A beautiful smile is the dream of many. Crooked, broken, pigmented teeth do not add attractiveness, have a negative psychological impact and lower self-esteem. Dentists offer a way that helps to smile widely, feel attractive and confident. These are special overlays – veneers. Plates made of modern materials are very thin (0.3 mm) and fully imitate tooth enamel. But they have 2 disadvantages: high cost and the need to prepare teeth.

Recently, so-called removable veneers have appeared on the market. The price and ease of installation attract a lot of customers. What are removable veneers and do they solve dental problems?

How removable veneers differ from ceramic veneers

Any onlays on the teeth: veneers, lumineers, removable veneers, are designed to solve aesthetic problems. No type of onlay eliminates the problem of chipping, discoloration, or gaps between teeth. All of them only mask imperfections. Perhaps this is the only similarity between ceramic veneers and removable, and therefore plastic veneers.

Preparation

In dentistry, veneers are installed only after preliminary preparation. This consists of examining the teeth and, if necessary, treating them. Plaque and calculus are removed. This reduces the risk of infection and ensures a tighter fit. Bacteria can penetrate gaps as wide as 50 microns, so a tight fit is more important than ever.

Prefabricated veneers are applied without preparation, except that it is recommended to brush the teeth. Bacteria still breed in plaque. A dark, moist space with food residue trapped under the edge creates ideal conditions for tooth decay.

Placement methods

Ceramic onlays are installed on the basis of a 3D model, which repeats not only the anatomical features of the tooth, but also its relief. Due to the shaping of the teeth, the inlay does not protrude, the thickness of the tooth remains the same. During preparation, they create a protrusion at the gum, so the setting fits tightly, without gaps.

Removable models differ in the method of installation. It can be, the so-called “home veneers”, which everyone installs himself, having previously soaked them in hot water. It is not necessary to talk about the quality of such overlays. You can not put a plastic plate on the tooth and say that it is not felt in the mouth, does not affect diction or eating. Perfect Smile and other “veneers” from Aliexpress create a feeling of a foreign body and cause problems with chewing and diction.

Ruveneers are made according to individual scans. Here we can talk about a personalized approach. They provide a tighter fit, but the thickness of the plastic (0.5 mm) still increases the thickness of the teeth. Such plates are good to occasionally hold a photo shoot or wait until ceramic veneers are made.

Method of installation

Unlike ceramic veneers, removable onlays are not placed on each tooth separately, but on the entire jaw at once. If a piece of a ceramic veneer breaks off as a result of an injury, accident, or for any other reason, it will simply be replaced with a new one. When 1 unit of the removable set is affected – it will have to be replaced completely. Overlays from Aliexpress cost pennies, and higher quality products, TruSmile, Ruveneers – are not cheap.

In addition, in Moscow there are clinics that “install” veneers Smile, Ruveneers, forgetting to tell patients that you can buy these products directly on the website, without visiting a doctor.

Lifespan

Putting veneers at home, you can not count on a long service life. The material for their manufacture is plastic. It is subject to cracks, shrinkage. On the Ruveneers website, the shelf life is indicated as a year and a half. Provided that the onlays will be treated with care: remove them before each meal, regularly clean them with special means and comply with storage conditions. For 20 years, overlay veneers will have to be changed 15-20 times. At an average price of 12,000 rubles for 2 jaws, the final result will be impressive. And ceramic veneers all 20 years will not have to be changed. Saving today can lead to large expenses in the distant future.

Appearance

Advertising brochures promise a “Hollywood smile.” Yes, customized removable veneers look good in photos and from afar. But up close, polypropylene looks like overly bright plastic, not like natural teeth. Ceramic materials such as E-max, Empress, Ceramage have all the qualities of natural enamel. In addition, the color can be chosen as desired, rather than dazzle others with the brightness of your smile. Ceramage is very strong, stronger than enamel. Therefore, it really provides protection for the teeth. Plastic, on the other hand, can cause allergic reactions.
