Longmont Lumineers Dentist Explains How to Use Lumineers to Perfect Your Smile

Have you ever looked in the mirror and wished that your smile looked a little (or a lot) different? Maybe you have persistent stains on your dental enamel, or cracked or chipped teeth. Perhaps your teeth are crooked or misaligned. There are a variety of cosmetic options out there that can transform your teeth—you have options! One option is the cosmetic application of dental Lumineers. Many patients swear by Lumineers because they can correct a variety of cosmetic problems at once, and they quickly give you a white, bright smile.

 

What Are Dental Lumineers?

 

Lumineers are made of thin, strong layers of porcelain. They are custom shaped and shaded to enhance your natural smile. Porcelain’s luminosity and translucency mimic natural enamel for exceptional aesthetic results. Lumineers are attached directly to dental enamel—unlike traditional veneers, Lumineers do not require excessive grinding and filing of healthy tooth structure.

 

Can They Help Me?

 

Probably! Lumineers are suitable for a variety of patients, and they can fix a number of different cosmetic problems. You can check with our Longmont Lumineers dental office to find out if they can help you correct:

 

·      Your cracked or chipped enamel

·      Stained, dark teeth

·      Misaligned and crowded teeth

·      Large gaps between teeth

·      Grooved or pitted dental enamel due to injury or dental fluorosis

 

Because Lumineers are affixed over dental enamel they can resurface the appearance all kinds of problems with dental enamel.  Many patients prefer Lumineers over other cosmetic options because they can completely transform a patient’s smile in only one or two visits. Rather than undergoing months or years of orthodontics, or keeping up with regular teeth whitening treatments, patients can get a straight, white smile with Lumineers. Porcelain Lumineers are also stain-resistant to keep your smile white for years to come.
