Lumineers London

State-of-the-art veneers create beautiful and natural-looking smiles in as little as two appointments.

Dental Lumineers at The London Centre for Cosmetic Dentistry

Lumineers® are a revolutionary type of veneer that not only creates a beautiful smile but due to their state-of-the-art technology, little to no preparation is needed to the surface of the tooth. This is due to them being ultra-thin, (approximately 0.2 mm) custom-made, translucent shells, meaning they match the appearance of natural teeth, giving you a fabulously genuine and stunning smile.

Dental Lumineers® are a great solution for a range of dental issues such as stained, chipped, eroded, and misaligned teeth, but they can be used to revitalise an old crown or bridgework; and having them fitted is very simple because little or none of the tooth structure has to be altered or removed. Allowing you to retain your natural teeth as close as possible.

Dental Lumineers Treatment Process

Choosing Lumineers® in London will typically involve patients attending around two visits, which is a quicker and easier result for you than porcelain veneers. Lumineers® remove the need for anaesthetic or drilling to change the shape and appearance of your natural teeth, making appointment time stress-free and comfortable.

Appointment one

On the first visit, you and the dentist will work together to decide on the colour of your Dental Lumineers® and an impression will be taken of your teeth. This will assist the highly skilled laboratory technicians to handcraft your Lumineers® with precision, ensuring they match your real teeth and suit you perfectly. This also ensures that your Lumineers® are a flawless fit.

At this stage, we also create exceptional-looking temporary veneers, which give you a fantastic visualisation and preview of the final look of your new smile.

Appointment two

Once the Lumineers® have been made in the lab, your new Dental Lumineers® are checked for fit and shade, and then painlessly attached.

The natural teeth will be slightly etched to help the Lumineers® adhere, and once fitted, will be set in place using a curing light. This procedure is entirely painless, does not damage the natural teeth, and should be completed in around an hour.

In just two appointments the procedure is complete, and you will walk away with your dream smile.

Veneer Treatment Options at LCCD

Porcelain Veneers

Hand-crafted by our carefully selected dental laboratories, ultra-thin porcelain veneers offer a natural look to improve the overall appearance of your teeth. Porcelain veneers are a cosmetic solution to worn or chipped teeth and discoloured smiles and are also suitable for realigning crooked teeth and smiles.

Lumineers™

Ultra-thin (approx. 0.2 mm) custom-made shells that are translucent, making them look very close to the appearance of natural tooth enamel. Lumineers require minimal preparation, don’t damage the natural teeth, and if dentally suitable, the process can be completed in as little as two visits.

Zeneers™

The leading brand of zirconia veneers. Zirconia is porcelain that contains around 90% zirconium oxide forming one of the strongest and most durable veneers on the market. The semi-translucent appearance means that they are virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth and are available as full or partial crowns.

Emax Veneers

Emax veneers are known for their natural-looking appearance. The material closely mimics the translucency & texture of natural teeth, providing a seamless integration with your smile. They are highly durable and require little drilling allowing your natural teeth structure to remain strong.

Dental Lumineers London FAQs

It does depend on the current state of your teeth, not everyone’s teeth are suitable for Lumineers. However this can only be answered by our dentists after they have seen you for a full consultation. Lumineers are ultra-thin veneers which require minimal preparation to the natural tooth, therefore if you have a lot of discolouration, substantial chips or cracks then it might not be the veneer treatment for you. Still, we have plenty of other cosmetic treatment options which the dentist can discuss with you during your visit.

The cost of Lumineers® is dependent on the current state of your oral health and if any further dental work is necessary for a healthy and beautiful smile. If you’re considering Lumineers, we offer consultations with our cosmetic dentist to discuss your treatment options. There is no obligation, you’ll come away with a fully tailored treatment plan and cost. We are an innovative cosmetic practice, and work with highly skilled and experienced cosmetic dentists.

Finance is available through Chrysalis Finance for all treatments we offer over £1000. You can choose from 0% interest over 6, 12 or 24 months, with or without a deposit, splitting the cost of your Lumineers® treatment into smaller monthly payments. Read more about our finance options here, you can also make use of our online calculator to see how much your repayments would be. Any questions regarding payment options? No problem, just contact our team and they will be happy to help.

Whilst there is a range of advantages to opting for either traditional veneers or Lumineers, for some patients, Lumineers can be the preferred choice for a number of reasons. It’s important to recognise that both veneers and Lumineers in the UK can be used to treat a range of common cosmetic issues, including:

Stained teeth
Chipped teeth
Teeth that appear “too small”
Teeth with gaps between them
Misaligned teeth

It’s also important to note that here at The London Centre for Cosmetic Dentistry, we always ensure your veneers and Lumineers are made bespoke to you in our lab. So, whatever the option you choose, you’re going to get a fantastic end result.

But there are some differences that can make Lumineers more appealing to some patients, including the fact that Lumineers are a lot thinner than traditional veneers. At just 0.2mm, they come out about half as thin as normal veneers, making them much easier when it comes to the application process, and therefore less invasive.

In fact, more often than not, none of your natural teeth will require removing before you have Lumineers fitted, so if you ever change your mind about your teeth, you can easily revert back to your natural smile without issue.

Another huge benefit that makes Lumineers in London such a popular option over veneers is their ultra-durable material, making them very hard to break and even more long-lasting. With proper maintenance, you can expect your Lumineers last up to 20 years, which is considerably longer than normal veneers.

Like any type of veneer, Lumineers can improve the appearance of your smile, and protect your natural tooth from further damage if you’ve struggled with that in the past. However, they’re not a viable solution for everyone, and our dentist will need to meet with you and assess your teeth, as well as your dental history before determining whether Lumineers would be the best fit for you and your teeth.

It’s possible, but it’s highly unlikely. The truth is that any type of dental veneer can come loose or fall off, and this isn’t exclusive to Lumineers in London. However, here at The London Centre for Cosmetic Dentistry, we pride ourselves on offering the very best in modern cosmetic dentistry. That means that from your initial consultation, through to preparing your Lumineers and fitting them, we will always take great care in ensuring everything is fitted securely.

Although the likelihood of your Lumineer falling off is slim, our dentists are here for you in case of an emergency, and you get call us any time.

Client Testimonials

Thank you, my teeth are straight and white. Thank you for bearing with me I do find the dentist quite hard. Special thanks to Nina!!!:)

I can’t recommend Dr. Mervyn and Nina enough. I can finally smile without any hesitation!

Mervyn Druin is an outstanding cosmetic dentist and he is such a wonderful, warm, wise man too. His dental nurse Nina Tetra is also absolutely lovely and a comforting joy to be around. Everyone at London Cosmetic Dentistry, from the warm welcome from the gorgeous receptionists, to the dental hygienist, and the other dentists and dental nurses makes this a GREAT experience for patients. And the results speak for themselves! Our smiles light up the world! Thank you Merv and Nina for helping me to always look my best on or off camera!

Dr Mervyn and his fantastic team have absolutely changed my life! I’ve been told for the past 20 years that there is absolutely nothing that can be done with my extremely unfortunate teeth, but taking them all out and replacing with implants, which would cost me tens of thousands of pounds. I got a personal recommendation from a friend who loved her experience at the London Centre for Cosmetic Dentistry; her confidence and happiness improved enormously. Dr Drurian performed a terrific job both for my friend and for me. To this day I cannot believe how quickly, painlessly and effortlessly the treatment went. The support and care I got from the practice and from each individual member of the team was beyond belief. I absolutely love coming into the practice and cannot imagine anyone in the world I would rather entrust my smile with. Having tried a number of top recommended dental and cosmetic surgeries in London, Oxford, Berlin and Moscow throughout the years of being embarrassed and unhappy with my teeth, meeting Mervyn and his lovely professional and caring team and feeling that they are here to help me instead of just promoting some product, was really a fantastic and exceptionally rare experience. Mr Mervyn was able to tailor a perfect painless and easy solution for me in no time. Thank you ever so much Mervyn, Nina and the whole team for changing my perception of myself, helping me gain my confidence back and for showing me what it meant to be a fully supported and cared for patient. If I could do it all all over again, I would be absolutely delighted to!

Most helpful staff. very pleasant atmosphere, friendly; very clean and modern. I needed them fro emergency treatment, they fitted me straightaway even-though I am not their patient. I was pleased it was Dr Leonard Fox , experienced, well mannered and explains everything t the patient. It reminded me of Harley Street clinics back in the 1960s and early 1970s.
