Straighten Teeth with Ultra-thin Veneers (aka Lumineers)
American River Dental has a unique and beneficial service to use ultra-thin porcelain veneers (also referred to as Lumineers) that make it possible to straighten teeth in a matter of days instead of years (like it would take wearing traditional braces). We call this procedure Instant Orthodontics. With Instant Orthodontics, you virtually eliminate the overall treatment time as well as the potential of having uncomfortable brackets, unsightly metal wire and the regular adjustment appointments typically associated with braces. We specialize in this ground-breaking technique and will be happy to help you create your perfect smile for you. Call our office at 916-362-9247 and ask us about how Lumineers can help you.

Placing Porcelain Veneers
Veneers are a thin, semi-transparent tooth shaped “shell” that are custom made of porcelain. They are permanently bonded to your natural teeth which are located in your “smile zone” to enhance their shape, color, length or size. Veneers can fix gaps between teeth and/or improve the appearance of teeth that are discolored, misshaped or misaligned.
1. The teeth are cleaned and any old surface restorations are removed.
2. An impression is taken of the prepped tooth and sent to a lab where the veneer is fabricated.
3. The veneer is applied with bonding resin and a curing light.
4. After the veneer is set, it is shaped and polished to look like a natural tooth.
