NEW LUMINEERS 360º SAVES 2 TO 3 mm OF DENTIN

Full-Coverage Crowns offer maximum coverage, minimum invasion

Den-Mat Holdings, LLC, the manufacturer of revolutionary LUMINEERS BY CERINATE has developed LUMINEERS 360º, one of the most minimally invasive full-coverage crowns available. These LUMINEERS crowns help preserve tooth structure with no irritation. In addition, LUMINEERS 360º full-coverage crowns eliminate the need for chamfers and shoulder preps. In many cases, LUMINEERS 360º Crowns do not require any anesthetic because dentin removal is avoided.

LUMINEERS 360º is made from patented Cerinate porcelain, a uniquely durable formulation of pressed feldspathic porcelain that gives dentists the strength of pressed and the beauty of feldspathic.

LUMINEERS 360º offers dentists one of the most efficient and esthetic tools for conservative dentistry. Since the process is so conservative, the discomfort usually felt after a traditional crown procedure is often eliminated.

Whether re-shaping acid-worn and severely fractured teeth or creating a straighter, more uniform smile, revolutionary LUMINEERS 360º full-cover crowns are the most minimally invasive crown available. LUMINEERS 360º is also ideal for small, narrow teeth. In addition, normal occlusion and non-bruxer patients are also excellent candidates. By dramatically transforming a smile in the most minimally invasive way, LUMINEERS 360º are the only crowns that preserve and protect natural teeth whenever possible.

LUMINEERS 360º crowns require only 20 - 30% coronal reduction, which is a significant contrast to the 63 - 73% removal needed for a traditional full coverage crown or PFM.

The usual shoulder prep by the gumline is eliminated with LUMINEERS 360º and is significantly less in the other two pertinent areas, which saves chairside time. No "hook" is necessary to rest the porcelain and there is no need to stagger the placement. Also, there is no packing of the cord, eliminating the resulting of soft tissue trauma. All that is needed is 4x magnification and fine diamonds.

"With cases that require crowns rather than veneers, I find that LUMINEERS 360º provides the best possible option," states David F. Ouellet, D.D.S., a cosmetic dentist based in Santa Maria, CA. "Even in the most severe cases, they are the most minimally invasive and painless way to dramatically improve a smile."
