A veneer (lumineer) preparation cut is a type of dental procedure in which a dentist removes a small amount of tooth structure in order to make room for a dental veneer. A veneer (lumineers) is a thin, custom-made shell that is placed over the front surface of a tooth to improve its appearance.
The stages of a veneer (lumineers) preparation cut typically include the following:
Anesthesia: The dentist will numb the area around the tooth to be prepared with a local anesthetic, ensuring that the patient does not feel any pain during the procedure.
Tooth preparation: The dentist will use a dental drill or other cutting tool to remove a small amount of tooth structure, creating a smooth, even surface on the tooth that will allow the veneer to fit securely and comfortably.
Impression taking: The dentist will then take an impression of the prepared tooth, which will be used to create a custom-made veneer (lumineers) that fits the tooth perfectly.
Temporary veneer (lumineers) placement: The dentist may place a temporary veneer (lumineers) on the prepared tooth, which will protect the tooth and allow the patient to eat and speak normally until the permanent veneer is ready.
Permanent veneer placement: Once the permanent veneer (lumineers) is ready, the dentist will remove the temporary veneer and cement the permanent veneer into place. The dentist will then check the fit and bite to ensure that the veneer is comfortable and secure.
Overall, the goal of a veneer (lumineers) preparation cut is to create a smooth, even surface on the tooth that will allow the veneer to fit securely and comfortably in the mouth. This procedure is typically performed by a dentist.
