Porcelain dental crowns

Having bright, even, and beautiful teeth not only boosts confidence in communication but is also key to many career and life opportunities. Understanding this, Viet Bi introduces its cosmetic dental service: porcelain veneers – a modern solution to comprehensively improve the shape, color, and function of teeth. With a team of highly skilled doctors, advanced technology, and high-quality porcelain materials, Viet Bi is committed to providing customers with a radiant, safe, and long-lasting smile.

What is cosmetic dental crowning?

Cosmetic dental crowns (or porcelain veneers) are a dental solution aimed at improving the aesthetics of teeth. Some dental imperfections, such as broken, chipped, or severely discolored teeth, can be addressed with porcelain crowns without the need for further medical treatment.

Porcelain crowns use custom-shaped porcelain crowns to cover the teeth that need treatment (teeth with damage or aesthetic defects).

Depending on the condition of the teeth and the patient’s needs, the dentist may prescribe more or less grinding of the patient’s natural teeth, or even use porcelain crowns that require minimal grinding for aesthetic purposes.

How does cosmetic dental crown placement differ from regular dental treatment?

Many customers who come to Viet Bi Dental Clinic wonder: How does cosmetic dental crowning differ from conventional treatments? There are differences; the treatment goals and the initial requirements for both solutions are clearly different, specifically:

Porcelain veneers are becoming increasingly popular

Besides providing customers with perfect aesthetic results, porcelain veneers also offer many functional benefits and effectively protect natural teeth

Aesthetic benefits

One of the reasons porcelain veneers have become so popular is their ability to significantly improve appearance. Porcelain veneers have a bright white color, natural translucency, and light-reflecting properties similar to natural teeth, giving patients a radiant and more confident smile. Furthermore, Viet Bi offers custom porcelain veneer design to suit all aesthetic needs and goals, addressing issues such as gaps between teeth, mild overbite, chipped teeth, or uneven color. Importantly, improved dental aesthetics also positively impacts overall facial appearance.

Functional benefits

Beyond its aesthetic value, porcelain veneers also improve chewing function. These veneers are crafted from high-quality, durable materials with high strength, restoring chewing ability to its original state.

Furthermore, porcelain veneers act as a protective “armor,” shielding the natural tooth tissue from harmful agents such as bacteria, food acids, and high temperatures. This helps maintain the underlying natural tooth and reduces damage over time. With proper technique and care, porcelain veneers can last 15-20 years, or even longer if the patient chooses high-quality veneers and takes meticulous care.

Does getting dental crowns harm your natural teeth?

A common question from patients when consulting about porcelain veneers at Viet Bi Dental Clinic is whether this method negatively affects their natural teeth. In reality, to perform porcelain veneer placement, the dentist will need to grind down a portion of the enamel to create space for the crown. However, the amount of grinding is minimal, almost negligible, affecting the natural tooth.

At Viet Bi Dental Clinic, the porcelain veneer procedure is performed according to strict standards, using modern technology and high-quality porcelain materials, maximizing the preservation of natural tooth tissue and minimizing invasiveness.

In short, if done correctly and with proper care, porcelain veneers not only do not harm natural teeth but also contribute to protecting and extending the lifespan of your natural teeth.

Types of dental crowns at Viet Bi Dental Clinic

Porcelain crowns at Viet Bi Dental Clinic are currently classified based on their structure and materials. Depending on their needs and condition, customers can choose the appropriate type of porcelain crown. Below are 3 types of porcelain crowns that Viet Bi Dental Clinic is currently offering to customers:

Metal porcelain teeth

• Titanium Porcelain Crowns: Porcelain crowns with a titanium metal core (4-8% titanium content) provide durability, and the high-quality porcelain outer layer significantly enhances aesthetics.

• Chromium-Cobalt Porcelain Crowns: Upgraded with a chromium and cobalt alloy core for extremely high durability, and a porcelain outer layer crafted to match natural tooth color for a natural look.

All-ceramic porcelain teeth

As the name suggests, all-ceramic crowns are made from a single block of homogeneous material (high-grade ceramic), ensuring good bone compatibility and eliminating the risk of oxidation associated with metal cores.

Dental porcelain veneers

Modern dental procedures are convenient and quick, requiring only a thin layer of porcelain to be bonded to the tooth surface. This is ideal for clients who prioritize aesthetics and convenience.

• Emax Press German Veneers: Lithium Disilicate porcelain enhances the durability, aesthetics, and translucency of Emax veneers.
• Lisi Press Ultra Thin: This ultra-thin technology makes it virtually undetectable that veneers have been applied. Furthermore, the durability is unquestionable, thanks to this Japanese brand.
