[Medical Today = Reporter Kim Jun-su] In modern society, appearance plays an important role. In particular, many people are interested in appearance as SNS activities become more active with the rapidly changing era. Although the standards of beauty vary, organized teeth play an important role in forming a person's impression, especially the front teeth, which are a prominent part of their appearance, and more and more people are trying to overcome their complex.

Over time, people who complain of pain due to uneven or discoloration of the opening or distorted shape of the front teeth, or difficulties in using the front teeth due to the loss of functional problems with the front teeth, sometimes try orthodontics for this reason, but more and more people are trying laminate that makes teeth neat and clean because it takes a long time to correct orthodontics and getting regular teeth whitening is a burden.

Laminate has recently become known as a popular item among celebrities, and it has the advantage of having excellent aesthetics by attaching a thin layer of artificial teeth on top of a nail, and can satisfy both functions and aesthetics with a small amount of tooth deletion in a short time.

When choosing a laminate dentist, it is important for medical staff to propose and plan one-on-one customized treatment, such as determining whether laminate treatment is possible according to the patient's tooth condition before the procedure and determining the laminate design in consideration of face ratio.

"Laminates are made of human-friendly materials and have excellent stability, but the technical skills of medical staff with expertise, proficiency, and experience are important because medical staff's ability to perform procedures is important for reasons such as tooth removal," said Park Hyun-min, head of Lucid Dental Clinic in Seoul. "It is important to consider whether the dentist can make prosthetics on its own because dentistry can be more satisfied with the procedure."

"It is important to thoroughly check for follow-up care, such as regular checkups and AS guarantee services, so that the laminate can improve the functional and cosmetic problems of teeth so that their beauty and teeth can be healthy," he added.
