Q. I am interested in Lumineers however my Dentist does not provide this service and says she wouldn’t touch them as they cause all sorts of problems including inflamed gums. This confuses me as the Lumineers website says they can last for over 20 years (do they?) Please advise Thanks

A. Hi,Lumineers are a great way of improving your overall smile- especially ifyou dislike the shae of your eeth. You need to unerstands that a degree of reparation is always needed to fit the veneers onto your teeth. Inflamed gums can happen if theveneers ae nt cemenetd properley- and the excess cemenet has no been removed fully. It can also happen if the veneers are made to a poor standard. For this reason alone, I would highly recommend that you see a cosmetic dentist- someone who has experience and someone who fully understands aesthetics of a smile. If you dislike your teeth, you have the opportunity to resolve your issues. Hope this has helped and good luck.
