Are porcelain veneers permanent?
Veneers are not permanent, but they are a very popular and effective way to improve the appearance of your smile and can be an alternative to braces. Veneers are thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored porcelain that are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth. They can be used to correct a wide variety of cosmetic dental problems, including stained, misshapen, or slightly crooked, or chipped teeth. Porcelain veneers are an excellent choice for people who want to improve their smile quickly and effectively.
Do dental veneers damage your teeth?
Although veneers are generally safe, there is a risk that they could damage your teeth. If you have veneers, it’s important to take care of them and see your Rancho Bernardo dentist regularly for checkups.
Can porcelain veneers turn yellow?
New veneers are made from a type of ceramic material that is very resistant to staining and yellowing. However, over time, the porcelain may become slightly discolored due to exposure to certain foods and drinks, smoking, or other factors. Luckily, this discoloration is usually not very noticeable and can be easily remedied with a professional cleaning, which will improve the appearance of your teeth.
