Today’s Cosmetics
Look and Feel Younger Next Year … or Next Month!
After many years of use and abuse, a worn smile might need an upgrade. Dental cosmetics have changed drastically over the last 20 years. Back in the 90’s veneers were the craze but they came with limited life spans. Today’s ceramics are stronger, longer lasting and more predictable than ever.
Today’s zirconia is revolutionizing cosmetic dentistry as no other material has in the past. It is the strongest material ever developed. It can be “Hollywood white” or natural in color. It can be delivered in as little as 2 weeks.
Today, zirconia is our “go to” material for smile makeovers. If your teeth are worn, your smile not as presentable as before, a great smile makeover can be a motivator to the start of the rest of your life!
How will I know that I’ll like my new smile makeover? ▼
Two things will eliminate surprises and disappointments!
Wax-ups: Impressions and models are used to recreate your new smile in wax. This wax-up is then used to create a mold or guide for the temporaries that you will wear and “test drive.”
The temporaries can be changed, making teeth longer, shorter, wide or slender, all while in your mouth, allowing you to see and wear the changes. Once you like the temporaries impressions are made of the changes and duplicated in Zirconia as the final product.
How long will my new smile makeover last? ▼
In terms of strength, Bruxir Zirconia is pretty indestructible, (click on the links below), you be the judge.
Other things that will affect longevity are daily home care (brushing/flossing), regular professional cleanings and the use of a night guard to guard against night grinding.
Will the color ever change? ▼
