New advancements and developments in technology help give
comfort and relief to patients in need of dental work. With the help of
cosmetic dentistry, a patient can achieve an amazing smile with very little
work done. For discolored, crooked, chipped, or non-proportional teeth, porcelain veneers are a great
way to repair them. Dr. Arthur A. Kezian has been in the dental field for over
thirty five years and has completed many successful veneer cases. If you’re
trying to find a dentist who can give you a beautiful, natural looking smile
with veneers, then Dr. Kezian is who you should consult with.
If your case needs more work, porcelain crowns could
be the right procedure for you. If you have had a root canal, or are going to
have one done, a crown is always recommended to be placed over the tooth. If
this is your case, Dr. Kezian can provide you with a beautiful looking crown
that will match the adjacent teeth in structure and color.
Porcelain Veneers:
Dental veneers are very thin, custom made shells of teeth
that are placed on top of your existing teeth to cover any problems you may
have with them. Dental veneers can be made of a few different materials, but
the most popular is porcelain. Porcelain veneers look more appealing and
resisting staining. These veneers can fix problems like discoloration, wearing
down of the teeth, chips, misaligned teeth, and even teeth with gaps between
them.
Getting veneers done usually takes about three
appointments, the first being the consultation with the doctor and the next two
being the prepping of the teeth and the placement of the veneers. Because the
procedure itself only requires two appointments, porcelain
veneers are a great and easy
way to enhance your smile.
Porcelain Crowns:
Dental crowns are tooth-shaped caps that cover your
teeth. This is the main difference between a crown and a veneer – a veneer only
covers surfaces areas whereas a crown covers your entire tooth. Just like
veneers, crowns can be made of different materials, porcelain crowns being the most popular.
Dental crowns are used more for protective reasons rather than esthetic. Crowns
could be placed to protect a weak tooth from breaking. A tooth could become
weak and fragile due to the amount of decay. Crowns could also restore an
already broken tooth by giving it good structural support. Another reason a
crown could be used is to cover a tooth that has a very large filling which
can’t be filled again due to lack of tooth structure. Crowns are also used for
bridges and to cover implants. Just like veneers, crowns require more than one
visit with the dentist. The first visit will include the prepping of the tooth,
as it requires more drilling than a veneer, and the second appointment will be
the cementation of the crown.
Dr. Arthur A. Kezian has been making crowns and
veneers for many years and has the latest technology at his office to help make
the procedures painless and keep his patients satisfied. Each crown or veneer
case is carefully planned out and high-tech equipments are used to make sure
the crown or veneer matches the teeth they will be placed next to. Each case is
different from another and therefore requires a consultation visit. If you have
any questions regarding crowns or veneers, feel free to call Dr. Kezian’s
office to schedule a consultation.
