Why are Lumineers Right for You?
In 1983 the first thin veneer, Cerinate Porcelain Veneers, later renamed Lumineers, were created. In 37 years, more than 13,000 dentists nationwide recommend Lumineers for people who have cracked or chipped teeth, tooth discoloration, unusual shape teeth, or gaps between teeth. Over one million units have been placed. Many celebrities have transformed their smiles with Lumineers, and their smiles look so naturally beautiful.
Lumineers give you the unique opportunity of seeing potential results before you commit. You can see gaps, stains, or crooked teeth turn into a straight, white smile while you wait!
Usually, just in only 2 comfortable dental appointments, you can get a beautiful and natural-looking smile.
Regular veneers are thicker. They require more aggressive and irreversible removal of healthy and sensitive tooth structure. Before placing traditional veneers, the surface of the tooth must be ground down to accept the thickness of the veneer. Lumineers made of “ultra-thin” laminate and are thinner than traditional veneers (approximately 0.2 mm), allowing them to be placed with little or no modification to the tooth.
The extensive preparation technique frequently requires shots and anesthesia to minimize sensitivity and pain and typically involves the placement of acrylic temporaries for over two weeks between visits. The Lumineers technique is minimally invasive and typically eliminates the need for shots.
Lumineers Benefits:
• No damage to your teeth and no removal of sensitive tooth structure
• Fix uneven spacing and fill visible gaps
• Easy to lengthen short teeth
• Easy to reshape awkward teeth
• No drilling, shots, or pain
• Safe for sensitive patients
• Lumineers feel and look more natural than veneers
• Clinically proven to last over 20 years
• Lumineers are semi-permanent, and if needed can be removed with minimal damage
Many dentists offer porcelain veneers, and this is a great solution that can provide a natural look appearance. But at the same time, Lumineers could be a better choice to treat all kinds of dental cosmetic flaws. Lumineers can make your smile more beautiful and brighter without removing painful tooth structure. Did you know that smiling is good for your health? Studies have shown that the act of smiling can lift your mood, lower stress, and boost your immune system.
