Everybody wants to have the perfect smile but the fear of dentists and cosmetic procedures often plays spoilsport. Just the mention of the word dentist evokes feelings of pain in many people's heads.
Under such circumstances, the prospect of cosmetic surgery to improve your smile is rather bleak. People find it hard to strictly follow daily maintenance steps. Cosmetic dentistry procedures require a lot of care and upkeep even after the surgery has been successfully completed. Probably this is why people shirk away from applying veneers to enhance their smiles.
Drilling and grinding of the dental structure is performed to apply veneers. The patient often needs to be anaesthetised for the procedures, and also needs pain killers after it. As the dental structure is disturbed, the procedure is irreversible.
An alternate procedure has been developed by Cerinate off late, called the Lumineers. It straightens the tooth structure and also whitens the teeth instantly and permanently. Lumineers are slim but resilient and can safely be used over crowns and bridges. They are made using patented Cerinate porcelain from the Den-Mat Corp. No anaesthetics or pain killers are required.
Another huge advantage of this particular technique is that it is non invasive. No grinding or grilling is done and hence the tooth structure remains the same. The procedure has been praised by several dentists.
Crystal Conduit, a dentist from Raleigh said, "I am very happy with the results of the procedure. It is painless and takes less than two hours. My patients were thrilled."
Lumineers recently was included in a list of Top 10 Dentistry Products by Dental Products Report.
