Veneers are designed to be a long-term cosmetic dental treatment, but their lifespan varies from person to person. Various factors all play a role in how well veneers perform over time.
These factors include:
- Oral hygiene
- Everyday habits
- Regular dental care
Caring for Your Veneers
Looking after your veneers is similar to caring for your natural teeth. Brushing twice a day, cleaning between your teeth daily, and attending regular dental check-ups all help support your oral health and allow your dentist to monitor your veneers.
It's also helpful to avoid using your teeth to open packaging or bite hard objects, as this may increase the risk of damage. If you clench or grind your teeth, your dentist may recommend a custom mouthguard to help protect both your veneers and your natural teeth while you sleep.
