What Lumineers Are
WebMD explains that veneers are devices that are bonded to teeth to improve aesthetic appearance. Lumineers are incredibly thin porcelain veneers designed to be durable and comfortable. By creating an even smile, this safe, non-surgical procedure improves your appearance quickly and conveniently. These translucent veneers bond to existing teeth to cover discolored, misshapen, or broken teeth.
“Lumineers are incredibly thin porcelain veneers designed to be durable and comfortable.”
Benefits of Lumineers
Lumineers have an average lifespan of 20 years. The special porcelain construction prevents this type of veneer from wearing down quickly and makes it resistant to staining. Furthermore, because they are so thin, they can be placed without grinding teeth down. For this reason, the Lumineer procedure is reversible. Patients who have damaged their Lumineers or want to change the way they look can easily have the veneers taken off and replaced.

Lumineers Treatment Details
The process of fitting Lumineers takes about two appointments. Before treatment can occur, we will examine the patient's teeth and discuss their goals and concerns. Once treatment starts, we will take upper and lower impressions of the patient's teeth and makes molds of the mouth and teeth. Patients then choose the perfect shade they want for their Lumineers.
Once we collect the impressions, we will send them to the lab where technicians create the custom Lumineers. When the Lumineers are ready, the patient will return for a fitting. There is typically no preparation needed for the teeth. The dentist will have the patient try them on to check for fit and then individually bond them to each tooth.

What To Expect After Receiving Lumineers
According to the Columbia College of Dentistry, the bonding material used to attach Lumineers to teeth feels natural. This material fills in chips, crevices, and gaps between teeth to give the veneers a smooth surface to attach to. Patients can resume their normal lifestyles immediately. There is no recovery time associated with the procedure because there is no need to grind down teeth to accommodate the veneers. Patients have no dietary restrictions but should maintain a good oral hygiene regimen and schedule regular dental appointments to keep the veneers in good condition.

Lumineers Vs. Veneers
Lumineers are a specific type of veneer. While they both cover teeth to help them appear whiter and straighter, there are some key differences between the two that people should consider. Lumineers are much thinner than traditional veneers, making them feel lighter and more natural.
However, their thin structure means that Lumineers cannot cover teeth with dramatically dark stains on them as veneers can. The process of applying veneers is more lengthy and invasive than for Lumineers since the removal of the tooth's surface must occur during preparation. This modification of teeth makes veneers permanent, while Lumineers are typically removable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Who is a candidate for Lumineers?
A. Lumineers are ideal for people with healthy gums who wish to cover damaged or mildly discolored teeth to improve their smile. However, Lumineers are thin, so they may not completely cover dark discoloration. For this reason, people with severe teeth staining may want to seek an alternative treatment.
Q. Are Lumineers safe?
A. Because Lumineers require minimal teeth modifications to fit properly, they are safe. Patients should have no recovery time, and there are few side effects associated with the procedure. The most common side effect is gingival inflammation, but the is rare and can be treated easily with medication.
Q. Are Lumineers comfortable?
A. Yes, they are. Because Lumineers are so thin, they feel comfortable immediately after being placed. Grinding teeth down is not necessary, so there is no discomfort during the placement procedure.
Q. How should Lumineers be cared for?
A. Lumineers can be treated the same as natural teeth. They are stain-resistant, so there is less need to avoid strongly colored foods or beverages. Proper dental hygiene is essential for maintaining the good condition of Lumineers.
Q. Which cosmetic problems can Lumineers help?
A. Lumineers cannot replace missing teeth. However, they are an ideal solution for nearly any other cosmetic dental problem. Uneven, misshaped, discolored, chipped, and cracked teeth can all be treated with Lumineers to create a more attractive smile.
Q. How long does it take to install Lumineers?
A. Since Lumineers are custom-made, it takes two or more visits to install them. The dentist will cast a mold of the patient's mouth during the first visit and determine which shade the Lumineers should be to look natural. Then the Lumineers are bonded to teeth in the second appointment.
