Lumineers In Wilmington

Lumineers Are The Best In Dental Veneers

One of the most popular no-prep veneer brands is Lumineers. They're a non-invasive alternative to traditional veneer treatments for people who don't want to commit to a permanent procedure.

Lumineers are more comfortable to complete as a "no-prep" treatment because they can be placed directly on top of healthy teeth. There is no need for numbing!

Lumineers vs. Porcelain Veneers

Unlike traditional veneers, Lumineers do not require the removal of a thin layer of enamel. Because of their no-prep and ultra-thin design, Lumineers can be placed directly over your natural tooth structure without appearing bulky and removed at any point in the future. Each thin veneer bonds to the tooth behind it and is thick enough to change the appearance of your smile while thin enough to be attractive.

Lumineers Are Reversible

Not ready for a long-term commitment? You can have your Lumineers removed at any time. You will not require any further treatment as a result of this procedure, the way you would with traditional crowns or veneers. With conventional porcelain veneers, your tooth shape is permanently altered, requiring re-treatment with a new veneer or a full-coverage crown. Lumineers can be removed at any time for any reason.

Candidates for Lumineers

Although Lumineers can make your teeth appear straighter and whiter, you must have the proper tooth anatomy for a no-prep veneer design. Teeth that are already large or slightly tipped outward do not usually qualify for a no-prep veneer. Smaller or shorter teeth are preferable because they allow for more space in your facial profile.

Getting Lumineers

A consultation and impression are required to design your new smile with Lumineers. After you and Dr. Graves have decided on the shape and color of your teeth, the mold and order are sent directly to a Lumineers lab. Your no-prep veneers will be ready to bond in place about two weeks later. Each Lumineers veneer will work together to make all of the teeth in your smile zone look brighter and healthier.
