3D-Printed Dental Veneers
Custom smile improvements
At Dental Paradiso, we are dedicated to creating beautifully natural smiles that enhance your confidence. We are proud to introduce our state-of-the-art 3D-printed veneers, representing the future of smile makeovers.
Using the latest advancements in dental technology, our 3D-printed veneers provide a minimally invasive, quick and durable solution to achieve your ideal smile. These veneers are made from biocompatible hybrid resins, ensuring a natural appearance that perfectly blends with your existing teeth.
3D-printed dental veneers
3D-printed dental veneers are custom-made dental restoration which uses advanced intraoral scanning, 3D printing and digital design techniques. These veneers are permanently bonded to the front surface of teeth to cover cosmetic imperfections and improve their appearance.
Applications of 3D-printed dental veneers
3D-printed dental veneers can be used to address a wide range of cosmetic dental concerns, including:
- Chipped or broken teeth
- Stained or discolored teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Misaligned or misshapen teeth
- Worn-down teeth
- Uneven tooth size or length
Benefits of 3D-printed dental veneers
At Dental Paradiso, we believe in providing you with the best possible dental care, and that’s why we’re excited about the benefits 3D-printed dental veneers bring to your treatment experience:
Precision and customisation: Our advanced 3D printing techniques allow us to create dental veneers with exceptional precision, perfectly tailored to fit your teeth. Experience a comfortable and natural-looking smile that suits your unique dental needs.
Minimised tooth reduction: Unlike traditional veneers that often require the removal of significant tooth enamel, our conservative approach allows us to create accurately thin veneers. This means we can reduce the need for extensive tooth reduction, preserving more of your natural tooth structure.
Quick turnaround time: Our efficient 3D printing workflow streamlines the production process, resulting in quicker turnaround times for your dental veneers. Spend less time in the dental chair and enjoy faster results.
Minimised discomfort: With digital impressions captured using intraoral scanners, we eliminate the need for messy and uncomfortable traditional impression materials. This ensures accuracy and provides a more comfortable experience for you.
Improved aesthetics: Experience the beauty of veneers that closely replicate the appearance of your natural teeth. Our precise customisation and characterisation ensure a smile that looks and feels remarkably natural.
Patient involvement in design: With our digital workflow, you have more involvement in the design process of your dental veneers. Collaborate with us to customise the shape, colour and other aesthetic factors, ensuring your veneers achieve your desired look.
Bio-compatibility: The 3D printing materials we use for all our dental applications are biocompatible, meaning they are well-tolerated by your body. This contributes to your overall health and well-being.
Minimised chairside adjustments: With the accuracy of 3D printing, the need for chairside adjustments is minimised, optimising your time spent in our office and ensuring a more efficient visit.
3D-printed dental veneers workflow
1. Consultation and examination
The process begins with a comprehensive consultation. We’ll discuss your goals for your smile, examine your teeth thoroughly and assess if 3D-printed veneers are the right solution for you. X-rays or other diagnostic tools might be used to evaluate your teeth’s health and underlying bone structure.
2. Tooth preparation
Depending on the condition of your teeth and the desired outcome, minimal preparation might be required. In some cases, a small amount of enamel might be removed from the front surface of your teeth to create space for the veneer and ensure a natural look.
3. Intraoral scanning
We’ll use a handheld, high-definition scanner that glides comfortably over your teeth and gums, capturing a precise digital impression of your entire mouth. This scanner gives us a clear and accurate representation of your oral anatomy.
4. Digital design
We then upload the digital impression to our dental modelling software. Here, we meticulously design your veneers, customising their size, shape, colour and even translucency to perfectly match your surrounding teeth and achieve your desired smile.
5. 3D printing
Once the design is finalised, we send it to our 3D printer. Here, we utilise bio-safe hybrid resin, a cutting-edge material known for its durability and realistic appearance.
6. Cleaning and drying
After printing, your veneers are carefully removed from the printer. We clean and dry them to eliminate any traces of residual resin, ensuring they are pristine and ready for the next stage.
7. Polishing
Next, we remove any support structures from your veneers, ensuring a flawless finish. Once these structures are removed, we polish your veneers to a high shine, enhancing their aesthetics and creating a smooth, comfortable surface.
8. Glazing & characterisation
For an extra touch of natural beauty, we can add a glazing layer to your veneers. This creates a slightly glossy finish that mimics the natural light-reflecting properties of your teeth. Additionally, subtle characterisations like texture variations can be incorporated to achieve an even more natural look.
9. Partial curing
During glazing, the veneers undergo a partial curing process with low-intensity light. This process hardens the resin enough for handling but still permits some final adjustments if needed.
10. Glycerine bath
Your veneers are then dipped in a light coating of glycerine. This serves as a protective barrier during the final curing stage, ensuring the integrity of the veneers as they undergo the last phase of hardening.
11. Final curing
Finally, the veneers are exposed to a high-intensity light source, ensuring that your veneers are strong and durable.
12. Bonding and placement
Before placing your veneer, we clean your teeth and the veneer thoroughly to ensure a strong bond. Using dental adhesive, we carefully attach the veneer to your teeth. Once bonded, we double-check the fit and make necessary adjustments for comfort and aesthetics.
Our comprehensive 3D-printed dental veneer workflow combines advanced dental technology with our precise artistry. From your initial digital impressions to the final bonding, each step is guided to deliver aesthetically pleasing, customised veneers that perfectly blend with your natural smile. The result is a bespoke cosmetic dental solution that combines functionality and aesthetic enhancement, brought to you by Dental Paradiso
