If you desire a perfect smile, but can’t stand the thought of having veneers applied to your teeth, you’ll be pleased to learn there is a pain-free alternative. Lumineers are porcelain coverings, made from a patented type of porcelain known as Cerinate. Unlike porcelain veneers, your dentist can apply these contact lens-thin veneers without any grinding, shaving or even anesthesia and if desired they can be removed.
Lumineers laminates are about as thick as a contact-lens. Specialists claim that they resist micro-leakage and micro-cracking more so than usual porcelain veneers. Unlike other porcelain veneers, you won’t need temporary veneers until the Lumineers are finished. Lumineers should last just as long as traditional porcelain veneers and usually cost less than traditional dental laminates.
Lumineers can strengthen, lengthen, shape and offer permanent whitening to your teeth. They can visually repair small tooth imperfections, are natural in appearance, and highly resilient. Lumineers can be a better solution for adults, with no severe bite problems, who are considering braces to change the shape and alignment of their teeth.
There are disadvantages to Lumineers. There is a limit to how much cosmetic correction can be accomplished, as there is no tooth reduction needed for Lumineers. This can also lead to massive appearing and feeling veneers in some cases. Also, bite problems can lead to damage of the Lumineer.
Since these are a little thinner than the average veneer, it requires more skill and artistry on the part of the cosmetic dentist and the laboratory regarding color management and shaping. It is advisable to seek the services of an expert cosmetic dentist, and make sure to view the dentist’s previous work with Lumineers.
