Unveiling the Lifespan of Dental Veneers
Considering dental veneers for a dazzling smile? Understanding their longevity is key. At Jersey Smiles, we pride ourselves on helping patients achieve confident smiles through top-notch veneer treatments.
Unveiling the Veneer Lifespan:
- Material Matters: Porcelain veneers reign supreme, lasting 10-12 years with proper care. Composite veneers offer a more budget-friendly option, but typically last 4-8 years.
- Exceptional Care Extends Life: Diligent oral hygiene practices significantly impact veneer longevity. Here’s how:
- Daily Brushing & Flossing: Dedicate two minutes twice a day to brushing and flossing once daily to remove plaque and prevent decay.
- Sweet Limits: Indulge in moderation – excessive sugar can compromise veneers.
- Regular Checkups: Biannual visits to Jersey Smiles ensure professional cleaning and early detection of potential issues.
Understanding Replacement:
While some veneers can last up to 20 years with meticulous care, replacements may eventually be necessary. The process mirrors the initial placement:
- Refinement: Your dentist refines the bonding agent and takes new teeth molds for perfect fitting.
- Crafting New Veneers: Your personalized veneers are meticulously created.
- Bonding and Finishing Touches: New veneers are securely bonded, completing your refreshed smile.
