Image Photo Description
cosmetic dentistry with four upper front porcelain veneers and dental bonding on a lower right canin Porcelain veneers (laminates) on the four upper front teeth. The veneer on the lateral incisor tooth #7 was used to bring the tooth palatally (in from the lip). The lower canine (fang) #27 was bonded from the mesio-lingual to make it appear more square. The lower front teeth were also reshaped. This took two office visits.

It is very easy to confuse one with another and the porcelain veneer dental cement hardens in ten seconds!! How to pictures. Some people may refer to a veneer as a laminate. Lumineers are heavily advertised and many dentists offer them because they are easier and faster to perform. They are typically easier because the technique involves little or no tooth reduction - drilling - but the veneer adds thickness to the front of the tooth when it is placed. This can also require that the veneer be made thinner than a premium veneer so that it may not possess all the internal ceramic brilliance and beauty. This office will offer a Lumineer type of porcelain veneer in specific circumstances when the tooth/teeth to receive the veneer(s) need(s) to be brought out labially, towards the lip. This concept is not new nor unique to Lumineers.

 

 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.
