Lumineers
Lumineers® is an advanced technology that allows the dentist to bond thin porcelain facings on to the surface of your teeth to change the shape, color and/or make small corrections to position of teeth. The unique quality of the Lumineers® system is that it does not require any removal of your existing emamel. This sounds like a good thing, and it may be for patients with the perfect "bite", but Lumineers® will not work in the presence of biting stress. Sometimes the conventional minor tooth preparation for regular porcelain veneers is best. Sometimes straightening the teeth and simple tooth whitening is the best choice.
**The only way to know if you are a candidate for Lumineers® is to come in for a consultation to learn about your options. www.lumineers.com
**"Lumineers" are marketed by a very aggressive commercial outfit. You will see them advertise that they have a special list of "Lumineer Dentists". The dentists who are listed on this special list are dentists who pay Lumineers more than $2000 per month to have their name listed. Yes, you read that right... $2000 per month. Frankly, that worries me. Lumineers will give you the impression that these dentists have some special professional skills, but it is strictly an advertising contract. This listing has nothing to do with skill. You should know that any dentist can place lumineers after taking a special 2-day course.
To my mind, I'd rather have my family and friends treated with lumineers by a dentist who has an expertise and a long successful track record with cosmetic dentistry. How do you find out about that?... Ask the dentist who might do your lumineers for lots of before/after photos of their patients' smiles. All dentists who do a lot of cosmetic dentistry are constantly taking good before/after photos of their work and they will love sharing them with you. We can show you volumes of photos.
Lumineers® can make you SMILE in an Extremely Pleasant way.
