How Do Porcelain Veneers Work?

Veneers restore your smile to its original brilliance and beauty. After removing a small portion of your enamel, a thin piece of porcelain is bonded to your teeth to recreate your natural smile. Since they are custom made to fit your teeth, the finished product is the correct size and shape for your mouth. A typical veneer procedure is completed in a series of two to three visits.

Veneers Lifespan

Dental veneers can last 7-10 years depending on efforts to care for them by the patient – some have even lasted up to 15 years.  To extend the life of your porcelain veneers, avoid eating hard substances like ice or chewing on your nails, ink pens, or other hard objects.

Dental veneers are cleaned just as your natural teeth with brushing two to three times daily and flossing regularly. While it’s uncommon, it is possible for veneers to fall off or for tooth decay to set into the natural hosting tooth. In this case, the tooth will need a crown.

Should I Get Porcelain Veneers?

Having veneers placed on your teeth is an irreversible process. As you consider the pros and cons of the treatment, keep in mind that people who clench and grind their teeth are typically poor candidates for the treatment as the veneers are more susceptible to cracking or chipping. If you have good oral health, the porcelain veneers process can help create the custom smile you deserve.
