If you have chipped, discolored, or moderately crooked teeth, you may have thought about seeking dental treatment to improve your smile. Fortunately, LUMINEERS are a long-lasting, reversible treatment that is now available and might be the perfect solution for your needs. Dr. Christopher Lim and his team at Hillside Dental in Las Vegas have expertise in applying LUMINEERS for the perfect smile.
LUMINEERS are a type of dental veneer, a thin piece of material that is shaped and placed over your existing tooth to create a natural, aligned, white smile. Veneers have a similar strength to your natural tooth enamel and can be a less intrusive alternative to braces or other orthodontic appliances for cosmetic dental issues. LUMINEERS are specifically designed to be ultra thin—about as thin as a contact lens—and are painless to apply.
In contrast to traditional veneers, which are a permanent cosmetic solution, LUMINEERS are considered temporary and reversible should you change your mind at a later date. However, LUMINEERS are designed to be durable and can last up to 20 years, ensuring that you are making a good investment.
Home care for LUMINEERS is the same as the care needed for your regular teeth. Regular daily brushing and flossing will help your LUMINEERS last as long as possible.
LUMINEERS can be used to correct a variety of cosmetic dental issues, including the following:
Align moderately crooked teeth: Instead of using braces that are painful, affect your smile and what you can eat, and require a long treatment time, LUMINEERS are a fast, pain-free alternative to align crooked teeth.
Refresh old dental crowns and bridges: Old crowns and bridges may deteriorate and look bad over time. LUMINEERS can be put on top of aging dental work to refresh your smile.
Remove gaps: LUMINEERS can help remove gaps between your front teeth or other spaces between your teeth without the need to reshape your original teeth or use orthodontic treatment.
Correct chipped teeth or reshape teeth: If you have a chip in your tooth or misshapen teeth, LUMINEERS can restore them to their natural shape instantly.
Brighten your smile: Unlike your natural teeth, LUMINEERS are stain resistant and do not easily turn yellow or become stained by beverages such as red wine or coffee. You can achieve a long-lasting, natural-looking bright smile with LUMINEERS.
