Lumineers® and Veneers Correct a Number of Smile Imperfections

• Spacing or gaps between teeth
• Slight crowding of front teeth
• Broken or chipped teeth
• Worn or uneven edges
• Stained teeth
• Misshapen or short teeth

Are Lumineers® the Same as Veneers?

Lumineers® and porcelain veneers are ultra-cosmetic restorations that erase flaws in the smile. These two treatment options share several similarities, including:

• Shell-like, thin restorations covering the outward-facing surfaces of teeth are visible when you smile.
• Custom-crafted to fit your unique smile
• Adhere permanently to the teeth
• Create an even, white, natural-looking smile

Treatment Planning for Your Best Smile

Depending on your unique needs and cosmetic goals, you may be a candidate for either Lumineers® or veneers, which differ in the following ways:

• Lumineers® can be placed with little to no tooth preparation, while veneers require irreversible removal of tooth structure for an even fit.
• Porcelain veneers may be preferred if your teeth require adjustments prior to placing cosmetic restorations.
• Lumineers® are often placed without the need for anesthetic.
• Lumineers® are thinner than veneers and more translucent. Porcelain veneers may be a better option if hiding tooth stains is a concern.
• Lumineers® typically have a lifespan of 20 years, compared with 10 years for porcelain veneers.

Snap-On Smile® for an Instant Transformation Look

Another popular cosmetic option is Snap-On-Smile®, a custom-made appliance designed to snap right over your upper or lower arch of teeth. With this removable option for upgrading your smile, you can hide oral concerns like broken, worn, discolored, or missing teeth, without undergoing any dental treatment.
