You see their ads with the gorgeous smiles. What would it be like to have a perfect smile….? Maybe it’s not just a dream and you can flash a smile that melts hearts. All you’d have to do is get Lumineers, right? Hold on…don’t sign up yet. There are some things you should know ahead of time.

Lumineers are a Brand, not a Product

While they are a heavily marketed brand of porcelain veneers, they are most certainly not the only brand, even though they have the biggest name recognition. Sometimes, you’d get better results from another brand. Just like one cut of a dress works well for some body types and not others. Certain brands of veneers fit certain smile designs better.

With Lumineers, You Limit Your Options

This particular brand is made by the DenMat Company. They insist every dentist use their particular lab. The two things which most affect the outcome of your smile makeover are the dentist and the lab. Unfortunately, the DenMat lab is not known for the best results.

True cosmetic dentists, who care about the beauty of their results prefer to choose their own lab. If you get Lumineers, that’s not an option.

For the Best Results, Choose Your Dentist Carefully

The first thing you want to do is look at their smile gallery. Make sure they’re showing images of cases they’ve actually completed and not just stock photos. If it’s their work, it should show you what type of results they get. If you like what you see, the next thing to see is if they have a beautiful smile guarantee. If they don’t, walk away. It means they don’t stand behind their results. If they do, then it’s time for a consultation.
