There are plenty of big claims about cosmetic dentistry being made on the Internet. We’re not trying to aggravate the problem – we’re just excited about the incredible capabilities of porcelain veneers. LUMINEERS are legitimately life-changing, in more ways than one. After remaking your smile with LUMINEERS, you’ll be amazed by the simplicity of the treatment process, the aesthetics of your new smile, and the new way you approach the world (as well as the way the world responds).
Changes Possible with LUMINEERS
Some patients are anxious that their cosmetic dental work will be noticeable. Don’t misunderstand: we want your smile to stand out, but only because it’s dazzling, not because it shows signs of dental work. The cerinate porcelain that makes up LUMINEERS is aesthetically ideal, and indistinguishable from natural enamel. The thin porcelain is slightly translucent, and also mimics enamel’s texture. After your veneer procedure, you won’t be able to tell the difference between your own teeth and your LUMINEERS. Your friends, coworkers, and loved ones will notice how beautiful your smile looks, but they won’t find it anything less than natural-looking.
LUMINEERS allow patients to
- Lengthen teeth
- Straighten teeth
- Close spaces
- Cover cracks, chips, or breaks
- Permanently whiten
- Add symmetry
- Completely remake front teeth
Porcelain Veneers and Your Confidence
When your smile doesn’t truly represent you, you’re much less likely to show it. Lacking teeth can also inspire less-than-stellar self confidence. Without an easy smile, you’re missing out on a great deal of social and personal benefits. And once you’ve changed your teeth into exactly what you’d like them to be, your smile is going to be self-starting. Those around you will be impressed by your friendliness, capability, and level of personal care. More importantly, your smile will help you feel better about yourself. Teeth that you’re proud of make you into a more take-charge person. You’re comfortable drawing attention to yourself, and able to speak up when it’s right.
All this is possible with sets of LUMINEERS.
How Dental Veneers Strengthen Teeth
Veneers actually improve the function of your teeth as they improve aesthetics. Because veneers create a new, outer layer, they strengthen your natural teeth. If you have worn enamel or weakened teeth, LUMINEERS will protect those structures. Patients with sensitive teeth will also experience relief from daily twinges and pain.
Advantages of the LUMINEERS Procedure
The thinner a veneers is, the more comfortable its application and the more natural its aesthetics. For this reason, Hinsdale Dentistry sought out the thinnest veneers on the market. Contact lens-thin LUMINEERS offer an ideal veneer procedure, including:
- Less/no anesthesia – In order to receive a standard veneer, patients typically need to have their teeth prepped. Some natural structure will be removed to make room for the veneer to fit. LUMINEERS are thin enough to occasionally fit over natural teeth without reduction. This makes the procedure anesthesia-free, and eliminates downtime.
- No loss of natural tooth – LUMINEERS sometimes allow you to revamp your smile without any removal of natural tooth structure.
- No temporary wear – Should your LUMINEERS case be no-prep, you’ll cut down on time spent in the dental chair. We won’t need to put temporaries on your teeth while you wait for your veneers to arrive, as your natural teeth won’t be reduced in any way. Simpler is always better!
