5 consequences of performing porcelain veneers incorrectly

If done correctly, porcelain veneers are quite safe and do not affect oral health, but if done incorrectly, it can lead to many bad consequences...

1. Improper porcelain bonding technique can cause sensitive teeth.

- Poor quality porcelain: To apply porcelain crowns, the tooth must be ground down by 0.2 - 0.5 mm, then the porcelain crown must be applied to the tooth surface. Therefore, if using poor quality porcelain of unknown origin, porcelain crowns will easily break, chip, fall off and affect chewing function. Poor quality porcelain crowns have poor heat insulation, making teeth sensitive and painful when eating hot or cold foods.

- Grinding teeth in the wrong proportion affects real teeth, causing toothache, discomfort, more sensitive teeth, and negatively affecting the tooth pulp.

2. Affects the bite

Incorrect porcelain bonding technique that affects the bite is usually due to poor dentist skills. Incorrect porcelain bonding technique will cause the teeth to be bulky, and can even cause misaligned bite.

Usually, people with porcelain veneers will feel uncomfortable when chewing, and have difficulty using their front teeth to bite off food. If this condition persists, it will lead to oral diseases, the most serious of which is misalignment of the temporomandibular joint. In this case, you need to go to the dental clinic to adjust the porcelain veneers immediately to avoid serious consequences.

3. Affects real teeth

If the porcelain veneer technique is not done properly, the original tooth will be easily damaged: The real tooth will be loose, limiting the ability to chew. Therefore, the tooth grinding before porcelain veneer must be precise, creating a good fit between the veneer and the real tooth.

5. Reduced root tooth life

Improper porcelain bonding techniques can also affect the longevity of real teeth. The reason is that dentists performing this technique are inexperienced, inexperienced, and careless. The consequences can cause teeth to become loose, or even lose teeth permanently.
