Chicago Lumineers

Dr. Cohen and Lumineers

Dr. Cohen is not doing Lumineers currently, but he may be doing them in the future if there is enough demand from his patients. He has taken the Lumineers certification course.

Lumineers are a particular brand of porcelain veneers that are made by the Den Mat corporation. They're made out of Cerinate porcelain, which is very strong, and so they are a little bit thinner than the average porcelain veneer.

There are some dentists that we feel promote Lumineers too aggressively. They are a high profit item for dentists because they require little work, and it is relatively easy to become certified to place them. The problem comes if the dentist isn't fully prepared to do all types of cosmetic dentistry. In his or her excitement, the dentist may not give you an accurate evaluation as to whether this is the best treatment for you.

Dr. Cohen, having many years of experience with all types of cosmetic dentistry, will be honest with you about what type of material would be best for you, if you want porcelain veneers. He is also certified in Invisalign invisible braces, and many patients who think they need Lumineers would actually be better served with this option.

Dr. Bill Cohen is one of only a handful of accredited cosmetic dentists in the Chicago area. He has been trained in the placement of all brands of porcelain veneers, and has the artistic sensitivity to give you a great smile.

Some advantages of Lumineers:

They’re made from a type of porcelain called Cerinate® which is exceptionally strong.
Because Cerinate® is so strong, the veneers can be made thinner than traditional porcelain veneers. They’re made about 0.2 mm in thickness, compared to about 0.5 mm, which is the thickness of traditional veneers.
