49er Roger Craig Seeks Help With His Smile
Dalvir Pannu, DDS
San Jose, CA
The well-known Bay Area football legend credits Dr. Pannu for improving his smile and said, "I feel more confident with my smile when I am in the public eye." 
Dental or porcelain veneers usually cause people to imagine the fake-looking, bright white Chiclet teeth that require a major dental overhaul. Traditionally, veneer procedures have required the removal of sensitive tooth structure. If for any reason a veneer comes off, an ugly little nub remains beneath the artificial surface. With the introduction of Lumineers by Cerinate, Den-Mat, one of the nation's largest manufacturers of professional dental materials, has changed all that. Lumineers are so thin that dentists are able to apply them to teeth without any painful grinding or shaving, creating a remarkable transformation from misshapen, worn teeth, to a naturally beautiful smile. The process of applying Lumineers involves just two or three visits to the dentist. The end result is a custom-made smile clinically proven to last up to 20 years. Since there is no painful removal of tooth structure, there is also no need for anesthesia. Even the post-procedure sensitivity that used to accompany the application of veneers has been eliminated. Traditional veneers are manufactured in two ways, either with an aluminous core, which gives a thick, boxy, unnatural appearance, or without the aluminous core, which causes them to be weak and require an extensive application process. Lumineers eliminate both of those issues - because the material is ultra thin and super strong, the dentist can provide a smile that resists any cracking or damage. 
Surprisingly enough, Lumineers can also provide a convenient substitute for braces and other orthodontics, depending on severity. They may also be used on worn teeth to fortify them and prevent further wear. Den-Mat, the company which developed Lumineers, operates a highly regarded lab which produces veneers for over 2,500 dentists nationwide. Dentistry Today, recently awarded Lumineers a spot in the "Top 100 Products."
