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.
We brought our 1.5 and 3.5 year old daughters here for cleaning / check ups. Our dental hygienist Laina was amazing...made them feel so comfortable. They had a great time and keep asking when they can go to the dentist again. Dr. Hoffman was great too and made everything super quick and not stressful. Great place for kids in addition to adults!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words! We’re so glad to hear your little ones had such a positive experience. We’ll be sure to share your compliments with Laina and Dr. Hoffman! 💙
Every person in the office is so personable. That first off makes you comfortable. But then the methods used to clean my teeth, particularly. I don't feel a thing, and it's the first time in my life that I haven't. And I have a lot of anxiety about dental work, and I really do not feel a thing when my teeth are being cleaned
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words! We’re so glad our team could help make your experience comfortable and relaxing. It means so much to know you felt at ease with your care!
I came here with my 18 year old daughter who has an immense fear of Doctors and Dentist , The kindness and understanding without any judgement we received from Dr.Thom was just unbelievable. The work he did on my daughter was life changing for her . I would recommend him to anyone . Just amazing, kind talented Doctor.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your heartfelt words! It means a great deal to our team to know that you felt welcomed, understood, and cared for. We’re especially grateful you shared how meaningful your experience was.
We met Dr. Shawn in Sept 2023 and in December, he removed our adult nonverbal son's wisdom teeth. Not gonna hold you, general anesthesia is billed incrementally (by the minute/quarter-hour) and is a heavy financial investment. I love this clinic because it really is a safe space for special needs families. There's a huge calm that accompanies knowing your dependent person is getting healthy. Dr. Shawn is exceptional. We drove 6 hours to get here so we'll choose a local practice for routine sedation cleanings down the road. I hope to see more neurodivergent acceptance built locally in our state's dentistry like this team has here. Meanwhile we are so grateful for this practice and grateful our son was in Dr. Shawn's care.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for sharing your heartfelt words. We’re honored to be a place where families feel safe, supported, and understood. Your trust in Dr. Thoms and our team truly means so much to us.
Dr. Thoms and Robin are excellent in their care, concern, and support. Dr. Thoms explains everything and takes his time. If I have questions or concerns, he is easy to talk to and listens well.Robin is right there by my side throughout procedures. Her technical skills and professionalism are impressive. She is terrific!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words! We’re so glad Dr. Thoms and Robin made you feel heard, supported, and cared for. We’ll be sure to share your wonderful compliments with them—they’ll mean so much!
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.
