Do you have to get lumineers for you entire mouth?

Depends: Lumineers are a cosmetic procedure only. How many you have done is a cosmetic issue. If teeth are damaged, you may need other types of restorations.

No: Only for visible teeth when you smile. Usually between 6 to 10 teeth in one arch.

No: It depends on the level of brightness you desire, the number of teeth that show when you smile, and how dark your teeth are without them.

No...: Lumineers are generally done for the front teeth and premolars. There are generally two premolars located behind each canine or eye tooth. I do not trust them on the molars where the forces of biting are much stronger.

Not for all: Veneers, and Lumineers is just one variety, are for cosmetic correction, brightening. They do have a finite life span and at some point will require replacement. Have you considered seeing an Orthodontist to have your teeth straightened, and then having them bleached? May be less expensive that veneers.
