Dr. Patel on Lumineers®

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 erasing flaws in the smile. These two treatment options share several similarities, including:

Shell-like, thin restorations covering the outward facing surfaces of teeth 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 stain 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.

Your smile and the self-esteem it creates are important to who you are as a person. If you are not beaming with confidence, call our office today and learn how Dr. Patel and our team can help you attain your very best smile.

Gabrielle's Thoughts on Dr. Patel's Practice

I've been coming to see Dr. Patel for a little over 2 and a half years. Myself and my entire family come to Dr. Patel's office. I had originally come in because my dentist was not available and I had an emergency. From the moment you walk in, there's a really good feeling of positive energy. Everyone's super friendly from the time you walk in, get checked in — from the time they bring you back and get you prepared for the dentist, to getting checked out.
