Prescott Lumineers
Prescott Dental Arts offers Lumineers for Prescott, Arizona
When a person wants to change the look of their smile they may think it will be too time-consuming. They may believe the only way to get the results they want is through crowns or braces. However, there is a way to improve a smile in a shorter amount of time with the use of Lumineers. Porcelain lumineers are ultra-thin pieces of porcelain that are bonded or cemented to the fronts of teeth. Lumineers are extremely popular because they are thin and translucent making them very natural-looking.
Before Lumineers, traditional veneers were thick and required tooth enamel to be reshaped and removed in order for the veneer to fit. If not enough enamel was removed, the veneers had the potential to look big and bulky. With the use of Lumineers, little to no tooth enamel has to be removed. Because Lumineers are so thin they appear more natural-looking and not bulky.
Even though Lumineers are very thin this doesn’t affect their durability. Lumineers are very strong and if taken care of they can last long. Also because Lumineers require little to no enamel removal, no anesthesia or drilling is necessary and the procedure can be completed in two appointments. At Prescott Dental Arts we provide Lumineers for our patients. If a person decides to have Lumineers done, two appointments will be made for them at our Prescott Arizona office.
For the first appointment, impressions will be taken of the teeth and sent to the lab for fabrication of the Lumineers. At the second appointment our dentist Dr. Herbert will check the shape, color, and fit of the Lumineers. If everything looks and fits satisfactory the Lumineers will be bonded or cemented to the teeth and the patient will leave the office with a new beautiful smile.
Are Lumineers a substitute for Orthodontics?
Lumineers are a great substitute to orthodontics. If a person is simply wanting to fix the crooked look to their smile, Lumineers are a great alternative to years in braces. However, each person’s unique case will need to be examined by Dr. Herbert to decide if Lumineers will help their situation. At Prescott Dental Arts we offer a consultation for anyone who is interested in changing their smile with Lumineers. If a person does not have severe alignment problems, Lumineers are a great way to improve their smile without orthodontics.
Is Lumineers Long Lasting?
Lumineers have been shown to be very durable and long-lasting. In some cases, Lumineers have been shown to last as long as 20 years. Just like natural teeth a person must properly care for their Lumineers with daily brushing and flossing. Keeping them clean will help avoid decay occurring to the tooth structure underneath. Proper care of the Lumineers will help ensure they stay strong and beautiful.
