Ms. Wang, now 28 years old, was once troubled by the problem of “tooth calcification.” Her previous attending physician recommended dental fillings to improve the problem. Unexpectedly, although the calcification spots on the teeth improved over time, the resin material used in the fillings began to deteriorate over time. Huang, this made Ms. Wang determined to go to Kaohsiung Chengxin Dental Clinic to receive whitening patch treatment and regain her confident smile.
Dr. Deng Haoxiang, the director of Chengxin Dental Clinic, said that whitening patches are also called porcelain dental patches and ceramic veneers. If the teeth are discolored, chipped or partially damaged, the teeth are asymmetrical or the gaps between the teeth are too large, etc., they are all whitening patches.

What is the difference between porcelain dental veneers and all-ceramic crowns? Is the treatment course suitable for each tooth different?
Both porcelain dental veneers and all-ceramic crown treatments can help whiten teeth. How to choose between the two? Dr. Deng Haoxiang pointed out that the production process of porcelain dental veneers is to polish the teeth about 0.5-1mm in advance, and then make corresponding veneers to cover the surface of the teeth, which is suitable for partially damaged teeth. Grinding measures can avoid complications such as tooth decay, tooth decay, gum recession or inflammation caused by loose contact between the teeth and the veneer.
As for the all-ceramic crown, the original tooth is ground into an elongated shape, and then a proprietary ceramic structure is made to completely cover the tooth. It is suitable for repairing severely damaged teeth. Dr. Deng Haoxiang emphasized that the condition of each tooth is different. If there is slight tooth decay, chipping, grinding, discoloration, etc., minimally invasive porcelain dental veneer treatment can be considered for repair; and the tooth has previously received root canal treatment. Or if the tooth decay has reached the nerve, or even the tooth is severely broken, it is better to use an “all-ceramic crown” to completely cover the tooth.

Ms. Wang, who is treating sincerely, also expressed this: “In the past, even if anesthesia was used during dental visits, the pain during the treatment was still very severe, but the Hypnotherapy treatment has made the treatment very “feelless”, and the teeth really don’t hurt! "

Before surgery, you can ask about the materials used and the treatment process of the hospital, and choose a dental hospital that has strict quality control from consultation and explanation, health education and maintenance, to patch production. In addition to ensuring the quality of the patches, subsequent maintenance is also more secure.
