More specifically, you want to know how long veneers last before deciding. With so many celebrities getting them for perfect smiles, it might seem like the ideal solution for gaps, damaged teeth, severe stains, and more. But veneers aren\u2019t permanent. And there\u2019s more to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Material Matters<img <=\"\" alt='Photo by &lt;a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/es\/@rsrocha?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\"&gt;Rafael Rocha&lt;\/a&gt; on &lt;a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\"&gt;Unsplash&lt;\/a&gt; ' class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-5554\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"200\" id=\"longdesc-return-5554\" loading=\"lazy\" span=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cosmeticdentistsgrandprairie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/rafael-rocha-PiifFy1oNqg-unsplash-1.jpg\" width=\"300\"\/><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are three main options for veneers \u2013 porcelain, composite, and no-prep. Composite uses a resin that doesn\u2019t usually last as long as other materials. No-prep may not last as long either and isn\u2019t recommended for those with more severe dental issues, especially stains or damage. For these reasons, most dentists suggest porcelain varieties to their patients. Porcelain materials tend to have the longest life with proper care, hide a wide variety of issues, and match your natural teeth the best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Long Can Your Veneers Last?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While everything depends on how you care for your veneers, the average porcelain variety lasts <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC6311473\/\">approximately ten years<\/a>, though another study found they may last <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/22259802\/\">as long as 20 years<\/a>. Since some enamel is removed from your tooth to place the veneer, you will need to have them replaced as they wear out over time. Your dentist will check yours each visit to see how well they\u2019re holding up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The greatest benefit of veneers is preventing any current damage to a tooth from worsening. But, of course, it\u2019s still susceptible to plaque, bacteria, and cavities, just like any other tooth. So, proper oral hygiene is still important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extending the Life of Your Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Veneers are an excellent investment in your smile, and by following a few simple rules, they could last you well over a decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most importantly, continue to brush and floss regularly. This isn\u2019t just critical for maintaining your veneers but also your surrounding teeth. Additionally, visit your dentist regularly for cleanings and to check the health and durability of the materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep your veneers in great condition by not grinding your teeth. While durable, they aren\u2019t indestructible. Grinding your teeth removes the surface of a veneer just like a natural tooth. If you have trouble with this, ask your dentist about a mouth guard to wear while sleeping. Then, during the day, be mindful of your teeth until you\u2019re able to break the grinding habit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t use your teeth to open products either, such as bags, plastic shell packs, or twist-off caps. Non-edible materials aren\u2019t good for your teeth, especially not veneers. Also, skip out on biting down on hard foods, such as ice or candy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Want to find out if veneer-based solutions are right for you? <a href=\"https:\/\/cosmeticdentistsgrandprairie.com\/services\/veneers\/\">Learn more about our porcelain veneers<\/a>, and feel free to ask us any questions about how they can improve your smile!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you\u2019ve considered cosmetic dentistry, you\u2019ve probably wondered about veneers.
