Lumineers

New LUMINEERS technology makes painful veneers unnecessary.

LUMINEERS^® BY CERINATE^® is painless because they don’t require painful removal of sensitive tooth structure. Dr. Samuels applies these contact lens-thin “smile shapers” to teeth without any grinding or shaving, transforming misshapen, worn teeth into a naturally beautiful smile that looks perfect for every individual. LUMINEERS can even be placed on porcelain bridgework and crowns with the new Revitalize™ Kit available to Dr. Samuels. LUMINEERS BY CERINATE is the best of both worlds—ultra-thin, yet super strong for a radiant smile that resists any cracking, which can damage restorations. LUMINEERS are completely reversible. Get your perfect smile today!

LUMINEERS BY CERINATE Technique	TRADITIONAL VENEERS Technique

BEFORE	BEFORE
Teeth are stained, slightly misshapen with spaces in between. The dentist makes an impression and the mold is sent to the Cerinate Smile Design Studio where only LUMINEERS are crafted.	Teeth appear stained and slightly misshapen. An impression is made and sent to a lab.


LUMINEERS VENEERS—NO PAINFUL TEETH PREPARATION	TRADITIONAL VENEERS—PAINFUL TEETH PREPARATION
On next dental visit, your dentist tries in your LUMINEERS to ensure a good fit. Teeth are moderately etched to prepare for placement but there is no removal of sensitive tooth structure, the painful part of traditional veneer techniques. The LUMINEERS are bonded to your natural teeth and set in place with a dental adhesive activated by a curing light.	Anesthetic shots are given to numb the area and teeth are severely shaved away with a drill to accommodate the veneers.


PAINFREE AFTER	POTENTIALLY PAINFUL AFTER
In only 2 easy dental visits, you will have a permanently whiter and beautiful smile without shots, drills or pain.	A better, but still flawed smile, as the procedure is not reversible like LUMINEERS because the original teeth have been shaved down causing pain and discomfort immediately after the procedure.
