The Lumineers Procedure

Our dentist in New York, NY, will take impressions of your teeth during the first appointment. These impressions are crucial for crafting custom Lumineers that fit perfectly over your natural teeth.

One of the standout features of the Lumineers procedure is its minimally invasive nature. Unlike traditional veneers, Lumineers often require little or no tooth reduction before placement. This means that the structure of your natural teeth remains largely intact, making the procedure more comfortable and preserving your dental health.

Once your custom Lumineers are ready, you'll return to our dental office for the fitting and bonding process. During this appointment, the dentist will carefully place each Lumineer on your teeth to ensure a precise fit. They will make any necessary adjustments to achieve the desired appearance and alignment.

To secure the Lumineers, the dentist will use a special adhesive that bonds the veneers to your teeth. A curing light is often used to harden the adhesive quickly. This step ensures that your Lumineers are securely and comfortably affixed to your teeth. Once the Lumineers are bonded, the dentist will make final adjustments to ensure that your bite is aligned correctly, and the veneers feel comfortable in your mouth.
