They are very thin layers that are attached to the tooth’s surface, similar to dental veneers. The ultra thin nature of Lumineers® allow our specialists to attach them without compromising the tooth’s natural surface. Patients choose Lumineers® to resolve the following issues:
Lumineers® unlocks the full potential of your smile in just two visits.
At the initial consultation, impressions, and photos of your teeth capture everything our team needs to create a masterpiece. We send the records to a Lumineer lab that crafts custom veneers for you.
Once the veneers are handcrafted, we’ll place them with bonding after evaluating the fit and appearance.
With the proper care, Lumineers can last up to 20 years. To extend their lifespan, it is essential to practice proper oral hygiene and attend maintenance visits with your dental professional.
The cost of Lumineers depends on the amount and size of teeth that need to be fixed. The position of your tooth may also affect the cost of your Lumineers. It is advised to speak with your dental insurance to ensure if the cost is covered.
