At City Dental Leeds, we pride ourselves in offering the brightest, more beautiful veneers and we are delighted to offer the amazing Lumineer system. Lumineers are made from patented ceramic, which comes all the way from the USA.
The ins and outs of Lumineers
Lumineers are a very popular type of veneer, which are made from a patented ceramic material by Cerinate. These veneers are crafted at the Cerinate studios in America and they are renowned for creating stunning smiles. Lumineers have a beautiful iridescent finish and they are up to twice as strong as traditional porcelain veneers.
Lumineers, like other veneers, sit over the top of the natural teeth and they produce amazing results. They have a very natural look and they are custom-made to match your design of the dream smile.
Lumineers are also extremely thin and light, which means that minimal preparation is required before the veneers are placed; this allows the tooth structure to remain intact and contributes to a simple, pain-free treatment process.
How could Lumineers benefit me?
Lumineers are hugely beneficial for patients who long for a radiant and flawless smile. They not only create beautiful smiles for those who want to enhance their natural smile, they also offer a really impressive solution for patients who have chipped, worn or discoloured teeth.

Every year that goes by, more and more techniques are developed to put the smile back in our mouths and convince us of the benefits of cosmetic dentistry and in Leeds you can see it everywhere you go. We’re constantly bombarded with images of people smiling the ‘perfect’ smile. But now it’s becoming more accessible to all of us and not just those in a poster or on the telly. Teeth do take a battering over time and become stained chipped or cracked and if you work in the public eye all the time, it’s almost become a requirement to look clean cut and confident, and radiating a glamorous smile can reflect that. One of the latest trends is to get lumineers fitted. They aren’t exactly long lasting mind, about 5 years maximum, but to dismiss their shelf life is to dismiss the philosophy behind them; they will restore an incredible sheen to the teeth. They are constructed from a patented porcelain that’s very thin (a third of a normal veneer) and very strong, and this is where they have an advantage over standard veneers when they are fitted. Tooth preparation is minimal- once the imprint has been taken and sent off to be made, the only work that is done to the tooth is a light polishing. None of the original enamel is removed from the tooth and the lumineer is simply bonded straight onto the tooth (making the process reversible) with a light cement and then cured with a heat lamp Normal treatment time is around 2 weeks from imprint to fitting. However, incorporating CEREC methods, the whole process can be done in a single sitting and being comparable in price to other procedures, lumineers are a very attractive option to those of us on the go.
Over time the colour of your teeth fades and you may experience gaps in your smile. This is as unavoidable as the greying of hair. But having the perfect smile is vital for boosting self-esteem. New Lumineer veneers can reshape your smile and give you the confidence that a winning smile allows by using the latest patented technology to increase efficiency.
Lumineers are porcelain veneers that can give you a pain-free smile makeover. Unlike traditional veneers, these are custom made to suit the shape and size of your teeth and can give you beautiful and natural looking teeth in very less time. Moreover Lumineers have a life of more than twenty years and you need not spend money over and over again to get a dazzling smile.
