Lumineers Have Become a Very Popular Choice

So, suppose you’re looking to improve the appearance of your smile with cosmetic dentistry and remove stains and tooth discolouration, then our restorative expert dentist. In that case, Dr Bloom suggests opting for veneers over crowns or bleaching.

Dental Veneers Are Reducing the Appearance of:

  • Chipped or crooked teeth
  • Gaps in between teeth or uneven spaces
  • Discoloured or stained teeth

Veneers and lumineers are very similar due to the same functionalities and benefits. They only differ when it comes to their procedures and their long-term effects.

In some cases, patients are nervous to get veneers as in order to fit them the original tooth needs to be shaved down and the enamel removed, which leaves your tooth vulnerable if there veneer is not there to protect.

Lumineers, on the other hand, require no discomfort and cap onto your original tooth without the need to shave it down.

However, this means that lumineers are bulkier and slightly more obvious in comparison to veneers.

Do Veneers Last Longer Than Lumineers?

Because they only differ when it comes to the process in which they are fitted, one is not more durable than the other.

Lumineers are actually expected to last just as long as traditional veneers. This is usually between 10-15 years with the right care.

Pain-free Treatments

Veneers are usually not painful whilst you are having the treatment.

However, some have reported slight sensitivity during the settling down after the final fitting – this is quite normal and nothing to worry over. It usually only lasts for a few days and very soon after subsidies. More.

The sensitivity is due to the bonding process where an inorganic substance (the veneer) bonded to an organic component (your tooth).

In complex cases, involving a large amount of treatment, you may experience a little uncomfortableness while your teeth settle down.

Treatment Plan
  • At your first appointment, your dentist will look at the general health of your teeth and gums, your bite and understand your goals for your smile; and then see if any fundamental issues need addressing before cosmetic veneer work can begin.
  • We will also discuss the type of veneers that may be suitable and how many veneers you’ll likely need to achieve your desired smile. In some patients, it may be possible to get some veneers placed at an initial phase and then have the possibility of additional shells in the future.

Minimal or No Preparation
  • We will always plan your new smile before any treatment begins. We aim to provide you with the most conservative and preservative dentistry.
  • To prevent excessive tooth preparation, we design your new smile in a way that minimises tooth preparation. We also provide options to have orthodontic or teeth straightening treatment carried out before any cosmetic veneer work starts.
  • Your teeth are already well aligned, so very minimal or hardly any tooth preparation becomes necessary.
  • If you are concerned, we advise that you speak to us in your complimentary consultation. We will be able to provide you with suitable solutions. More.
