Porcelain dental contact porcelain lenses
Dental contact lenses are ultra-thin porcelain veneers (0.2 mm), used mainly to correct some aesthetic dental problems. They work similarly to “caps” that are bonded to one or more teeth to cover stains, small dental fractures and other defects, or to change the shape and size of teeth.
How to transform the aesthetics of your smile with dental contact lenses?
Dental contact lens treatment is certainly the smile of the famous.Dental contact lenses are completely computer-designed and made from dental porcelain by milling machines (3D printers).
Dental porcelain is a vitreous ceramic material (lithium disilicate) that is very resistant and, above all, imitates the texture and shade of natural teeth. It is also a safe material that is totally biocompatible with the human body.
The project is carried out according to images obtained by an intraoral scanner – a high-precision camera.
Immediately after milling, dental contact lenses have a shape, color and texture comparable to natural teeth, even imitating the characteristics of neighboring teeth. Because they are ultra-thin, installation requires little or no wear on the natural teeth. Indications for dental contact lenses:
