The very first portraits with “Hollywood smiles” were recorded during the reign of Alexander I. Gradually, with the passage of time and the development of medical dentistry, the fashion for portraits where there is a “smile with teeth” began to spread very strongly, but only to the female gender. The works of E.-L. are considered a real breakthrough in this form of art. Vigée-Libreun. This French artist skillfully “inserted” the radiant smiles of common people into people of the first magnitude. It is this method of giving a magnificent appearance with a smile that has been used in the world for a very long time. Today, when the dental industry is constantly developing, there is no need to “tamper” part of the face. To create a “Hollywood” smile, a portrait artist is no longer required; this place is rightfully and by vocation occupied by aesthetic dentistry with artistic restoration of teeth with veneers.
Historical reference
Transparent ceramics were first used for dental purposes back in 1862. And the very first attempts to change the color and shape of teeth were intended for cinematography. After all, a smile with perfectly straight and white teeth is very important on the screen.
The reluctance of actors to prosthetize their teeth with “ideal” crowns prompted the doctor of the California dental clinic Charles Pincus (Charles Pincus) to invent facets (plastic overlays) in the 30s of the 20th century (1928).
The facets were “put on” on the teeth exclusively for the period of filming, and then removed. With the passage of time and the development of dentistry, dental facets began to be made from porcelain and ceramics by firing in the open air. The strength of the plates was extremely low and therefore their function was exclusively aesthetic. In addition, at that time there were no long-term fixation technologies; they were glued using adhesive powder. These facets became the prototypes of today's veneers, and they can rightfully be called first-generation veneers. The further development of aesthetic dentistry and veneers itself was quite active. Thus, in 1949, the American company KULZER (USA)1 invented self-hardening plastic - a filling material made on the basis of polymethyl methacrylates.
In 1958, the first significant improvement in the transparency of ceramic crowns was achieved, which is an improvement in esthetic parameters. Dr. Vines proposed a material - ceramic mass for firing under low pressure in a vacuum. Further, in 1962, thanks to the discovery of Dr. RL Bowen (Raphael Bowen), composite materials appeared, which are still used today. The first composites were created on the basis of aromatic dimethacrylates with silanized inorganic fillers.
In 1968, Dr. McCulloch introduced a method for the dental market to produce esthetic glass-ceramic restorations that required direct cementation with pre-etched composite cement.
In 1975, Dr. Rochette made a breakthrough in the field of bonding restorative materials to teeth. Having restored a broken tooth (incisor) to a patient using an etched ceramic block, he introduced the idea of acid etching and the technique of ceramic restoration. Further, acid etching technology was developed by Michael Buonocore, which played a significant role in fixing the restorative material to the tooth tissue.
Since 1985, veneers have been successfully used by dentists around the world as a method of artistic aesthetic restoration of teeth.

Veneers: concept, types and methods of application
The development of the aesthetic dental industry originates in America and, as a result, the term “veneers” itself, so widely used today in Russian dentistry, should be considered from the original meaning of the word “veneer” - the outer layer, veneer or gloss.
Veneers are ceramic or composite plates designed to change the shape and color of a tooth, glued to the vestibular (labial, front) part of the tooth, performing phonetic, aesthetic, restorative, and masking functions. Vestibular dental plates, created from ceramic or polymer materials, restore the anatomically correct shape of the tooth, replacing its outer layer. In dentistry, veneers are usually distinguished according to several classifications; in this regard, several types of aesthetic restorations can be distinguished:
– according to the method of processing teeth prepared for restoration: without turning and with tooth preparation;
– by installation method: direct method, indirect and combined;
– by material: ceramic or composite. Three main types of material are used for veneers, and each group has its own internal division into so-called subtypes.
Ceramic veneers - since several ceramic materials are used for production, it is customary to distinguish between: cast glass ceramics; ceramics for hot pressing; ceramics for computer modeling and production of restorations from standard blanks; traditional ceramics for layer-by-layer application; feldspar-based ceramic mass for application to a refractory stamp or platinum foil cap2. Ceramic veneers are used not only to change the color of teeth, but also to correct occlusion and eliminate anomalies. Currently, the most popular are press ceramics (press ceramics) and feldspar-based ceramic mass for application to a refractory die or platinum foil cap. Ceramic veneers as a technique of aesthetic restorative dentistry, in essence, are the optimal solution to aesthetic and functional problems. This is due to the fact that they have natural fluorescence, translucency, conduct, absorb and reflect light almost like natural enamel.
In turn, composite veneers are also used to change the color and shape of teeth. Hybrid, microfilled and nanocomposites are the materials that have the best grindability, polishability and color stability. The aesthetic parameters of composite veneers directly depend on both the quality of the materials used and the qualifications and medical experience bordering on artistic creation. The main disadvantages of this type of veneers are the difficulty in recreating microrelief and symmetry, regular polishing, which, in turn, leads to abrasion. It is also important that composite restorations are more fragile compared to ceramic ones, and the long-term service prognosis is questionable. But, the cost of composite veneers, for example, with the direct method of application, is on average 2–4 times lower than their ceramic counterparts, and the possibility of dental rehabilitation in a time period is much faster. The obvious advantage of composite veneers is their thickness - 0.3 mm, which is inherent in lumineers, thanks to which the possibility of restoration with minimal grinding becomes a reality.
When choosing one or another type of veneers, it is necessary to take into account that some of them require preliminary preparation of the teeth. For example, when carrying out aesthetic restoration of anterior teeth with direct composite veneers, tooth preparation of 0.5 mm or more is provided. In turn, restorations with ceramic veneers require minimal preparation - up to 0.5 mm, which is a significant advantage over restorations with composite veneers. But in each clinical case, the dentist determines on a purely individual basis the possibility of carrying out restoration with veneers without preparation or with grinding of the teeth and what the depth of the preparation will be. After all, this is influenced by many factors - the morphological characteristics of the teeth, the severity of the color change, the final cosmetic result, etc. All these listed factors also determine the choice of installation method and application of aesthetic restoration, including the financial aspect - the patient’s capabilities.
The constant increase in the aesthetic demands of patients for a “Hollywood smile” encourages developers and manufacturers of dental materials to constantly be in the process of searching for new unique techniques, materials and their combinations to ensure high functional characteristics, such as strength, and optimal aesthetic characteristics - to achieve maximum imitation of natural teeth.
Your teeth are not perfect, but you still want to have a beautiful snow-white smile? Just 2 visits to the dentist - and the ideal is achieved. With the help of veneers.
Note: the famous Hollywood smile in most cases is the result of installing veneers.
When is it justified to install veneers on teeth?
Veneers hide imperfections in the appearance of a tooth. These may include chips, unbleachable darkening and stains, curvatures, loss of transparency, wide spaces between teeth, and the presence of multi-colored fillings.
Restoration with veneers allows you to quickly achieve aesthetic appeal in any of the listed cases. Veneers are used only if most of the tooth being restored is intact.
So what are veneers in Nicodent dentistry?
Externally, veneers look like thin but durable plates in the shape of a part of a tooth. Veneers are always made individually - according to the characteristics of a particular person’s tooth, with careful selection of the desired shade. Once installed, the veneer is difficult to distinguish from a real tooth. In this case, the veneer can mask only one or two sides of the tooth.
Most often, they order the installation of veneers on the front teeth - the price is reasonable compared to other types of correction, the aesthetic effect is excellent, and the time required is minimal. To reduce the time you wait for veneers to be installed, Nikodent has its own dental laboratory.
Why should you get veneers?
Just a couple of dentist manipulations - and a perfect smile will delight you for decades! The service life of veneers and the preservation of their shade allow this.
With minimal intervention, your own tooth practically does not suffer. Although the thinnest layer of enamel still has to be removed to securely fix the veneer on the surface of the tooth. Veneers additionally help prevent plaque buildup.
How to extend the life of veneers?
Veneers are cared for in the same way as regular teeth - everything is familiar here. But if you are accustomed to doing something that injures your teeth (for example, cracking nuts in the shell), then you should get rid of such a bad habit.
Hard foods that require careful chewing can also damage veneers. Therefore, it is usually excluded from the diet.
In order to promptly detect and eliminate deviations from the norm, it is recommended to visit the dentist at the same frequency as with regular teeth - 2 times a year for a preventive examination.
What material is the best for veneers?
Only a doctor will tell you what material is best to make veneers from specifically in your case.
Nowadays, in laboratories, veneers are made from composite, ceramic, and porcelain. On average, composite veneers last from 7 years, ceramic - from 10, porcelain - up to 20. Temperature changes are well tolerated by all 3 types of veneers.
The price for composite veneers is lower, since over time this material, under the influence of food, gradually changes shade and loses its impeccable smoothness. At the same time, composite veneers are installed in one go - that is, you come for an examination and leave on the same day with veneers already installed. You don't have to wait for them to be made in a laboratory. In order for composite veneers to last longer, remaining smooth and white, you can use the dental service of grinding veneers during professional examinations.
Ceramic veneers retain their original shade throughout their service life. When making such veneers using the injection molding method, stronger veneers are obtained than from non-pressed ceramics.
A type of ceramic veneers are porcelain lumineers with a longer service life, which are installed without grinding the enamel.
How much does it cost to get veneers?
It is difficult to answer this question without a preliminary examination - everyone has different dental problems and can be solved differently. To make an appointment or get advice about installing veneers, call us:
Veneers - quality criteria
Evolution in the development and improvement of techniques and materials allows dentists to create reliable and natural aesthetic restorations that provide a favorable long-term prognosis for use. But the quality of the dental rehabilitation performed depends not only on the characteristics of the materials. A direct connection is also established with the professional skills of the dentist. After all, the doctor must be fluent not only in the methods of installing veneers and preparing teeth for restoration, but also take into account many parameters - not only form and functionality, but also the patient’s image and lifestyle, his habits, and personal oral hygiene skills. A smile is a mirror of a person’s health, so the doctor must discuss and take into account all aspects of the patient’s treatment so that everyone involved in the process clearly understands the final result. The dental technician also plays an important role in this process – his skill in creating highly artistic restorations. That is why aesthetic dentistry today is considered a creative activity (specialty). Based on this, the main criteria for assessing the quality of veneers are:
I. Ethical parameters:
– naturalness and transparency of the restoration;
– the ratio of white and pink – teeth and gums;
II. Biological compatibility and physiology;
III. Durability and susceptibility to abrasion, reliable and long-term operation.
Sufficiently high aesthetic requirements for the results of dental treatment oblige all participants in the process to work coherently, professionally, strictly control and, of course, comply with all medical recommendations by the patient.
Indications for restoration with veneers
In various clinical situations, to eliminate minor defects (stains and darkening on the surface, cracks, chips, wedge-shaped defects) before correcting congenital anomalies of the dentition in general, dental restorations with veneers can be used and indicated. Veneers are also used in cases where it is necessary to correct the shape or position of teeth, eliminate diastemas (distance, gap between teeth) and with progressive tooth wear.
Along with this, one cannot ignore the patient’s usual desire - changing the existing color of the teeth to a lighter shade or improving the unsightly appearance of teeth, but absolutely healthy ones.
In difficult clinical situations, veneers are considered as an alternative, for example, in case of a tooth fracture or for restoring a pulpless tooth.
