Porcelain veneers provide a quick and long-lasting solution for stained, chipped, or misshapen teeth. What’s also great about them is that they don’t require extensive maintenance.
You can Care for your Veneers with these Six Easy Tips:
1. Avoid Staining
Porcelain veneers are designed to resemble natural teeth with protective tooth enamel. However, unlike natural teeth, they are non-porous — meaning they don’t stain as easily.
But this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t watch out for staining. Veneers can stain but it just takes longer for them to become discoloured.
To prolong the look of your veneers, it’s a good idea to limit the consumption of the following:
- Red wine
- Coffee
- Tea
- Tobacco products
- Dark sodas
- Turmeric
- Soy sauce
2. Use a Soft Toothbrush
A hard-bristled toothbrush can cause the polish on your veneers to fade. Also, a hard-bristled brush can cause damage to your gums, which can expose part of the veneer. Therefore, opt for a soft bristle brush.
3. Use a Non-abrasive Toothpaste
We also recommend switching to non-abrasive toothpaste. Try to avoid toothpaste with the following ingredients:
- Hydrogen peroxide
- Baking soda
- Calcium carbonate
- Alumina
Instead, choose a toothpaste that is formulated for sensitive teeth. These kinds of toothpaste have mild ingredients that are gentle on veneers.
4. Wear a Mouthguard for Teeth Grinding
Bruxism is the tendency to clench or grind your teeth while sleeping. This can cause damage to your veneers and natural teeth. If you suspect you have a habit of clenching your teeth, talk to our expert dentists about a mouthguard — or an occlusal guard.
Wearing this occlusal guard while you sleep will protect your veneers and teeth from damage.
5. Veneers aren’t your Tools
Although veneers are quite durable, you shouldn’t use them as tools. For example, using your teeth to tear a tag off a shirt rather than using a pair of scissors.
Doing this puts pressure and strain on your veneers, and it could cause chips and cracks.
