causes of discoloration of teeth:
Teeth can have an infinite variety of color range because of different reasons, mainly the color is genetically (skin color).
The color is given by the set of structures that form the teeth as are the thickness and quality enamel, dentin color and quantity
EXTRINSIC CAUSES: Stains come out of the tooth- ingestion of food, beverages, or contact with other pigmenting agents.
its initial fixation is performed through hydrogen bonds to proteins of dental plaque deposited and fixed to the tooth by calcium bridges.   
INTRINSIC CAUSES:read more...download

Lumineers are made from a special patented cerinate porcelain that is very strong but much thinner than traditional laboratory-fabricated veneers. Their thickness is comparable to contact lenses

Lumineers can be placed on the teeth without removal of the tooth structure.

• Patients can receive their veneers quickly, usually within two weeks from the date that the impressions are made.

Lumineers bond directly to the tooth, making the bond very strong. They are also very long-lasting- up to twenty years or longer.

Lumineers are a reversible procedure.
