I need Lumineers

[John A]

Hi

I need lumineers to fix my very discoloured and stained teeth. I try not to smile as much as possible to hide my teeth. I think I would have much more confidence to smile, if I had Lumineers on my teeth.

I would like to know how many Lumineers I would need to give me the best smile. When I smile you can see most of top teeth apart from my very back teeth. I dont show many of my bottom teeth when I smile. So I know I need Lumineers but I would like to know how many I would need for a perfect smile.

Hi,

Thank you for your question,

Lumineers were devleoped by an american company to give what is known as Hollywood smile. usually when someone with your discription, where mostly top teeth are shown when smile, we ae usually taking about 10 luminers on top front teeth.

As your lower teeth are not visible, they are not usually treated and mostly the top front teeth are lumineered. So it appears as in many other patients, lumineers will be the choice of treatment. However the final decision has to made at the time of consultation and assessment of your teeth to ensure that your are the right person for treatment by lumineers.
