Aesthetic Restorations
Tooth decay is one of the problems that severely affects dental health, and reduces facial features. When one or more teeth are lost, the remaining teeth tend to be deviated.
Loss of teeth is also a risk that affects the bite joint, making the remaining teeth more susceptible to tooth decay, tooth decay, and serious damage to the gum.
Cosmetic Dentistry is an optimum solution for missing teeth and is one of the recommended treatments for dentists.
Types of aesthetic restorations
Crown, bridge, denture
Dental crowns: Like a covered cap on a tooth, to protect the teeth, change the shape, color, size and aesthetics of the teeth.
Where to make a crown
Teeth worm, section
The teeth are chapped, broken or worn
Support for bridges
The teeth are severely discolored or the shape of the teeth is too bad
Implant crowns
Or want to change the teeth of aesthetics
Types of crowns
a. Metal crown
Crowns can be made of metal, there are many types of metal used, usually Ni-Cr alloy, Cr-Co, Titan, gold alloy (Au) ...
Includes a metal frame inside, covered with a layer of aesthetic on the outside.This type of crown is highly aesthetic because it has color, gloss is very similar to real teeth.
The metal ribs inside can be made of different types such as Cr-Co, Titanium, Gold alloy
Non-metal porcelain
Crap gold
c. Aesthetic porcelain crown
Although the porcelain crown has met the aesthetic requirements are quite high, but there are still some defects such as lithium is not quite like real teeth and must have a layer of porcelain to cover metal ribs inside (especially the metal There are more types of aesthetically pleasing porcelain (formerly called non-metallic porcelain but because of the recent appearance of Ziconium as a white metal). Highly durable and durable, so the word aesthetic will be more appropriate.)
There are various types of porcelain aesthetics, depending on the specific case of which use appropriate, - Ziconium ribbed porcelain made by CAD / CAM technique like CERCON porcelain
Crap gold
Advantages:
Dental crowns for gold crown cover simple and least complication; There are very few tissues that are removed due to grinding and the remaining healthy tissue is preserved. Unlike porcelain crown, gold crown does not cause the chewing surface of the teeth to the opposite. Yellow crowns are also more easily attached to the teeth. Gold is a substance that does not have any harmful effects on gum tissue.
+ Disadvantages: not aesthetically due to its golden color
Total porcelain crown
+ Advantages: porcelain crowns or reinforced plastic is considered to bring the highest aesthetic restoration and easy to place porcelain in the color of the surrounding teeth.
+ Disadvantages: porcelain thickness should be thick enough to be able to achieve aesthetic, this means to have to remove many tissues on the teeth need to cover the crown.
Ceramic-metal:
Advantages: can give natural color.
+ Disadvantages: Due to a layer of metal under the ribs, it should be covered by the opaque layer before the porcelain layer is applied. This makes porcelain hard to achieve penetration as natural teeth
Steps for performing dental crowns:
To make and complete the crown often need 2 appointments, the first dental consultation this time will combine the impression of teeth, the second appointment will attach teeth.
Prepare teeth and get seal:
First, the dentist will examine the teeth and may need an X-ray to check if the pulp is good or if the tooth is infected, it is necessary to remove the pulp before performing the crown. Prior to tooth whitening, some cases require anesthesia to reduce the sensitivity, and then the teeth will be whitened to the outside, lateral and lateral surfaces of the teeth. What kind of crown material did the patient choose? If the crowns need to be covered with a crown, the dentist will reconstruct the tooth with fillings, forming a crown before the outer crown. After the teeth are fully toothed, dentists will take the mark to the Lab to conduct the crown. During dentist crowns the dentist will attach a temporary crown to the patient to ensure the aesthetic.
2nd appointment: The dentist removes the temporary crown and the official crown, then checks to see if the crown fits and the color is right. Finally the dentist will use a special cement to fix the crown.
Bridge
Bridge is indicated in the case of missing teeth. A bridge is made up of two lateral teeth that form a bridge to support the denture. The dentures can be made of metal, porcelain crown, or gold, ... Bridges are supported by natural teeth or implant implants.
Advantages of bridges:
Restore your smile
Restore the ability to chew and talk
Reproduce the shape of the face
Rebalance the chewing force for all teeth
Prevent tooth movement.
False teeth
Dentures are used to replace many missing teeth and surrounding tissues. There are two types of dentures, full dentures and jaw implants. Full function jaw is used when all the teeth are lost, while the jawed denture is used when there are still some natural teeth.
Full function jaw:
Helps replace all missing teeth on the jaw and is snug fit, holding the gums and supporting bone below.
Full dentures are divided into two types:
• Hard plastic implant.
• Bisexual plastic denture function.
Implant with implant support
This is similar to the usual full denture function. Unlike conventional denture implant, it is mounted on implants, which makes dentures firmer, more stable during chewing.
Tetracyline infection
In severe tetra infections, there are two ways to change the color of your teeth
- Full porcelain veneer: Tooth little tooth, paste porcelain on the outside of the teeth. This type of restoration requires less chewing due to less force.
- Metal porcelain, porcelain or porcelain needles: this is the best solution

frequently asked Questions
Infection with Tetracyline?
Tetracycline is an antibiotic. Today there are Doxycycline, Minocycline, ... are antibiotics in the same group with Tetracycline.
If the mother drinks these drugs during pregnancy or the child drinks them before 7-8 years of age, they can cause discoloration. The degree of darkening depends on the time, the duration of the drug, the dosage and the drug. The teeth can become yellow, brown or grayish.
This change in color may occur on the entire tooth or in a particular area, causing the tooth to have different bands of color. In severe cases, the teeth may be missing, defective, loss of normal shape.
Vietnam is a country with many patients with discolored teeth due to Tétracycline infection, the consequence of difficulties during the war when the physician did not have much choice for the type of antibiotics for patients.
Fluo Infection: Fluoro is a chemical that can be found in nature (for example in well water), because it is resistant to decay so often added to tap water, milk, toothpaste ...
If pregnant women or children swallow fluids too much from the above sources, teeth will have brown spots or milky white. Severe cases can cause structural defects.
In addition, some other diseases of the teeth or blood can change the color of the teeth (such as incomplete fermentation, inappropriate Rhesus factor between mother and child ...).
Some cases of Tetracyline infection:
The infected teeth are dark yellow
- The teeth are dark gray
- The teeth fall brown, with less production
- Gray-brown teeth are dark gray, with less glaucoma
For light tanning, bleaching can be used, but if teeth are heavily contaminated or accompanied by dental enamel defects, the choice of porcelain dental restorations is a matter of choice. choose the most optimal.

What is Cercon?
In non-dental all materials can simultaneously meet the aesthetic requirements and durability of dental restorations. So far the two materials are commonly used to fill the sphere and tooth crown is metal (to make the interior ribs firmly restorative) and porcelain (covered outside to create aesthetics).
However, not all metals are compatible with the gums and higher aesthetic requirements, requiring porcelain to have more superior optical properties.
A high-tech material, Zirconium Oxide, with rigidity and biocompatibility, has been used extensively in high tech and medical technologies.
Today, this material is widely used in dentistry thanks to Cercon Smart Ceramics technology. The Cercon Smart Ceramics system is based on the latest advances in CAD / CAM technology that allow the use of laser scanners to imaging patients' teeth and jaw. Then, with specialized graphics software, The orthodontic or crown orthodontic surgeon has the optimum surgical shape and structure to withstand the complex chewing force in the mouth. Finally, the automated grinding process produces a highly accurate rib cage. The frame will be heated at 1350oC for 6 hours to achieve a hardness of about 900MPa (equivalent to 9,777 kg / cm2) and is coated with Cercon Ceram Kiss porcelain with optical properties such as natural teeth. Perfect. This technology allows crowns to reach close to 50.7 microns.
Interoperability with soft tissue in the mouth:
So far, through tests on the biological compatibility of Cercon and Zirconia - the major component of Cercon, which has been used in patients for more than 20 years, no allergy has been identified. patient. Allergic reactions commonly seen in metal restorations are completely eliminated when reconstituted with Cercon material.
Other properties of Cercon porcelain restorations such as resistance to plaque buildup on the tooth surface keep teeth clean, do not interact with other materials in the mouth, Coronation with Cercon better adapts to the oral environment
Aesthetic and functional
In addition to its rigid and biocompatible nature, the aesthetic element and the ability to maintain chewing functions are considered a decisive factor when selecting restorations with Cercon porcelain.
Cercon Ceram Kiss Ceramics have optical properties such as natural teeth for lively beauty like real teeth.
This property is expressed in all lighting conditions.
