This reminds me of our once great love of miniatures. Artists who worked in miniature were accorded great status during various historical eras. In the sixteenth century names such as Don Giulio Clovio and Luke Hornebolte are associated with this emerging genre. Hand-crafted porcelain veneers: When dentistry gets close to art it puts me in mind of this. Similarly the watchmaker with his tiny instruments and magnifying lens works in the miniature. The cosmetic dentist, too, must craft perfection on this smallest of canvasses within the confines of the oral cavity.

Dental Technicians are Artists with Porcelain Veneers

Indeed, it is the unheralded dental laboratory technician who handcrafts porcelain veneers to match perfectly with the client’s teeth who should also be recognised. Great art is happening in dental clinics around the nation in the name of sublime dentistry for you and me. Imagine that you have a little bit of Picasso or Van Gogh inside of your oral cavity. How exciting to dream of art in the miniature realm? When two worlds collide like this it is so invigorating and there is no such thing as being bored. Who would have thought that dentistry could be so close to the risqué world of fine art?

What Are the Risks in Getting Porcelain Veneers?

Are there any risks in getting porcelain veneers such as damage to teeth? No, because only a very thin layer of enamel is removed in preparation of adding volume to the tooth via the veneer. It is recommended that all clients have a thorough check up with their dentist prior to getting veneers to ascertain the state of dental health. Regular checks up will maintain good oral hygiene for the life of the porcelain veneers. Perfectly marched porcelain veneers will transform your smile into a work of art bringing joy to all who witness your transformation.

The simple fact is that people smile more often – confidence is restored and the world is a better place. Helping others to achieve a more pleasing visage is one of the nice things about being a cosmetic dentist, according to a recent report I read. The standard of cosmetic dentistry in Australia is so high that comparisons with fine art in the miniature is no long bow or brush. The quality of porcelain and the artistry involved are all top shelf and second to none. It would make an artist specialising in miniatures glow with pride in a job well done. The long history of art miniatures stretches across the globe and back into antiquity.
