Caring for your veneers
Looking after your veneers is really quite simple; there aren’t any special pastes or mouthwashes you need to buy. Just brush your teeth regularly and keep up your flossing routine.
With proper maintenance and diligent home cleaning, your new veneers will stay bright for years (some patients report they still look great after two decades). As with your natural teeth, avoid nail biting, opening bobby pins, and make sure to use a nightguard if you grind your teeth at night (we can fit you with one). Although veneers are strong, if you bite on something not meant to go in your mouth or are one to chew on ice, there’s a good chance you’ll end up with damage.
And it’s also wise to avoid (or consume in moderation) beverages, foods, and substances that can cause staining. Veneers, just like natural teeth, can be stained.
