My teeth are almost see through thin would lumineers are right for me?

Q. Hello, I am a 25 year female. When I was 22, I had the zoom whitening procedure done on my teeth, followed by at home bleaching trays which left my teeth whiter, but almost see through thin. I have stopped using the trays because I honestly feel like my teeth will fall out if I bleach them any more! I would really like to look into lumineers to help brighten and change my smile (I have never really liked the shape of my teeth). However, I have a couple of concerns. One of my eye teeth is really crocked and I am not sure if a lumineer can still be placed over it. Also, I have heard that you have to be very careful about what you eat because they chip very easy. What more can you tell me to help me decide of lumineers are right for me?

A. Lumineers are just a brand of veneers.  They profess to be none prep veneers but the cases I have seen that have been done in this way have not been up to the  standard of “normal” veneers.  If a tooth slopes into the mouth can have a no prep veneer to produce a great result – it all depends on the tooth position of your teeth you want veneered.

Hi many thanks for your email, the cost per tooth for lumineers is around £695 in my practice however i am unsure about the cost of such treatments in the UK in general.

I am very interested in having Lumineers, I would love a consultation to see what can be done. I had braces for near on 3 years, largely due to my teeth being spaced. 5/6 years on, my teeth are still fairly straight but spaces have reappeared due to my teeth being small in comparison to my mouth. Iwould like lumineers to close up the gaps and to build on some of my smaller teeth to my upper jaw. Look forward to hearing from you. Kindest Regards.
