I have been recommended Lumineers for my small teeth but can they make the Lumineers bigger than my teeth?

Q. my teeth are small and I have small gaps, my local dentist said lumineers would be great but my question is can they make them bigger than my teeth because the issue is the size. My teeth are in good condition other than that. They said 8 on top and I just wondered why not the bottom..cost approx. $8,500,
A. If your teeth are already small, than lumineers would work really well and it would make your teeth look slightly bigger without damaging to much tooth structure. It’s up to you and what you can afford.

I am currently researching Lumineers and UK providers and am wondering why there is such a difference in cost quoted on general search sites?,

It’s depends on the dentist and experiance and also the standards / materials of the lumineers

What if you have a big gap in the front teeth can you still get Lumineers or do you have to get braces?,

A big gap can be treated in a number of ways – often a combination of braces and veneers

One of my front teeth is overlapping the other one also they seem to be longer than the others around them which is very embarrassing and makes me notwant to smile. What could I do to fix this and how much will it cost?

Hi, I have read the page on this website on lumineers, I feel they might be better for me then normal veneers as I don’t like the idea of part of my tooth being shaved off for this process. My query is, on the web page it states that the cost is £500-£800 for the lumineer, is that for the whole treatment or does it mean per tooth? Also, is it an actual fact that lumineers will last for 20 years rather then the maximum of 10 years for veneers? Thank you for your time

Firstly, you need to be assessed for lumineers as a very small percentage of te poulation qualify for lumineers/no prep veneers. The cost is per veneer. All veneers need to be replaced between 10- 15 years. Regards,
