LOS ANGELES, July 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Los Angeles dental veneers dentist, Dr. Kevin Sands, today announces that he compares veneers with Lumineers. Dental Veneers have long been one of the most versatile cosmetic treatments available to patients who want to permanently conceal teeth affected by chips, cracks, stains, gaps and improper rotation. With Lumineers now available, patients can have their teeth concealed while retaining the option of having their treatment removed later. Lumineers are also different from veneers in other ways related to durability, appearance and level of transparency. Visit http://www.porcelain-veneers-losangeles.com to learn more.

Like traditional porcelain veneers, Lumineers are thin shells that are bonded to teeth to hide structural and color-related flaws. However, Lumineers are significantly thinner, giving them advantages in some respects but making them less appropriate for addressing certain types of imperfections. The low profile offered by Lumineers reduces or eliminates the need to remove enamel before placement as traditional veneers require, making placement faster and keeping the treatment reversible. When patients have very dark dental stains, however, this thinness can make Lumineers less effective than traditional veneers at achieving total concealment. Many Hollywood smiles have been improved with the help of Lumineers and veneers.

Lumineers are designed with appearance and durability in mind. Their transparency makes them look more natural when placed on teeth, creating cosmetically superior results for many patients. The strength of Lumineers helps them last for up to 15 years or more with proper care, including daily brushing and flossing and regular visits to Los Angeles dental veneers dentist Dr. Kevin Sands. Like traditional veneers, Lumineers also add strength by acting as splints for teeth that are cracked or otherwise structurally compromised. In veneers before and after pictures, interested patients can see how this treatment offers restorative value in addition to aesthetic improvement.

Los Angeles dental veneers dentist Dr. Kevin Sands has been offering cosmetic and restorative care to area patients since he earned his Doctorate of Dental Surgery from the University of Southern California. With a focus on developing personal treatment plans for patients, Dr. Sands gives each individual the best results for appearance as well as oral health. Dr. Sands is a member of multiple professional organizations and is renowned for his cutting-edge and comprehensive approach to modern dental care.
