FAQ: Cosmetic Artistry & Veneers
How are your veneers designed to look so natural?
A one-size-fits-all smile isn’t our style. Each set of veneers is custom-designed and carefully developed to fit your smile, lip line, and face shape. Our evaluation of your facial symmetry and specific characteristics allows us to achieve balance that makes your face look like a version of you that’s brighter.
Who actually crafts the veneers used at Luminous Smiles?
The quality of a veneer depends on the quality of the hands that make it. Dr. Dimple Desai is an Accredited pioneer of AAACD and works only with the most elite and master ceramists with a like-minded clinical philosophy. The combination of doctor and artisan is rare, and every handcrafted restoration receives just the right amount of strength and natural enamel translucency.
Is it possible to "preview" my new smile before treatment begins?
Yes. Our treatment is highly aesthetic, and therefore we employ sophisticated diagnostic wax-ups and digital smile design techniques. You can see and “try on” the smile before the changes are actually made in order to ensure that you have the smile that we have created for your face and personality.
