Lumineers and veneers are cosmetic dentistry options that can help restore your teeth for a beautiful smile.
Did you know that approximately 50% of adults are self-conscious about their teeth? That’s right, more than half the US adult population is relieved that we have to wear face masks because they cover up their teeth.
Our adult daughter has cerebral palsy and requires being fully sedated when having anything done. The DAC was such a positive experience. Dr Hoffmann and his staff were kind and did great explaining things. As a mom, I had a lot of questions about how certain things would be done as usually she’s in her chair when getting examined at her local dentist and they had everything under control including transferring from her chair to the dentist chair and keeping her secured in the dentist chair as well as keeping her neck and legs comfortable. Many thanks to them!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re grateful for your trust and happy to hear that you had such a positive experience with our team. Our goal is always to provide compassionate, attentive care in a safe and comfortable environment. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.
TWENTY YEARS! That is how long our special needs son has been seeing Dr Hoffman and his dedicated team! Our son suffers from an intellectual disability, is non-verbal, and is unable to cooperate for dental cleaning, x-rays, or other routine dental work. He requires general anesthesia. It is such a blessing to avoid a hospital setting just for dental work.
The team is always well staffed, friendly, personable and very professional. Every single year we have been supported by a deeply caring team who are dedicated to patients with a very wide range of disabilities and needs. They have shared useful dental advice and tools (3 sided toothbrushes, blocks to hold open their mouth for daily at-home care, etc.) which improved our son’s daily dental care. We always receive a call back the day after to check his recovery-even on weekends!
Highly recommended and so appreciative to have this team supporting our ever long road of raising a special needs son.
Response from the owner:Wow — thank you for sharing such a heartfelt review! We are so grateful for your trust and for allowing our team to be part of your family’s journey over the years. It means so much to us to know that our care and support have made a difference. We truly appreciate your kind words and recommendation!
We've been coming to Dr.Hoffman for twenty years. There's a reason we keep coming back! He's great. His staff is great. He's double boarded as an MD (Anesthesia) and DDS!!! Our son with special needs needs sedation for even a cleaning. You get what you pay for. He's expensive and... we know he's getting the best care!
Response from the owner:Thank you for trusting our team over the years and for your kind words about Dr. Hoffmann and our staff. We truly value your confidence in the care we provide!
Omg!! This place is Amazing! The people who work here are so very nice and understanding. I love this team
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words! We truly appreciate your support and are grateful to have such wonderful patients.
Searching for a new dental clinic is challenging for someone who has
dental anxiety, fear, and traumatic experiences in a dental chair. The staff and doctors at the Dental Anesthesia Center were immediately very welcoming. Dr. Thoms put together a very detailed plan to repair and replace the previous work that I had in the past that was now causing problems. Putting my faith in him was the best thing that I could have done for my situation. I am more than completely satisfied with all of the extensive dental work that I’ve had with Dr.Thoms. I had my fourth sleep dentistry experience yesterday and I’m very happy with my results. I highly recommend this practice and truly want to give them more than five stars! Thank you for giving me back my health and confidence.
Response from the owner:We know it isn’t always easy to find a dental office where you feel at ease, so your words mean the world to us. We’re so glad you feel comfortable with our team and truly appreciate your trust and recommendation!
Everybody wants a perfect smile, and thanks to veneers and lumineers, everyone can have one. Lumineers and veneers are cosmetic dentistry options that can help restore your teeth for a beautiful smile. Below is how you can upgrade your smile with veneers or lumineers.
What Are Veneers?
Veneers are cosmetic porcelain coatings for your teeth. They’re white, spotless, and shiny like your standard Hollywood teeth. Veneers can cover up cosmetic issues like stains, chips, and cracks for a better smile.
To get veneers, your dentist will first have to conduct checks on your teeth to determine whether you qualify for veneers. If your teeth aren’t strong enough, you might have to settle for dental crowns instead.
Benefits of Veneers
Veneers can do wonders for your not-so-perfect teeth. Here are a few benefits of veneers.
- They look natural– It’s hard to tell veneers from natural teeth unless you look real close. Veneers look and feel natural and are a great way of upgrading your smile without using artificial teeth.
- They don’t stain– Unlike natural teeth, veneers don’t stain with improper dental hygiene. However, you must still take good care of them, or they may stain slightly after five years.
- Boost your confidence– Veneers can cover up any cracks, discolorization, or chips. This can be a great confidence boost and improve your quality of life.
What Are Lumineers?
Lumineers are a specific veneer brand that is cheaper, thinner, and easier to apply than ordinary veneers. Lumineers serve the same purpose as veneers and cover any teeth deformities that may ruin your smile.
Benefits of Lumineers
- Cost-Effective – Lumineers are more affordable than standard veneers. So they’re a great option if you’re strapped for cash and need to upgrade your smile.
- Fast Application – A quick and simple dental procedure will have you with a beautiful new smile in no more than an hour. That means you don’t have to worry about any lengthy or excruciating procedure, characteristic of most dental works.
- Reversible – If, for whatever reason, you don’t like your lumineers, you can have your dentist remove them in an instant. You can then consider ordinary veneers or other dental alternatives.
