NORTH HOLLYWOOD, CA, November 12, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- A flawed smile can have a profound effect on a person's self-esteem, but the right dental treatments, which may include in-office whitening, dental veneers or orthodontics, can help eliminate flaws and create a more aesthetically pleasing smile. Dental veneers are porcelain shells that are about as thick as contact lenses. They are bonded to the fronts of teeth in order to enhance the appearance of the teeth or correct minor flaws. Many types of dental veneers are available, including composite resin, porcelain veneers and Lumineers. NOHO Dental Group, North Hollywood dental practice, is currently offering free consultations for Lumineers to help patients learn more about their options.
Lumineers are thin, durable no-prep dental veneers that can be bonded directly to the surface of the teeth without extensive preparation or removal of dental enamel. They, like porcelain dental veneers, can be used to correct many minor to moderate aesthetic concerns, including stains, chips, misalignments and cracks. Even though Lumineers are long lasting and may remain in place for 20 years or more, they are considered reversible thanks to their no-prep design. Dr. Ghasri, North Hollywood Lumineers specialist, can help those with concerns about the appearance of their smiles determine if they are candidates for Lumineers and design a smile that enhances their overall look.
Others with more minor aesthetic concerns, such as staining, may be able to benefit from teeth whitening. In-office whitening treatments, such as Zoom whitening, tend to produce dramatic results and may leave teeth eight shades whiter after a single one-hour procedure. Take-home treatments can produce similarly dramatic results in the privacy of a patient's own home in one to two weeks.
