Let’s also talk about porcelain crowns

  Once upon a time, it became a fashion to have porcelain teeth. Although the price is not expensive, but still sought after hot, especially many celebrities have become the pioneer of porcelain teeth, such as the well-known Zhang Ziyi, Zhao Wei, Lin Zhiling, S, Cecilia Cheung, Hou Peiqin, etc.. Fans often say, look at people’s teeth, made like the real thing. How does that sound so awkward! Then we, especially the ladies who love beauty, can’t help but ask – porcelain teeth, can just do?
     Viewpoint 1: My teeth are relatively flush, but not white enough, you see the TV commercials in the beauty of a mouthful of small white teeth, like a diamond shiny, really makes people thumping.
  Viewpoint 2: I am a typical tetracycline teeth, the root of the disease done when I was small, in front of people are afraid to open mouth smile, do not know also praise me smile does not show teeth.
  If the teeth are not large defects, the color is basically normal, in many cases is not necessary to do porcelain teeth. As for tetracycline teeth, if I do not particularly care about aesthetics, or no special occupational requirements, life can be very happy, confident communication with people, you can also consider not doing porcelain crowns. Because doing porcelain teeth, the overall damage to the teeth is relatively large.
  Let’s take a look at how porcelain teeth with live nerves are made. First, the enamel is polished; then, on top of that, the corresponding porcelain crown is made; finally, the crown is glued to the polished tooth. Because the porcelain crown has a certain thickness, the amount of tooth removal is considerable, generally to remove about 1/2, so the cost of the United States is not small, and the adult permanent teeth can not be regenerated, grinding regret is too late.

  So what people are suitable for porcelain teeth?
  Tooth color heavy change, congenital malformation of tooth development, various reasons for large tooth defects (such as worm teeth, dental trauma, teeth only remaining roots, etc.), dental treatment to prevent tooth splitting, set fixed dentures need to be used as abutment teeth, because of certain defects in teeth seriously affect the quality of life and personal psychology, or occupation has special requirements for dental aesthetics, such as actors, hosts, etc., the above cases are generally With simple fillings or resin filling is very difficult to achieve the purpose of treatment, then you can consider the need to do porcelain teeth for aesthetic and practical purposes.
  How long is the life of porcelain teeth?
  Viewpoint 1: I heard that porcelain dental materials are good, the life expectancy can reach more than ten years, I still want to do porcelain teeth.
  Point of view 2: domestic porcelain teeth are easy to chipped, to do on the imported.
  Porcelain teeth life is different from person to person. Because of the great variability of individuals, it is difficult to say that there is a specific average age, it has a lot to do with many factors, such as the doctor’s design and treatment level, the choice of materials, equipment conditions, the process of mechanics and technical level, the remaining tooth condition. Even if the external conditions are identical, there are many factors that determine the service life of porcelain crowns, such as the use, the position of the porcelain teeth, personal chewing habits, periodontal health status, the presence of other missing teeth in the mouth, etc. will also have a different impact on the life of porcelain teeth.
  In reality, some porcelain teeth set a few months after the collapse of porcelain, which has many reasons: First, the level of sintered porcelain process, equipment, there are differences between the materials; Second, some small clinics there are not standardized production, the choice of poor quality metal or magnetic powder; Third, their oral conditions should not be ignored, if the upper and lower teeth bite distance is too low, porcelain crown outer porcelain powder thickness is not enough, the crown will appear when the force or bite hard objects The phenomenon of chipped porcelain, four is to bite into hard objects, such as open bottles of wine with teeth, accidentally bite sand and other situations, but also easy to cause local chipped porcelain.
  Some people think that since the technology of porcelain teeth is invented abroad, the quality of imported porcelain teeth must be better than the domestic, which is one-sided. Because since the 1950s, the emergence of porcelain dental technology abroad, the 70s introduced into China, this technology is increasingly popular in China. Now large general hospitals and dental hospitals use porcelain powder, crown internal metal, instruments and equipment, production technology, etc., basically imported from Germany, the United States, Japan and other developed countries, porcelain dental production level, technology, materials and foreign basic equivalent, and even in some aspects beyond. Chinese people are very smart and handy, during the Beijing Olympic Games, many foreign friends marveled at the high skills of Chinese dentists.
  Porcelain teeth need healthy roots or “neighbors” to support.
  Viewpoint 1: I am old, two incisors are lost, doctor, you give me a porcelain teeth
  Viewpoint 2: My two back teeth have been worm-eaten, can I have porcelain teeth?
  Tooth damage for too long, the remaining roots are too short, or periodontal situation is not very suitable for porcelain teeth, the reason is that porcelain teeth is only an outer crown, its internal need to have a strong core as a support, the core is professionally called pile core, need to be fixed in the root, if the root is not strong or too short, it is the same as no stone foundation as a foundation, like building on sand, the building In other words, without a strong and reliable root, the best porcelain crown is useless.
  People with too many missing teeth are less suitable for porcelain bridges, like using the next tooth as a bridge pier, to restore the missing teeth in the middle out. If, for example, the incisors are missing more than two (including two), the teeth on both sides (abutment teeth) can not afford. In layman’s terms, two people doing the work of three people can still afford it if it is well designed, but if two people are doing the work of four people, it will not be able to bear it. Some everyday charlatans may use this unregulated way, regardless of how many teeth you are missing, whether the remaining teeth are healthy or not, to find some self-consolidating resin material to the teeth, the remaining teeth and missing teeth fixed together, the patient will feel good from the short-term benefits, but in the long run will cause very serious adverse consequences, greatly shorten the life of the two sides of the abutment teeth, causing the abutment teeth loose, within a few years, I am afraid that we have to All of them will be extracted within a few years.
  The back teeth are usually 2-3 (the third refers to wisdom teeth), if the back teeth 2 missing, it is not suitable for porcelain bridge repair. Because even with wisdom teeth (if any) and a cusp in front of the abutment, from the burden of the abutment teeth can not bear; if there is no wisdom teeth, but the front two cusp to take the back two groove teeth, it will not work. This single-ended bridge model seems like a lever that will soon trigger periodontal problems in the front cuspids and make them loose prematurely.
  So is it okay to have more than 2 missing teeth and to keep them dry? Of course not. First, the long-term use of one eating, not only reduces the efficiency of chewing decision, but also increases the burden of the other side of the teeth; second, in the long run, it is also easy to cause facial asymmetry, temporomandibular joint pathology, etc.; third, the missing teeth below will cause the corresponding upper teeth to grow down (and vice versa), and the length of adult permanent teeth is fixed, which will inevitably lead to less and less part of the root wrapped in the bone, making Fourth, the teeth next to the missing teeth will be tilted toward the gap, which will easily cause the gap to widen, causing a series of problems such as blocked teeth, insect tooth or periodontal disease.
  Therefore, after tooth loss must be timely dental implants, if not suitable for fixed dentures, you can also choose to set the movable.
  How long after tooth loss or tooth extraction to go to the dental implant is appropriate
  In general, three months after tooth extraction can be set movable dentures. Because after tooth loss, the bone is a deep pit, the local bone ossification, flattening, reconstruction process takes about 3 months. There are also some special cases that can be set earlier, such as incisors after the extraction is really affecting the aesthetics, you can make a temporary movable denture before the extraction, and then set a long-term one after three months. There is also a case called immediate implantation, where the implant (artificial root) is placed in the socket immediately after the root is removed.
  Whether to choose “dental implants” or “porcelain teeth”.
  Viewpoint 1: Dental implant is to “plant” the seed of a tooth into the toothbed and it will grow back in a few weeks.
  Viewpoint 2: Porcelain teeth are not as strong as dental implants, doctor, you should give me a planting it.
  Many people are interested in dental implants, think that the teeth can be used at will, do not have to go to a good maintenance, tooth bad, lost planted a, it is good, in fact, this is a misunderstanding of dental implants, dental implants are not like planting a seed will blossom, grow new teeth. If there are worm teeth rotten to only a small part of the root, or the root of the tooth is lost as a whole, or if the patient does not accept the movable dentures, considers the brackets inconvenient and unattractive, and has too many missing teeth and no way to do fixed restoration and other conditions, dental implants can be considered when the physical condition allows.
  The process of dental implant is to first drill a hole in the alveolar bone, then put in an implant (artificial tooth root), usually made of titanium and other aviation materials, and then, connect a porcelain tooth to this root. It is not the common understanding that a “germ” is “planted” in the toothbed and a new tooth grows shortly afterwards. Of course, there are people working on this research, hoping to achieve in the future, when humans can grow teeth like crops, but now certainly not yet.
  The difference between a porcelain crown and a dental implant is whether the underlying foundation is your own root or an artificial root. In terms of price, of course, dental implants are much more expensive. Your own roots can be preserved and treated thoroughly as long as they are well preserved. If one tooth is missing, it is better to choose dental implants, if all conditions allow, because it does not need to damage any other good teeth.
  People who are uncomfortable with dental implants.
  Since dental implant is an invasive procedure, some people are not suitable for it. Specifically, they include: first, cardiovascular diseases, such as heart attack, uncontrollable hypertension patients; second, coagulation diseases, such as leukemia patients; third, severe diabetic patients, as diabetic patients are prone to infection, poor wound healing, and the bone does not bond well with the implant; fourth: poor conditions in the mouth, such as severe periodontal disease, too thin bone plate, etc.  Tooth color heavy change, congenital tooth development malformation, various reasons for large tooth defects (such as worm teeth, dental trauma, teeth only remaining roots, etc.), dental treatment to prevent tooth splitting, set fixed dentures need to be used as abutment teeth, due to some defects of teeth seriously affect the quality of life and personal psychology, or occupation has special requirements for dental aesthetics, such as actors, hosts, etc., the above cases are generally With simple fillings or resin filling is very difficult to achieve the purpose of treatment, then you can consider the need to do porcelain teeth for aesthetic and practical purposes.
