: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on Dental
Veneers
What are the considerations
of Dental Veneers?
The considerations to dental veneers include:
- The process is not reversible
- Veneers are more costly than composite
resin bonding
- Veneers are may need to be repaired
or replaced should they chip or crack
- Tooth may become more sensitive
to hot and cold foods and beverages because enamel
has been removed
- Veneer color cannot be altered once
in place and should be properly specified during consultation
with your dentist. If you plan on whitening your teeth,
whitening should be done before getting veneers.
- Veneers can dislodge and fall off,
although not common. To minimize the chance of this
occurring, do not bite hard objects or otherwise put
pressure on your teeth.
- Veneers are not a good choice for
individuals with unhealthy teeth (for example, those
with decay or active periodontal disease), weakened
teeth (as a result of decay, fracture, large dental
fillings) or for those who have an inadequate amount
of existing enamel on the tooth surface.
- Individuals who clench and grind
their teeth are poor candidates for porcelain veneers,
as these activities can cause the veneers to crack
or chip.
How Long Do Dental Veneers
Last?
The life span of a veneer depends on the amount of
"wear and tear" the veneer is exposed to,
how well you follow good oral hygiene practices, and
your personal mouth-related habits. Veneers generally
last between 5 and 10 years or more.
Do Dental Veneers Require
Special Care?
No. Continue to follow good oral hygiene practices
including brushing and flossing as you normally would.
Even though porcelain veneers resist stains, your dentist
may recommend that you avoid stain-causing foods and
beverages (for example, coffee, tea or red wine).
