Dental Solutions
“I love my teeth and my smile. The work was done very softly and pleasant, and Dr. Gross and his team really cared and even worked on “odd” hours as I was a bit pushed for time leaving USA for Europe. Thank you Dr. Gross – Thank you Renee and the rest of the team – You are great!”

Lumineers
Fort Lauderdale, Florida
Who doesn’t want a whiter, brighter smile? While over-the-counter whitening products help to bleach away the years, the results are only temporary. For a better solution, consider Lumineers.
What are Lumineers?
- Lumineers are a contact-thin porcelain veneer applied to the tooth’s surface.
- Lumineers require no cosmetic restricting of the teeth before application.
- Lumineers application is painless. Gums are not sore and there is no bleeding.
- Lumineers make teeth appear straighter and whiter without braces or dental surgery.
- Lumineers cover chipped teeth.
- Lumineers last up to 20 years and are completely reversible if desired.
Little or no tooth preparation required
For traditional porcelain veneers, the tooth must be shaved down to make room for the veneer. But with Lumineers, that is not necessary because Lumineers are extra thin. They are often compared to contact lenses in their delicate thinness.
Thinness does not mean weakness, however. Although all porcelain, by itself, is brittle, it is strong after it has been bonded to the tooth. Tooth and veneer become one entity, with the veneer providing a new glossy surface, and the tooth supporting the veneer. Lumineers are no exception to this and will give you many years of smile brightness. Your Lumineers will not become stained, and with good dental care such as you give your natural teeth, they will keep their pearly-white sheen as good as new for many years.
Advantages of Lumineers
- They are contact lens thin, roughly .2mm thick
- Little or no tooth reduction is necessary in most cases
- Anesthetics and numbing shots are not necessary
- Do not need to wear temporary veneers until Lumineers are created
- Last just as long as porcelain veneers
- Are reversible if no tooth reduction was necessary when they were first placed
- Cost less than porcelain veneers
