FAQ
What are dental veneers, and how do they work?
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells of porcelain or composite resin that cover the front surface of your teeth. They are designed to improve the appearance of teeth that are discolored, chipped, misaligned or worn down. Veneers are bonded to the teeth to create a more uniform, natural-looking smile. The process typically involves a small amount of enamel being removed from the tooth to ensure a proper fit.
Are dental veneers a permanent solution?
Dental veneers are considered a long-term cosmetic solution, but not necessarily permanent. Porcelain veneers can last 10 to 15 years or more with proper care, while composite veneers generally last about five to seven years. Since a small amount of enamel must be removed from the tooth, veneers are irreversible, and you may need replacements in the future if they wear down or become damaged.
What are the benefits of dental veneers/
Dental veneers offer a variety of benefits, including improving the color, shape and alignment of your teeth. They are a versatile cosmetic option that can correct multiple issues, such as discoloration, gaps, minor misalignment and chips. Veneers are designed to look natural and are stain-resistant, providing you with a bright, aesthetically pleasing smile that can significantly boost your confidence.
How should I care for my dental veneers?
Caring for dental veneers is much like caring for your natural teeth. Brush at least twice a day with a non-abrasive toothpaste, floss daily and avoid biting on hard objects like ice or pens, as this can damage the veneers. It is also important to limit staining foods and drinks, such as coffee, tea and red wine, especially if you have composite veneers. Regular dental check-ups will ensure that your veneers stay in optimal condition.
