If you’re longing for a dazzling smile, Lumineers could be just what the doctor ordered! These amazing veneers create stunning smiles with minimal interference with tooth structure.

What are Lumineers?

Lumineers are ultra-thin veneers, which are used to create outstandingly beautiful smiles. Lumineers are as thin as a contact lens and they are designed to create amazing aesthetics, as well as providing strength and durability. Lumineers are thinner and lighter than other types of veneer and this means that the preparation phase is much less invasive. Normally, a layer of tooth structure has to be removed to make room for the veneers, but with Lumineers this is not necessary because the shells are so fine. This means that the structure of the tooth is preserved and the enamel is protected.

Treatment takes place in two stages, which are usually around 2 weeks apart. At the first appointment, we will explain how the treatment works and answer any questions you have and then we will create impressions of your teeth, which are sent to highly skilled technicians. After the veneers have been fabricated, they will then be fitted by your dentist. It is important make sure the veneers look perfect before they are bonded onto the teeth so your dentist will place them over your teeth and invite you to have a look at them before securing them firmly in place.

Why would I benefit from Lumineers?

If you have imperfections with your smile and you dream of a perfect set of pearly whites, Lumineers are a great option. They are ultra-thin, they have a beautiful natural looking sheen and they are extremely light and comfortable. Veneer treatment can literally transform your smile, from a stained, chipped and worn set of teeth into a radiant, red-carpet worthy smile.
