Frequently Asked Questions
- Are dental veneers permanent?
- What are the alternatives to veneers?
- Dental veneers vs dental bonding?
- Dental veneers vs Lumineers?
Depending on your eating habits and hygiene, dental veneers should last 5 to 10 years and in some cases even longer. Veneers can chip or crack and the supporting tooth can still be prone to decay.
Dental bonding and Lumineers are alternatives to veneers. You can also inquire about braces or Invisalign to improve the appearance of your smile.
Dental bonding does not require any tooth preparation however it is more likely to become discolored over time.
Lumineers are are thinner than veneers at roughly 0.03mm thickness and therefore do not need any tooth preparation. Because Lumineers are ultra-thin it is more difficult to mask discolored teeth.
