Years ago, smile makeovers involved multiple dental treatments over a period of several months. That's no longer the case, thanks to porcelain veneers. Porcelain veneers are ultra thin shells made of translucent porcelain that can be bonded to your teeth for cosmetic purposes. Extremely versatile and durable, porcelain veneers are an excellent option whether you want a total smile makeover, need to cover a chipped tooth, mask a cracked tooth, or close gaps between your teeth. They require little to no preparations and can often be applied in just one dental visit!

FAQ Questions

Can veneers get cavities?

In short, porcelain veneers themselves cannot get cavities. However, the teeth they adhere to are still subject to decay, which is why it is of the utmost importance that you maintain a solid oral hygiene routine following your procedure.

How long after veneers can I eat?

Directly after getting your temporary veneers, you should not eat or drink anything for at least two hours or until the anesthesia has completely worn off and you can move your facial muscles.

Can plaque grow on veneers?

While your veneer itself is resistant to decay, you can still get plaque buildup on the tooth and gums around your veneer.

How long does it take for veneers to heal?

Once you get your teeth after the veneers are removed, it will take up to two weeks for your mouth to heal. However, the overall time taken in the process also results from your oral hygiene.

How long do veneers last?

With care, your porcelain veneers should last you 15 years or longer. Even better, it's strong enough that you rarely have to worry about damage to it. One more thing to consider with porcelain veneers is your habits. If you have daily behaviors that stain your teeth, porcelain is highly stain-resistant.
