 Cosmetic Dental Lab To achieve an optimal aesthetic result, the dental team must have a clear vision of what is artistically possible and functionally appropriate. This is why we work so closely with our master ceramists. The Key: Working with a Master Dental Ceramist A Master Ceramist is a very skilled artesian that hand sculpts, hand paints and hand fires dental ceramic materials. A Master Ceramist must have many years of training in the arts and sciences of cosmetic dentistry, ceramics, porcelain and related materials. The visual outcome of any cosmetic dental makeover is the end result of not only the cosmetic dentist, but also that of the ceramist. What a lot of people don't realize, is that to get a beautiful replica of a natural tooth, each one has to be custom designed and hand made. Each tooth is like a little sculpture - a little work of art. The teeth can be sculpted to result in a more masculine shape, or feminine, sexy, or sporty smile. When teeth grow, they develop in multiple layers, much like a pearl. That's maybe why sometimes people call beautiful teeth "pearly whites." And when you look closely at a pearl, you can see a little rainbow of blues, pinks, yellows, and grays. Natural teeth are like that too, instead of just being a solid white. Our master ceramist sculpts each individual tooth like it grew, hand-painting the colors and the porcelains in layers - thus mimicking nature. Then, after layering more porcelain, each tooth is hand fired in a kiln or oven as many as five or more times to achieve the natural, glossy look of real teeth. |
