Our Los Angeles cosmetic dentist may recommend Lumineers if you have minor cosmetic flaws, such as stains, chips, worn enamel, small teeth or gaps. Lumineers cover the fronts of teeth with a thin layer of translucent porcelain. They can be placed with little to no preparation, meaning that teeth will not need to be cut down or drilled in preparation before placement. Understanding the pros and cons can help you decide if Lumineers are right for you.
Pros
• Lumineers can last 10 to 20 years or more.
• They can be made to look identical to natural enamel, so no one will ever know you are wearing them.
• You can enjoy your new smile right away.
• The procedure is less invasive than conventional veneers.
• They are painless, and there is no need for anesthesia.
• The procedure is entirely reversible if desired.
Cons
• Lumineers might not be right for every patient.
• They can make teeth look larger in some cases.
• They may not be appropriate in patients who grind their teeth.
• Lumineers cannot necessarily correct big problems without some preparation, such as misalignments.
