5/8/2017 0 Comments Lumineers OptionsLumineers are a dream come true for the dentally disadvantaged looking for options. These translucent covers, or laminates, act as camouflage for all the flaws in your teeth. This includes:
Teeth with heavy extrinsic stains either from nicotine, tetracycline exposure, or aging • Teeth excessively gapped or spaced • Old crowns and fillings • Chipped, cracked, or crooked teeth • Crown length that is less than ideal, or a gummy smile Thinness is one reason Lumineers is a desired option. Other veneers typically require the teeth to be altered before placement—usually by shaving a layer of enamel to guarantee fit. Through superior technology, Lumineers by Cerinate eliminate the one unnatural aspect of veneer treatment—thickness. After your Los Angeles Lumineers dentist applies your laminates, your teeth will retain full functionality with restored visuals. This process doesn’t require drilling or injection, and you can expect the product to last for 10 years or more. Cerinate, the principal component of Lumineers, is high-quality porcelain that’s extremely resistant to stress. If you grind your teeth excessively or have severe gum disease, you may need other treatment before getting your veneers. Call our office today for more Lumineers options.

If your teeth are relatively healthy but you still have doubts about your smile, consider Lumineers. Only a Los Angeles Lumineers expert can confirm your candidacy, but these ultra-thin porcelain laminates can improve teeth simply by camouflage. There are no invasive tactics, like drilling or anesthetic, and you only need to visit the dentist twice in most cases.
Issues that qualify you for Lumineers include: • Gapped or spaced teeth • Crooked or rotated bicuspids or incisors • Stained or discolored teeth If your cases are mild and your teeth are average or below average in size, you may make an ideal candidate. If you have teeth that are larger than average, Lumineers may not make visual sense. One of the attractions of Lumineers is their “no-prep” status, meaning your natural teeth do not have to be altered structurally to accommodate them. However, putting them over naturally large teeth could cause them to look bulky and unnatural. Once you agree to Lumineers treatment, your two sessions will consist of taking a mold and choosing the style of your laminates. The second session is the installation, after your laminates are created in the lab. For more about the process, consult our collected Lumineers reviews. |
