Lumineers to straighten teeth?

May 30, 2014

I went to my dentist about straightening my teeth. He said because of their shape (meaning their appearance), I should get Lumineers to straighten them. I checked it out and they’re pretty expensive. Couldn’t I just use Invisalign or something? I’m happy with the shape of my teeth, or at least I was until he told me they weren’t attractive.

Denise,

I’m frustrated your dentist said anything to you that could make you uncomfortable with the appearance of your teeth. Everyone has a different perception of what is attractive, so if you’re satisfied with the appearance of your teeth than forget what he says.

If you’re a candidate for Invisalign, then that would be a much more affordable option for you.  You need to be aware that while Lumineers can change the shape and color of your teeth, it doesn’t actually straighten them. It just gives them the appearance of being straight.
