A picture-perfect smile is often the first thing we notice about celebrities. And each camera-ready grin is unique.

"A round face
like Queen Latifah's
looks best with teeth that are slightly rounded at the edges
said Dr. Michael Schneider, a cosmetic dentist.
Usher has a square face - his teeth are more square and slightly smaller. Will Smith
who has a rectangular face
has teeth that are similar to Usher's
yet with slightly sharper line angles."

"With a heart-shaped face like Drew Barrymore's
the chin is more noticeable. The teeth can't line up like [those with] a square or rectangular face and need to have some slight rotation
showing characterization."

However
some of us weren't born with a superstar grin. The dazzling smile you see in magazines and movies or on the street may be the result of cosmetic dentistry procedures
such as veneers.

To avoid the pain that can come with applying regular veneers
people are turning to Lumineers by Cerinate.

Unlike regular veneers
Lumineers doesn't require drilling or grinding down sensitive tooth structure. The procedure is minimally invasive
making anesthesia and pain shots unnecessary.

Clinically proven to last up to 20 years
Lumineers is contact lens-thin and provides instant teeth straightening and permanent whitening
transforming misshapen teeth into a naturally beautiful and perfect smile. It is a convenient substitute for braces and can be used on worn teeth to strengthen them and prevent further wear. Lumineers also can be placed over crowns and bridges to improve aesthetics.

A Lumineers application can be completed in two short visits to the dentist.
