneers on a master model BEFORE preparation of the actual teeth. This allows the teeth preparation and final porcelain veneers to be completed in a one-hour visit. 1) Pre-op photo shows traumatic fracture of a porcelain veneer on tooth #8. 2) The tooth veneer preparation is made on the master model. 3) The porcelain veneer is fabricated on this master model. 4) Tooth preparation. 5) Initial seating of the dental veneer. 6) Etch with 37% phosphoric acid. 7) Vaseline placed on labial surface during seating to prevent bonding material from adhering to the labial surface. 8) Final result. The main drawback to this technique is having confidence that your preparation on the tooth will closely match that performed on the master model. Otherwise, the dentist will be faced with double lab charges if the teeth veneers do not fit. Note this technique can be performed only for porcelain veneers where the expectation of marginal fit is not as high as for porcelain fused to metal dental crowns and this discrepancy is compensated for with the teeth bonding system used for adhesion.

Information about these dental photos In medicine and dentistry "left" and "right" are based upon the orientation of the patient's body and not how they appear in a photograph of a smile. For example, a reference to the upper left teeth will actually appear to be on the right side when viewing a picture of the face and similarly an upper right tooth will appear to be on the left side. Many words in dentistry like oral and mouth have a similar meaning and are frequently used together to help our readers find specific words they best understand. This is particularly important because a majority of our visitors are from countries where English is not their primary language. Maxilla or maxillary refer to the upper jaw. Mandible or mandibular refer to the lower jaw. There are many other similar word combinations used throughout this website because our pages are read by patients and dentists. A few of the most common are discussed here. Tooth decay, tooth cavity and dental caries all mean the same thing. Tooth, teeth and dental are also frequently interchanged as in teeth veneers or dental veneer laminate. Oral rehabilitation and dental reconstruction mean smile makeover. The word for x-ray may be used with or without a hyphen (this is true for other words too) and can also be called a radiograph.
