Your Gateway to a Flawless Smile

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of your teeth, instantly enhancing your smile's appearance. They are an ideal solution for addressing a variety of dental imperfections, including staining, chips, gaps, or misshapen teeth.

Porcelain Veneers: The Classic Choice

Porcelain veneers are renowned for their durability and natural appearance. They reflect light similarly to natural teeth, offering a high level of customization in shape, color, and size. Porcelain veneers are a long-lasting solution to dramatically improve your smile.

Lumineers: The Minimally Invasive Alternative

Lumineers are a type of ultra-thin veneer that requires minimal tooth preparation, preserving more of your natural tooth structure. They are an excellent option for patients seeking a less invasive approach to cosmetic enhancement.

EMAX Veneers: Strength Meets Aesthetics

EMAX veneers are crafted from high-strength ceramic, known for its durability and translucent appearance. These veneers are an excellent choice for achieving a beautiful, natural-looking smile with a material that is resistant to fractures and wear.

Porcelain Veneers vs. Lumineers: Understanding the Difference

Preparation

Porcelain veneers typically require more tooth preparation, including the removal of a small amount of tooth enamel. Lumineers are thinner and often require little to no tooth reduction.

Thickness

Lumineers are known for their ultra-thin design, making them less invasive than traditional porcelain veneers.

Appearance

Both options offer a natural and aesthetically pleasing look, but the thicker porcelain veneers can provide more dramatic changes in tooth shape and color.

Durability

Porcelain veneers are generally more durable than Lumineers due to their thickness and the way they bond with the tooth.
