From Ordinary to Dazzling

Porcelain veneers are a dramatic breakthrough in cosmetic dentistry. In the hands of a skilled cosmetic dentist, veneers can transform worn, misshapen, broken and discolored teeth into the most naturally beautiful smiles possible. Veneers are conservative dentistry that can make dramatic changes in your smile. Often, porcelain veneers provide a completely improved and dazzling smile in just a few appointments. You may also benefit from Lumineers by Cerinate — porcelain veneers that offer a painless way to a permanently whiter and perfectly aligned smile. Your dentist can apply these contact lens-thin “smile shapers” to your teeth without any grinding of your natural tooth structure, transforming teeth into a naturally beautiful smile. Lumineers can even be placed over existing crown or bridgework without having to replace them.

The Harley Street Smile Clinic offer both the No Prep veneers (Lumineers) and the Minimal Prep veneers for their patients. Usually a case may involve a combination of veneers where some teeth have to be prepped in order to reduce protrusion say, and then there are teeth that are already set back in the mouth and do not need to be prepped at all as they need to be built forward. Lumineers really only work on teeth that have no overlap, or no protrusion. As they just stick to the natural tooth, if there is any crookedness, they are not likely to look that good as they may have to be a lot thicker in some areas to align them perfectly with each other.
