• Dental veneers can be made from porcelain or resin composite materials. Porcelain
veneers resist stains better than resin veneers and better mimic the light reflecting
properties of natural teeth. Resin veneers are thinner and require removal of less of
the tooth surface before placement.
• The latest evolution in dental veneers are lumineers. Lumineers have taken
cosmetic dentistry to the next level – the procedure is reversible and there is no
need to grind the teeth.This is because lumineers are about as thin as contact
lenses or roughly half the thickness of veneers. Although they are thin, lumineers
are incredibly strong and have been proven to last for over 20 years.
• Lumineers offer a quick and painless way to permanently enhance your smile. In
just two-visits you can have a whiter, healthier, natural-looking smile.
