Frequently asked questions on porcelain veneers

What happens to my teeth after veneers, and will I suffer from cavities again?

Dental veneer is bonded to your present teeth and there are slight chances of decay, provided you take care of veneers by brushing and flossing properly. A good dental care advice is to reduce the level of sugar consumption and confine it to meals only in order to stay away from tooth decay.

Do veneers require special care after the treatment?

Dental veneers do not require special care. However, it is important to follow good oral hygiene such as brushing, flossing, and rinsing properly with an antiseptic mouthwash to prevent the attack of bacteria inside your mouth.

Our dental practitioner may help you to prevent teeth stains even after taking tea, coffee or red wine. Yet, if there are stains, it is better to go for dental veneers at Wimbledon Dentist. It is advised to get in touch with our experienced dentists who can overcome these oral problems.

If I treat my upper teeth with veneers, will my lower teeth still be of different color?

This is an important factor that needs to be discussed during your mouth assessment and smile makeover so that everything matches properly. Patients usually whiten their lower teeth with whitening procedures for stronger and healthy teeth.

Does porcelain veneers stain with tea, coffee and wine?

Porcelain veneers should never stain; however; if your teeth have a tendency to get stained, you should try to avoid drinking tea, coffee or wine that leads to staining. It is suggested to practice good oral habits in order to keep your teeth whiter and brighter.

How long does porcelain veneers last?

They can last from seven to twenty years. After this, you will have to get them replaced. While the veneer is static, the teeth (to which they are attached) and the adjacent gum tissues might change. For example, the contraction of gum line may expose or disclose the root surfaces. If a veneer gets detached, it can be rebonded. However, if it gets chipped, it can sometimes be rebonded or replaced.
