3 Surprising Uses for LUMINEERS

Cherrywood Dental • Dec 11, 2013
Thin LUMINEERS are the perfect tools for repairing flaws. They’re often used for individual teeth, to cover chips, cracks, stains, and other imperfections. But LUMINEERS’ uniquely thin structure and natural appearance make them suited for other tasks as well – both aesthetic and functional. Your porcelain veneers could do much more for you than you anticipate. Read on to discover a few remarkable applications for these ultra-thin, exceptionally beautiful dental restorations.

Things LUMINEERS Could Do For You

  1. Lip enhancement – As time passes, your lips lose some of their volume. The natural, hydrating substances (like collagen) that are present in your youth begin to dissipate. This can cause your lips to look less than robust. Porcelain veneers add a thin layer of material to your front teeth. This will push your lips slightly outward, leading to gentle but effective lip enhancement. There’s no dealing with repeat treatments of dermal fillers or other lip volumizers; simply slightly plumper lips surrounding your gorgeous smile.
  2. Reducing tooth sensitivity – Worn teeth aren’t just visually unappealing, they’re uncomfortable. Hot and cold weather, beverages, and foods can cause you to twinge throughout the day, and dental treatment becomes a trial. Your teeth may even be more susceptible to decay. Applying veneers to your worn teeth will create entirely new layers that act as enamel supplements. The LUMINEERS will reduce your sensitivity and protect the natural teeth within.
  3. Full smile makeover – While single veneers correct individual problems, sometimes patients are seeking something more. Sets of veneers for your upper and lower teeth will transform your smile, making it into whatever you’d like it to be. Whether you’re hoping for straighter teeth, a more symmetrical smile, or a brighter grin, full sets of LUMINEERS will make anything possible.
