How to care for porcelain veneers<\/span><\/h3>\n

Porcelain veneers can last for anywhere from seven to 20 years, when cared for properly. The good news is it\u2019s really not so difficult to care for your porcelain veneers — and if you already had good oral hygiene to start with, it\u2019s even easier! We\u2019ve got three key tips for your new veneers below.<\/span><\/p>\n

#1: Brush and floss like you know you should<\/span><\/h4>\n

Once you\u2019ve had your veneers bonded securely on, it\u2019s just as important as ever that you brush and floss regularly. Brushing for at least two minutes, twice a day, and flossing daily will help you protect your teeth from decay and maintain excellent health for your veneer. If you struggle from excessive plaque or tartar, however, more frequent brushing and flossing can be beneficial.<\/span><\/p>\n

#2: Seek treatment for nighttime teeth grinding<\/span><\/h4>\n

If you suffer from nighttime teeth grinding, a condition we call bruxism, Dr. Olberding will recommend a custom-fit mouthguard to protect your new veneers. It\u2019s a removable device you wear at night while you sleep, and for bruxism sufferers, this is a vital step to ensuring your smile stays beautiful for years. <\/span><\/p>\n

#3: Visit the dentist as recommended<\/span><\/h4>\n

Dr. Olberding will recommend you come back about a week after your veneers have been placed, so that we can check to make sure everything\u2019s just the way it should be. It\u2019s absolutely crucial for the success of your dental veneers that you maintain this appointment, and come back as recommended. When there is a problem with a tooth or veneer, early solutions are the best way to get everything back on track. <\/span><\/p>\n
