Achieve a more beautiful smile with Lumineers®! Lumineers are specially designed, ultra-thin dental veneers. Lumineers are uniquely created to mimic the natural appearance of tooth enamel to create beautiful and long-lasting solutions for your smile. Lumineers are also a more conservative cosmetic treatment, as they can often be placed and bonded to the surface of your tooth without the need to grind down any of your original tooth structure. This not only gives you a beautiful smile but also preserves your original teeth and makes the bonding procedure much more comfortable.
Lumineers typically require two appointments to complete. During the first, we take a mold of your teeth and consult with you to determine the correct shade of white for your Lumineers. Our dentists then send the mold to the DenMat lab, where all our Lumineers are created.
After your Lumineers have been created, you will have your second appointment. Our dentists will carefully and painlessly bond your Lumineers to your teeth. This takes about an hour, and you should not experience any sensitivity or discomfort — Lumineers are designed to feel comfortable and natural from the moment they are bonded in place.

FAQ
What are Lumineers, and how do they differ from traditional veneers?
Lumineers are ultra-thin, custom-made porcelain veneers designed to enhance the appearance of your teeth by covering imperfections such as discoloration, gaps or minor misalignment. Unlike traditional veneers, Lumineers typically require little to no tooth preparation, meaning less enamel is removed. This minimally invasive approach helps preserve your natural tooth structure while delivering a beautiful, natural-looking smile.
Are Lumineers a good option for everyone?
Lumineers are ideal for patients looking for a less invasive way to improve their smile’s appearance. They are especially suitable for those with minor cosmetic concerns, such as slight misalignment, gaps or stains. However, Lumineers may not be the best option for patients with severe dental issues, such as advanced decay or gum disease. A consultation with our experienced dentists will help determine if Lumineers are the best fit for your dental health and aesthetic goals.
How long do Lumineers last, and how should I care for them?
Lumineers are designed to be durable, often lasting 10 to 20 years with proper care. To extend their lifespan, maintain good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing daily, and visit our dentists and team for regular checkups. Avoid biting down on hard objects, as this can chip or damage Lumineers. With proper care, your Lumineers will help you enjoy a beautiful smile for many years.
What can I expect during the Lumineers procedure?
The Lumineers process is usually completed in two visits. During the first visit, our dentists will take impressions and choose the right shade for your smile. When your custom Lumineers are ready, you will return for the second appointment, where they will be carefully bonded to your teeth. The process is generally comfortable, as little to no tooth reduction is required, and you will leave with a renewed, radiant smile.
