Which last longer veneers or lumineers

Pain-free treatment no drilling or injections

Veneers are usually not painful whilst you are having the treatment.

However, some have reported slight sensitivity during the settling down period after the final fitting. This is quite normal and nothing to worry about. It usually only lasts for a few days and very soon after subsidies. More.

The sensitivity is due to the bonding process where an inorganic substance (the veneer) has been bonded to an organic component (your tooth).

In complex cases, involving a large amount of treatment, you may experience a little uncomfortableness while your teeth settle down.

Fast, simple, pain-free process

• At your first appointment, your dentist will take a look at the general health of your teeth and gums, your bite and understand your goals for your smile; and then see if any fundamental issues need addressing before cosmetic veneer work can begin.
• We will also discuss the type of veneers that may be suitable and also the how-many-veneers that should be considered in achieving your desired smile. On some patients, it may be possible to get some veneers placed at an initial phase and then to have the possibility of additional veneers in the future.

Tooth Preparation

• We will always plan your new smile before any treatment is carried out. We aim to provide you with the most conservative and preservative dentistry.
• In order, to prevent excessive tooth preparation, we design your new smile in a way that minimises tooth preparation. We also provide options whereby you can have orthodontic or teeth straightening treatment carried out before any cosmetic veneer work is done.
• This way your teeth are already well aligned and so very minimal or hardly any tooth preparation become necessary.
• If you are concerned in any way we advise that you speak to us in your complimentary consultation. We will be able to provide you with suitable solutions. More.

Simple, transparent pricing

A few factors will affect the total cost of your cosmetic veneers:

• The type of material used – Porcelain (Ultrathin or Lumineers ) are more expensive than composite resin veneers.
• The number of veneers being applied – veneers are priced per tooth and so the more you have, the higher the cost.
• Your dental health – if you require treatment for other dental issues such as tooth decay or gum disease before veneers can be fitted then this will be included in the total cost of your dentistry work. More.
