  1. Veneers vs Crowns_Choosing the Best Option for Your Smile When it comes to cosmetic and restorative dentistry, few treatments are more popularly sought than veneers and crowns. Both options can dramatically enhance the function and appearance of teeth, though they are designed to address different issues and have distinct applications. At Maltepe Dental Clinic, a provider of dental treatments Turkey, the professional team can help patients determine whether the procedure they wish to have done is best performed with dental veneers. Dental Veneers in Istanbul Dental veneers are thin shells custom-made to fit over the front surface of teeth. Typically, they are created from porcelain or a durable composite resin. Veneers can correct a wide range of aesthetic irregularities, from discoloration and minor misalignment to chips and gaps between teeth. Straightforward and minimally invasive, getting dental veneers typically takes two or three visits. During the initial visit, a dentist will help the patient plan his or her treatment. The second appointment is dedicated to preparing the teeth and sending impressions to the dental laboratory. The third visit typically is the “fitting” when the permanent veneers are tried on the patient before the final step and the bonding process. The process generally requires the removal of a small amount of enamel from the teeth’s front surface so that the veneers can fit. Dental crowns, on the other hand, are designed to cover the entire tooth; when a tooth is significantly damaged or weakened, even from the inside out, a crown will not only provide an aesthetic enhancement through the use of porcelain but also structural support and protection. Crowns can be made from porcelain, porcelain fused to metal, or full gold, depending on the tooth's location and the patient's particular needs. On the first visit, the tooth is prepared. After any decay is removed, much of the remaining structure is shaped to provide room for the crown. Impressions of the tooth are then taken to create a custom-fit crown. On the next visit, the crown is permanently bonded to the tooth. Veneers vs. Crowns: Making The Choice The decision as to whether veneers or crowns would be most suitable for your dental condition depends on the patient’s needs and expected outcome. Veneers are most ideal for patients looking to improve the aesthetic appearance of their teeth without having to alter the tooth’s structure very much. At the same time, crowns are best suited for teeth that require more comprehensive restoration, let’s say due to decay, fracture, or excessive wear. Depending on a patient’s needs, the dental professionals at Maltepe Dental Clinic can help them make an informed decision. They will consider several factors, including the extent of the damage to the tooth, its position in the mouth, and the patient’s general dental health. In

  2. some cases, they may opt to undertake a combination of both treatments to achieve the best possible results.
