Lumineers
Lumineers are contact-lens thin, porcelain veneers that require no tooth reduction, unlike traditional porcelain veneers. Lumineers can be used as ‘smile shapers’ to transform chipped, discoloured and malaligned teeth. Lumineers can also be bonded to existing crown and bridge work. Every patient is assessed to ensure suitability and to design the individual smile he or she wishes to achieve.
