THE SMILE OF YOUR DREAMSVirtually planned and uncompromisingly beautiful

Veneers are made from a special ceramic which is very thin but extremely resilient. Generally speaking, veneers are very durable – lasting up to 10 years or more. If defects do occur as a result of massive overloading, they are generally breaks or chipping, which can result in the veneer partially detaching and needing to be replaced. The veneer can be removed non-invasively in our practice using a state-of-the-art laser and without the tooth needing to be additionally ground.

Veneers are pieces of ceramic attached to the real tooth. The ceramic material of the veneer cannot discolour. The adhesive joints produced during the attachment may discolour with time, which is why they are located in the interdental spaces. This means any discolouration is generally not visible.

Prep veneers require grinding of the surface of the real tooth. The tooth is then fitted with an interim restoration until the actual veneer is produced and can be inserted. Patients who choose prep veneers must have their teeth permanently veneered.
No-prep veneers are considerably thinner than prep veneers. The teeth are not ground, but merely contoured at the necessary points. Interim restorations are not generally required. Creating and applying no-prep veneers requires extraordinary skill and experience on the part of both the dental technician and dentist. That makes the result even more impressive.

Veneers are made of ceramic, which retains its colour over its entire lifespan. Patients choosing to have veneers applied to real teeth should discuss the appearance of the final result with their dentist in advance. If necessary, the real teeth should be bleached prior to customisation of the veneers.

Ceramic implants made from zirconium dioxide are the most biological system for secure, healthy teeth with a natural appearance. With the high-performance ceramic zirconium dioxide, we here at INTEGRA employ an uncompromisingly high-quality, metal-free and therefore highly biocompatible material, which remains stable for decades and satisfies the highest requirements in terms of aesthetics and preservation of health. Completely white implant ceramic means no dark edges can become visible along the gingival margin or shine darkly through the gingiva, as is often the case with titanium implants. The material of the ceramic implants displays great body compatibility, is 100% biocompatible and is thus also suitable for health-conscious patients. At INTEGRA, our experienced implantologists utilise minimally invasive surgical techniques and the possibilities of biological dentistry. For you, that means considerably less pain and swelling as well as faster wound healing.

The mock-up serves as a detailed reference for how long, wide, rotated and inclined the teeth should be designed. However, the mock-up acrylic veneers are only attached to the teeth for test purposes and without grinding the teeth. It is therefore possible that the teeth seem a little thicker. The aim here is to have an idea of the change and to make any necessary modifications to satisfy your wishes. The veneers made of ceramic are unbelievably thin. The final result is a far more harmonious look again than in the case of the mock-up.

Smile Design in this form is unfortunately still only used by very few dentists. In addition to technical expertise and knowledge of dental aesthetics, it also requires modern and technical equipment as well as appropriate facilities for photography, etc.

We employ the aligner treatment with the renowned Invisalign system very often in our practice in Luxembourg. It offers a range of advantages over conventional orthodontics: the customised plastic splints from Invisalign are practically invisible, comfortable to wear and very effective. The first changes in the positioning of your teeth are visible after just a few weeks.

Here at INTEGRA in Luxembourg, we recommend Invisalign for the gradual correction of minor tooth misalignments such as overbites and underbites, tooth gaps, crowded teeth and crooked teeth. The high-performance plastic splints are produced especially for you. They integrate into your day-to-day life without any limitations, as the aligners can be removed quickly and easily for eating and dental hygiene. Getting the smile of your dreams is so convenient and simple at INTEGRA in Luxembourg.

Treatment with Invisalign is not covered by health insurance in Luxembourg for patients over the age of 16. Some additional policies cover part of the treatment costs.
