Both Porcelain Veneers and Lumineers are essentially thin shells of ceramic that bond directly to the front surfaces of your teeth. They are not only cosmetically beautiful, but in some cases can actually eliminate the need for a dental crown. But there are differences, especially in terms of installation, because different patients have different issues going on in their mouth. That’s what makes it so important to see a talented and skilled cosmetic dentist like Dr. Hooper. Even though we’re one of the few Preferred Lumineer Dentists in Edmond, we know they are only sometimes the best solution. We’ll work with you to design the most brilliant smile at the most affordable costs. And with our Enhanced Smile Camera, we can show you the results before we even start!
The advantage of porcelain veneers.
Veneers are the right choice for a person whose teeth may be unstable or very crooked. The placement of dental veneers requires the “shaping” or “prepping” of all teeth being fitted with the custom-designed shells. The result of course are stunningly beautiful teeth that will last a lifetime.
Lumineers are new no-prep veneers. They could be the right choice for you if your teeth don’t need a lot of work to prepare. Lumineers don’t require shots or drilling on sensitive tooth structure. That means no pain! Instead they’re applied seamlessly over existing teeth. Even so, they can dramatically change a person’s appearance. In many cases they are an ideal choice for improving your smile and have become increasingly popular due to their simplicity and versatility. In many cases, Lumineers can be a better choice than braces.
