What is the lifespan of porcelain veneers? Can porcelain veneers withstand hard foods?

Porcelain veneers are considered a breakthrough in minimally invasive cosmetic dental procedures, addressing issues such as discolored, yellowed, unevenly spaced, or gapped teeth, transforming them into uniformly beautiful, bright teeth.

What are porcelain veneers?

Porcelain veneers are thin, lightweight ceramic shells, ranging from 0.1-0.6mm in thickness, applied to the surface of teeth using specialized adhesive to ensure both durability and aesthetic appeal. They come in a variety of colors, allowing customers to select the most harmonious and natural shade for their facial features.

Are porcelain veneers thick?

Porcelain veneers are thin, ensuring that when applied to teeth, they do not expose the ceramic material or interfere with the natural teeth, resulting in a seamless, flush fit without any protrusion or overlap.

With a thickness ranging from 0.1 to 0.6 mm, porcelain veneers provide a flawless appearance akin to natural teeth. Particularly for cases of tooth discoloration or yellowing, veneers offer high aesthetic restoration, leaving teeth bright and glossy without concerns of peeling.

The lifespan of porcelain veneers?

The lifespan of porcelain veneers can range from 10 to 20 years, or even exceed 20 years with proper scientific care.

The factors that may affect the lifespan of porcelain veneers, according to dental experts, include:

– The material of the porcelain veneers

– The quality of dental adhesive

– The expertise of the dentist

– Modern medical equipment

– Proper oral care

Is it possible to consume hard foods with dental veneers?

With a hardness reaching 400 MPa, while natural teeth only achieve 220-260 MPa, clients can be assured that dental veneers fully ensure chewing functionality. There is also no need to worry about the veneers becoming detached or dislodged.

When applying dental veneers, one can eat and drink as usual. With this method, there is no need to worry about consuming hot, hard, or tough foods. Veneers do not alter the normal function of the teeth. The outer veneer layer does not affect the bite, chewing function, or taste perception. Therefore, clients can crush and experience flavors just like with natural teeth.

Post-Veneer Care Instructions

To ensure the longevity of your teeth, clients should adopt a healthy and scientific diet. Avoid harmful substances such as tobacco, alcohol, beer, and coffee. Do not use your teeth to bite objects like bottle caps or coins. When chewing, distribute the force evenly and avoid using only one side of the jaw or consistently chewing with one part of the teeth.

Additionally, maintain proper oral hygiene. Brush your teeth at least twice a day to protect your oral health. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush to avoid damaging the gums. Complement brushing with the use of mouthwash and dental floss.

Regularly visit a reputable and high-quality dental clinic for check-ups. This enables the detection of any oral health issues and ensures the warranty of the veneers is upheld in case of any problems.
