What Are Lumineers?
Lumineers are ultra-thin, custom-made dental veneers crafted from patented Cerinate® porcelain. At only 0.2–0.3 mm thick—similar to a contact lens—they are applied to the front surface of teeth with little to no enamel removal. This makes them a minimally invasive option for patients who want a smile makeover that enhances appearance while protecting long-term dental health.
Lumineers can resolve:
- Discolored teeth resistant to whitening
- Chipped teeth or small cracks
- Crooked teeth with minor misalignment
- Noticeable gaps between teeth
- Worn or uneven tooth shape
Why Choose Lumineers Over Traditional Veneers?
Some patients prefer Lumineers over traditional veneers because they’re:
- Minimally Invasive: Often no drilling, shots, or anesthesia needed.
- Preserves Natural Teeth: No significant enamel removal.
- Reversible: Can be removed if you decide to return to your natural smile.
- Quick Process: Usually complete in two visits.
- Natural Appearance: Translucent porcelain mimics real enamel for a seamless, stunning smile.
Whether you want to improve minor imperfections or achieve a total smile makeover, Lumineers may be the perfect solution. Are you ready to get started? Contact our cosmetic dentist in Chicago at (312) 212-3304 to schedule your appointment.
The Lumineers Process
First Visit – Consultation & Custom Smile Design
During your consultation, your Chicago cosmetic dentist will:
- Review your dental health and confirm candidacy.
- Discuss your smile goals and expectations.
- Take digital impressions to begin your custom smile design.
Second Visit – Final Veneers Placement
- Teeth are gently prepared and cleaned.
- Lumineers are bonded securely to the front surface of your teeth.
- Minor adjustments are made for comfort and appearance.
The process usually takes just one to two hours, with no downtime—allowing you to walk out with a brighter, more beautiful smile the same day.
Who Is a Candidate for Lumineers?
Lumineers may be right for you if you:
- Have chipped, stained, or misaligned teeth
- Want to close gaps without braces
- Have healthy gums and overall good oral health
- Desire a perfect smile without invasive treatment
You may not be a candidate if you have severe tooth decay, gum disease, or significant misalignment. Our dentist will review your case and discuss tailored solutions.
How Much Do Lumineers Cost in Chicago?
On average, the cost of Lumineers in Chicago ranges from $800 to $2,000 per tooth. Pricing depends on:
- The number of teeth treated
- Case complexity
- Additional procedures (if needed)
- The dentist’s experience and location
Because Lumineers use advanced materials and technology, they may cost more than traditional porcelain veneers.
Insurance and Payment Options
Most dental insurance plans do not cover Lumineers since they are considered cosmetic dentistry. However, some plans may help if treatment improves function. Our office can review your benefits and discuss payment plans to make your dream smile accessible.
