Seattle Dental Veneers
Seattle residents should know that today's porcelain dental veneers offer incredible durability, with a much longer lifespan than veneers made with other materials. With proper care, it's reasonable to expect your porcelain dental veneers to last 10 years or more.
One thing you can do to lengthen the lifespan of your porcelain dental veneers is to practice proper oral home care. Treat your veneers just as you'd treat your natural teeth. Be sure to brush and floss every day, using a non-abrasive toothpaste. This will prevent the surfaces of the tooth that haven't been veneered from falling prey to decay. It will also help prevent gum disease, which can cause the gum line to recede. Since most dental veneers end right at the gum line, this recession can mar the look of the veneered tooth.
Finding a Seattle Dentist to Give You Long-Lasting Dental Veneers
You should also remember that although porcelain dental veneers are resilient, they can suffer damage if subjected to strain or sharp blows. Refrain from biting your fingernails. Nibbling on inflexible objects such as ice or hair pins is also a no-no, as doing so could loosen your veneer.
