Lab made Porcelain veneers Vs. Machine made Porcelain veneers

Cosmetic dentistry is a field of dentistry that has been viewed by many patients as no different from general dentistry over the years. The truth is that like every other profession even cosmetic dentistry is a separate entity of the field of dentistry. It’s for this reason that when patients who opt for general dentists for getting a cosmetic makeover especially with the use of veneers encounter the issue of dissatisfaction clouds the outcome. Nevertheless, the skill of a cosmetic dentist is yet another factor that might determine the appeal of the aesthetic treatments. Needless to say, that the ceramist plays an essential role too in this regard. Some cosmetic dentists opt for machine made porcelain veneers that cost cheaper then the intricately designed porcelain veneers prepared by a professional ceramist. High end porcelain veneer fabrication owns the benefit of precision and therefore assures the patients of owning a flawless smile. The preciseness of porcelain veneers can be especially crucial for the patients who are opting for full mouth treatment. The commonest problem that the patients who receive machine made porcelain veneers is the unsightly appearance of uneven gum-line. This unevenness in the gum line can be owed to the ill-fitting error of the porcelain veneer. Cosmetic dentist can rectify this issue by replacing the ill-fitting porcelain veneers with feldspathic porcelain veneers that have been prepared by professional ceramists. Appropriately fitting porcelain can make a big difference to the facial appearance of the patients and in some cases, patients can actually appreciate their rectified smile more than the original smile and feel the zing of self-confidence while smiling in social gatherings. Porcelain veneers prepared by reputed labs stand a chance of correction if the patient is not satisfied with the final look of the veneers. The cosmetic dentist would require you to attend a trial session for the veneers so that if there is something displeasing about them, you can mention it in that session and the same would be rectified in the following session before the permanent or final placement of veneer. Machine made porcelain veneer might be made available to the patients within a shorter span of time but if there are some corrections required in them, there are fewer chances of getting them done. At times, the discomfort caused by ill-fitting veneers might not be felt by the patient during the trial session but then they do come up with the issues and queries later on. The use of machine made porcelain veneers can be mostly seen in clinics that are operated by general dentists and not cosmetic dentists. It usually takes 2 weeks for a patient to get used to porcelain veneers. Nonetheless, lab made porcelain veneers take lesser time to gel in appearance with the other natural teeth. To conclude, machine made porcelain veneers might seem like a cheaper option to go for but they may be not always be the best option to go for.
