Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Veneers
Are dental veneers painful?
The process for getting your brand-new veneers should be pain-free. For some types of veneers, we may need to get rid of a little tooth enamel to make space for them. But because there are no nerve endings in your enamel, it's painless. If you're nervous about getting your new veneers, talk to us about your concerns and what we can do to make you feel more comfortable.
How long do dental veneers last?
The majority of our patients can expect their veneers to last for a minimum of 10 years. Certain aspects do impact longevity, including your oral care regimen and the kinds of foods you consistently consume. If you tend to eat lots of crunchy, hard, or chewy foods, your veneers may not last as long.
Can dental veneers be repaired?
Although it is possible to damage a veneer, it isn't that common. We may be able to repair your veneers if the damage is small. If your veneer comes completely off, just wrap it in a soft tissue and bring it with you to the office so we can reattach it. If your veneer is not repairable, we will create a new one that matches it perfectly.
How many veneers would I need?
That varies with your smile. Some people only need one or two, while others treat several front teeth so the result looks balanced. How many teeth show when you smile is an important part of the decision.
Can veneers make crooked teeth look straighter?
Mild irregularities can sometimes be disguised by changing the visible shape of the teeth. Veneers don't actually move teeth, though, so orthodontics may be a better option when crowding or bite problems are more significant.
Will veneers stain from coffee or tea?
Porcelain veneers resist staining better than natural enamel. Your surrounding natural teeth can still darken, however, so regular cleaning and sensible habits help keep the overall smile looking consistent.
Do veneers require special cleaning?
No complicated routine is necessary. Brush twice daily, floss around each tooth, and maintain regular professional cleanings. Healthy gums are particularly important because changes around the gumline can affect how veneers look.
Can I get veneers if I grind my teeth?
Possibly, but grinding needs to be considered during planning. Heavy grinding places extra force on porcelain and can increase the risk of chips or fractures. A protective nightguard may be recommended.
