Lumineers

San Francisco

If you’re looking to invest in your smile, it’s important to pursue the best options available. At Uno Dental, we’re proud to offer the industry-leading cosmetic treatments you need to love your smile again.

Veneers have always been the go-to option for transforming your smile for a bright, uniform look. Although there are plenty of benefits to the different types of veneers, the process of removing your enamel for placement means veneers may not be for everyone. What’s more, veneers are only a cosmetic procedure, meaning you’ll need to undergo restorative or orthodontic treatments first if you want a fully transformed smile. Lumineers are one new treatment option that can comfortably and safely achieve your cosmetic goals using the newest and best dental methods available.

Lumineers are ultra-thin veneers that are highly translucent and look just like natural enamel. Because they’re so thin, there’s no need to remove enamel from your underlying teeth for placement. Once in place, they’re function just like your natural teeth but create a healthy, radiant smile for your best moments. During your consultation with our cosmetic team, we can create a customized treatment plan with our expertise for the best smile makeover in San Francisco.

Why Choose Lumineers at Uno Dental San Francisco?

Lumineers come with a lot of benefits over traditional veneers. These include:

  • Little to no enamel removal
  • Durability for 20 years or more
  • Pain-free placement process
  • Additional correction of misalignment and staining
  • Reversible results

Lumineers are a new generation of cosmetic dental treatments and can transform your smile with proprietary technology as thin as a contact lens. With the newest technology available on the market, our team can help you achieve your ideal smile with quality, customized care at our luxurious practice. You can feel confident in your smile and your dental care with our comfortable, relaxed, and professional approach. At Uno Dental, we’re proud to be a leading provider of Lumineers in the San Francisco area with the expertise, knowledge, and artistic eye to help you reveal the right smile for you.

What Can I Expect During Lumineer Treatment?

Your customized Lumineer treatment can be performed over the course of two appointments. During the first appointment, our cosmetic team will create a mold or scan of your teeth so your Lumineers can be fabricated. You’ll work with Dr. Kandar to determine the right shade, size, and overall look of your new smile. Then, you’ll return later to have your Lumineers checked for fit and overall look. They’ll then be placed in our relaxing and luxurious office without the need for anesthetic or drilling.

How Can I Get the Best Results from My Lumineers Treatment?

To get the most out of your Lumineers, it’s important to take care of them just like your natural teeth. This means brushing twice per day and flossing once at night. You should also avoid sugary foods and beverages, and see Dr. Kandar regularly for professional cleanings. With the right care, your new smile can last for 20 years or more. As always, our cosmetic team is here to help you love your smile and enjoy quality, customized care at our state-of-the-art San Francisco practice.

Lumineers FAQs

Are Lumineers permanent?

Lumineers can last for over 20 years and are made from resistant porcelain. This means most patients get long-term results from their treatment.

Can Lumineers get stained?

Lumineers are made from ultra-thin porcelain that is very durable and non-porous. This means they’re very resistant to staining from beverages like coffee or red wine.

Can Lumineers be placed over crowns?

Both veneers and Lumineers can be placed over porcelain crowns for a completer and more consistent smile makeover.

What is a dental Lumineer?

A dental Lumineer is a thin, translucent version of a veneer that requires no shaving down of teeth to apply. They are used to correct dim or discolored teeth as well as misshapen teeth to provide patients with a beautiful smile.

Do Lumineers damage your teeth?

Unlike traditional veneers, which require teeth to be shaven down in order to fit correctly, Lumineers are applied directly to the teeth, resulting in long-lasting benefits that can be reversed.

Do Lumineers fall off?

Lumineers are affixed to the teeth with dental bonding, which means they wont fall off. They can, however, be removed if desired.

Are Lumineers cheaper than veneers?

Lumineers are only slightly cheaper per tooth than traditional veneers.
