Everything you want to know about porcelain veneers in Tirana :
Porcelain veneers, also known as laminate dental veneers, are thin layers of porcelain placed on the surface of your teeth, ranging from 0.3 to 1 mm in thickness. Their function is purely aesthetic, enhancing the color and shape of the teeth. For instance, if your natural teeth lack whiteness, porcelain veneers can achieve the desired color. If your teeth have lost their luster and are worn, veneers can remodel their shape to perfection.

Pros dhe Cons
- Not everyone is a candidate for porcelain veneers. This depends on the bite and the actual position of the teeth. Sometimes it is necessary to straighten the teeth with orthodontic appliances and wires before the dentist places the intervention for veneers.
- They are very delicate and you have to be careful not to eat hard things, some foods you have to cut with a knife. If the color of your teeth is very dark, it is difficult to forget the white color with facets.
- Unlike veneers, the amount of enamel removed during tooth preparation is very small and in some cases the enamel may not be prepared at all (non prep veneers).
- The process of their fabrication is more difficult than the cages, therefore the cost of emax veneers is higher.
Emax veneers CAD
What is Emax material? For all those who don’t know, Emax is the brand of the material, while the material itself is called lithium disilicate. Compania ivoclar is the manufacturer of the Emax brand and is one of the largest manufacturers of dental products in the world.
Emax cad is a block of lithium disilicate which is placed in a 3d machine and cut into the desired shape. This method has limits as it cannot create dental veneers thinner than 0.5 mm
Emax veneers PRESS
The second method for the production of porcelain veneers is Emax press. Another technique which is more advanced than the first technique. The only difference is that emax press can create very thin files up to 0.3 mm. It has a smaller margin of error than Emax Cad and is more preferred, especially in patients who do not need enamel removal.
Porcelain veneers vs Composite bonding
Composite veneers are more economical since the material and the time needed for the procedure are different. Most of the patients in our experience want to replace the composite veneers within 2 years of having them placed with porcelain veneers. Composite veneers cost 5 times less for one reason, they:
- They change color more often over time
- They break more easily than lithium disilicate, which bakes at temperatures of 800 degrees C
- The application of the composite requires a dry environment without saliva and this unfortunately cannot be achieved 100%, therefore, over time, signs of stains on the neck of the tooth are noticed.
