Porcelain veneers can make big changes to your appearance, but what else will they change? Will you find yourself cutting almost all of your favorite foods from your diet? Will you need to perform some complicated ritual to clean your teeth? Your regular responsibilities when it comes to taking care of your smile will largely go unchanged. Your dentist may recommend a non-abrasive toothpaste, to prevent any scuffing of your veneers, but you will still brush and floss like normal. You should be mindful of the products you consume. While veneers are resistant to stains, they cannot be treated with whitening agents, like your enamel. Your veneers are built to handle the biting and chewing pressures your teeth have already been facing, but being mindful of actions that can cause damage can help you preserve them.
Why Patients Choose Porcelain Veneers To Make Changes To Their Smile
Patients who want to make big changes to their smiles often turn to porcelain veneers to make those big changes a reality. With their placement, they can address issues like discoloration, damage, and even some developmental worries. Some patients are even excited to learn that some minor alignment issues can be corrected, sparing them orthodontic work.
Maintaining The Quality Of Your Veneers
Maintaining your veneers is important. Of course, maintaining healthy teeth is important, and you have hopefully already been doing well with that! Keep up with regular brushing and flossing when you have your veneers placed. While you can count on your veneers when you bite and chew, be mindful that too many dark or color-rich items, like coffee, tea, and red wine, may lead to stains.
