That’s it – a healthy, natural, permanently white smile you’ve always wanted in only 2 visits. While traditional veneers involve a much longer, more painful process that can take months, LUMINEERS placement is quick and painless.

What is the difference between Lumineers and standard porcelain veneers?

The main difference is that Lumineers are made from a special patented cerinate porcelain that is very strong but much thinner than traditional laboratory-fabricated veneers. Their thickness is comparable to contact lenses, and so they are often called contact lenses for your teeth. The main advantage of these ultra-thin veneers is that minimal tooth preparation is required. In other words, very little – if any – of your natural tooth structure needs to be removed through shaving or grinding prior to bonding the Lumineers over your natural teeth. As a result, the procedure is often reversible, since your natural tooth structure is left intact, unlike traditional veneers, where a significant amount of your tooth structure may need to be removed. Lumineers are so versatile that they can be placed over existing crown and bridge work, without the need to replace them. They are the perfect solution for stained, chipped, discoloured or slightly misaligned teeth.

How do I know if I’m a good candidate?

We have to look at the health of the gums and whether they need to be reshaped, if they do we have to make sure that we are within the correct parameters for correction, otherwise it can create gum problems.  Nevertheless, great care needs to be taken when placing any type of veneers to make sure that gum health is maintained and is is at an optimum level during treatment.
