Falling into the trap of fixed veneers and its disadvantages

Today we will answer the most frequently asked question: which one to choose:

fixed veneers or removable veneers?

Let’s talk first about the fixed veneers. The fixed veneers are a ceramic layer that is placed on the teeth. It has a certain thickness, and dentists have to provide enough thickness for veneers to not break, and veneers can’t be done without damage and modification to the teeth so as not to cause protrusion. We talk here about the reduction in natural teeth, which reaches from half to one millimeter.

Depending on the alignment of the teeth and whether there are crooked teeth or not, And the amount of reduction will be large if the teeth are crowded, where the dentist performs the reduction until it reaches dimensions similar to all teeth to make them all even, or he will have to make an endodontic treatment or reduce the tooth completely in order to reach all teeth of equal lengths.

This is despite the fact that veneers may look impressive for some things in the end, but they are completely destroying and irreversible, as healthy teeth are destroyed and there will be continuous permanent suffering from the deterioration of the prosthesis, gum inflammation, and toothache at the bottom of the prosthesis, which is permanent and fixed. These prosthesis may be removed because of the pain of pulpitis and the need for endodontic treatment.

Patient’s dissatisfaction with fixed veneers

This is only if we talk about one problem: the need for a tooth for a root canal filling; we have not yet talked about many problems, such as the final very bad shape and the patient’s dissatisfaction with it.

Fixed veneers require a lot of design and smile analysis to be suitable for the shape and dimensions of the face; they also need to be suitable for age and gender; and they also have to match the natural teeth that are in multiple shades to give a natural appearance and mimic normal teeth.

If you have dark-colored teeth, Your teeth may also need another type of thick and dark veneers to not be transparent and show defects in normal teeth, so dentists can’t make transparent veneers with less thickness.

Smile analysis before making fixed veneers

Before making fixed veneers, your dentist should consider multiple questions and answers to select the case and expect the result and the ideal treatment for the patient.

For example:

What type of prosthesis and what color can be achieved?

Is it possible to make Veneers, or is this impossible as a result of cracked teeth?  Or is it possible to make veneers in the absence of the most important part of the bonding process, which is enamel?

Is the patient old?

Does the patient not have enough enamel for veneers bonding?

Or does the patient have enamel erosion? Are you a bruxiser who can erode your tooth enamel over time?

Do you have a deep or abnormal bite requiring occlusion correction?

All these factors can result in the absence of enamel, so it is impossible to depend on enamel bonding and make only front tooth coverings, which are fixed veneers; it is necessary to make fixed crowns and cover all walls of the tooth.

The removable veneers we present here at Pioneers Veneers are completely different.

Why do you need to stay away from reducing your teeth?

 Natural teeth have the most important element, which is the nerve and blood supply. When this element is missing, it is difficult, for example, to keep blood flowing to your teeth, which can prevent your teeth from becoming brittle and weak. It also provides nourishment and moisturizing for your teeth.
