Laminates in Newark, NJ

Thinking about getting laminates? Gentle Dental in Newark, New Jersey, is ready to help! Contact us today to schedule your appointment and discover how dental laminates can change the condition of your teeth!

What Are Laminates?

Laminates are thin shells made of ceramic or porcelain that are placed over the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. The thickness of laminates ranges from 0.2 to 0.5 mm.

Even though they are thin, they look just like natural teeth. They also have great color stability. Additionally, laminates do not harm the gums and surrounding teeth. They can usually be applied without changing the natural teeth at all.

When You May Need Laminates?

Wondering if dental laminates are right for you? Here are some signs that suggest you might benefit from them:

Discolored Teeth

Dental laminates are a popular choice for addressing tooth discoloration. If your teeth are stained or yellowed from aging, smoking, or drinking alcohol or tobacco, laminates can help restore their bright appearance.

Cracked Teeth

If accidents or excessive grinding have left you with chips or cracks, laminates can cover these imperfections, giving your teeth a smooth, flawless look.

Misaligned Teeth

For teeth that are slightly misaligned, laminates can enhance your smile’s symmetry without the need for braces or orthodontic treatments.

Gaps Between Teeth

If gaps between your teeth make you self-conscious, laminates can fill these spaces and create a more even smile.

Worn Down Teeth

Teeth that are worn down from grinding or erosion can be restored to their natural length and shape with laminates.

Unwanted Tooth Size

If your teeth are smaller than you’d like, laminates can add volume and make your smile look more balanced.

Sensitivity Issues

Although laminates don’t directly address sensitivity, they can cover sensitive areas and protect the underlying tooth structure, helping to reduce sensitivity issues.

What Are the Benefits of  Getting Laminates?

  1. Laminates can enhance the color, shape, and alignment of your teeth.
  2. They are resistant to stains. This helps keep your smile bright over time.
  3. Laminates are non-porous. Thus, they do not easily trap bacteria.
  4. Modern laminates can last between 10 to 20 years. Thus, they are less likely to crack when you eat hard foods like nuts.
  5. Laminates require little maintenance. You only need to brush your teeth daily and use mouthwash to keep your mouth clean.
  6. They do not cause gum sensitivity compared to teeth whitening treatments
