Application Process
- Initial Visit: Bite impressions and X-rays are taken to assess tooth alignment. Teeth are examined to ensure they are healthy. The patient and dentist select the desired shade and transparency of the LUMINEERS®, which are then custom-made in a laboratory.
- Second Visit: LUMINEERS® are bonded to the teeth. Excess bonding material is removed and the veneers are polished for a smooth, bacteria-resistant surface. The final result is a perfectly natural, bright smile.
LUMINEERS® provide a minimally invasive, reversible, and long-lasting solution for enhancing your smile. For more information or to schedule a consultation, please contact our practice.
