Venere vs lumineer

2018-08-09 06:45:52
I understand that Venere is better for gaps upto 2 mm...is there any such approximate cut off wrt to gaps in milimetre required as a favourable criteria for placement of lumineer?or does both lumineer and Venere share the same cut off ,of approximately upto 2mm gaps...one more query...is this lumineer freely available in Kerala?

Hi mam....   Both  lamineers and veneers are used **To hide cracked or chipped tooth **To improve smile **To mask the discoloured tooth **cover the gaps between teeth Lumineers: **It provides same function as veneers but it is not as invasive as veneer.. **In lumineer ,original teeth is left unchanged or enamel is not damaged... **Lumineer requires minimal preparation or no _preparation **Lumineers are quicker to apply than veneer as teeth are not shaved down beforehand... Veneers: It requires minimum tooth preparation...Minimum of 5mmof suface enamel  has to be  removed for veneers... The reduced enamel surface is left uncovered till veneer fixation which may cause little sensitivity....which is one of the disadvantages of veneer Both lamineers and veneers are used if the gap is less than 2 mm... LAMINEERS ARE BETTER THAN VENEER....
