Veneers and Lumineers
Would you like to dramatically enhance your smile? Consider traditional porcelain veneers or no-prep veneers like Lumineers. Made from thin shells of porcelain, veneers can revive your smile by changing the color, size, or shape of your front teeth. Durable and stain-resistant, veneers allow patients to enjoy their gorgeous smiles for years to come.
In just a few visits, veneers can change your smile and life. At the first appointment, Dr. Blickenstaff will prepare your teeth and take measurements that he sends to the dental lab, where an expert ceramist handcrafts your veneers. He will also place temporary veneers, which allows patients to enjoy a preview of their new smiles. You will return to our Portland office for another visit so that Dr. Blickenstaff can make any final adjustments and permanently bond the veneers to your teeth.
Not all patients can wear Lumineers, the thin, no-prep veneers that have become the latest Hollywood trend, because they can make your smile look too bulky. Dr. Blickenstaff will evaluate your smile to determine if you are a good candidate for Lumineers. With this type of veneers, patients don't need significant enamel reduction, and you can remove Lumineers if you decide to return to your original smile.
Invest in your future. Call our Portland dental office and schedule a visit with Dr. Blickenstaff to discuss the benefits of veneers or Lumineers. We serve patients from Portland, Beaverton, Cedar Mill, and the surrounding areas.
