Lumineers by Cerinate have revolutionized cosmetic dentistry. A painless way to reshape and permanently whiten your smile. Developed recently in The States, The River Dental and Cosmetic Clinic is one of a few dental practices outside London able to offer this very special technique.

Dr Richard Budworth discusses Lumineers [56 secs]

Lumineers by Cerinate are different from traditional veneers. They are unique in that they are made of porcelain but are contact lens-thin (approximately.2mm) and super translucent. Since Lumineers are so thin, little to no tooth reduction is necessary. In addition, Lumineers resist micro-leakage and micro-cracking.

Unlike veneers, Lumineer procedures do not require tooth structure removal – there is no grinding, cutting or filing of teeth. No anaesthetic is needed, no uncomfortable temporaries are required and the whole procedure is pleasant and painless. Your teeth will feel comfortable and look natural from the start.

Before and after Lumineers

Teeth can be permanently whitened, uneven spacing can be corrected, short teeth lengthened and awkward teeth reshapened. They can also be bonded to existing crowns and bridgework without having to have them replaced.

Although Lumineers are completely reversible, they have unparalleled longevity and clinical testing has proved that the procedure lasts and looks great for up to 20 years. There is a 5-year warranty and Lumineers are replaced at no charge as long as regular check-ups and cleaning take place. There are no limitations to what you can eat or drink as Lumineers are placed over original teeth in the most durable way possible.
