Lumineers Q & A

What are Lumineers?

Lumineers are tooth-like shells that bond to the front surfaces of your teeth and perfect your smile without invasive treatments. They’re like dental veneers, but thinner and take less time to apply. Lumineers also require less preparation, but offer the same gorgeous results. And they may be reversible, unlike veneers, which are permanent.

What are the benefits of Lumineers?

Lumineers at Greenhill Family Dental Care offer the following perks:

  • Gorgeous smile
  • Enhanced tooth size, shape, and color
  • Whiter teeth
  • Minimal preparation time
  • No pain or downtime
  • No removing tooth enamel
  • May be reversible 
  • Confident smile

They can dramatically transform your smile into something you’re proud to show off. 

Am I a candidate for Lumineers?

Your dentist reviews your dental history, goals, lifestyle, and treatment preferences to determine if Lumineers are right for you. They also examine your teeth and gums and may take dental X-rays. Lumineers correct minor tooth flaws easily and quickly. 

But depending on your tooth imperfections, your dentist may recommend dental veneers or other restorative or cosmetic dental procedures available at Greenhill Family Dental Care. Examples include crowns, teeth whitening, Invisalign®, and bonding. 

What happens when receiving Lumineers?

You may require two dental appointments to receive Lumineers. Your dentist first takes an impression or mold of your teeth and sends the information to a dental lab. When the Lumineers are ready, your provider bonds them to the surfaces of your teeth to create a flawless look. After placement on your teeth, Lumineers could last 10-20 years when cared for properly.

How can I take good care of my Lumineers?

It’s helpful to take good care of Lumineers to avoid damage. Keep your teeth clean by brushing after meals and flossing daily. Don’t chew on hard objects like ice, popcorn kernels, or hard candy, and avoid opening packages with your teeth. 

See the Greenhill Family Dental Care experts at least every six months for a dental cleaning and exam. Call the office if your Lumineers become damaged or if you experience tooth pain.
