What Are Lumineers?
Lumineers are ultra-thin porcelain veneers designed to be placed over the front surfaces of teeth with little to no removal of natural enamel. Because of their slim design, Lumineers can often be applied without injections or temporary restorations. They are digitally designed and custom-crafted to blend seamlessly with your natural smile, offering a conservative approach to cosmetic enhancement.
Lumineers Procedure: Step-by-Step
Lumineers® are known for their ultra-thin design and conservative approach to smile enhancement. While many patients can receive Lumineers with little to no enamel removal, some smiles may benefit from minimal preparation to achieve optimal fit, comfort, and aesthetics.
The photos shown highlight steps that may be involved during the Lumineers process. Your personalized treatment plan will be discussed during your consultation.
