Even though they\u2019re a long-lasting solution, they still require proper care to keep them bright and beautiful for as long as possible. Veneers <em>can<\/em> last about ten years, but it truly depends on how well you maintain them. Here are some tips and tricks to help you get the most out of your investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practice Good Oral Hygiene<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plushdentistry.com\/veneers.html\">porcelain veneers<\/a>, you must take care of them like your natural teeth to keep them clean and healthy. That means brushing at least twice a day, flossing daily, and rinsing with mouthwash after every meal. By taking those steps, you\u2019re well on your way towards keeping your veneers well-maintained! However, make sure you\u2019re gentle when it comes to cleaning your new dental hardware. Otherwise, you could damage your veneers by causing chips or cracks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Choose the Right Toothpaste<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you get porcelain veneers, you may want to consider switching to a new toothpaste. The porcelain material can easily become damaged by abrasive substances, so it\u2019s best to stay away from gritty toothpaste. Instead, ask your dentist what kind of whitening toothpaste they recommend. It\u2019ll help prevent staining on your natural teeth and veneers, preserving your seamless results!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Avoid Potentially Harmful Foods<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Since veneers are non-porous, you will have no problem eating foods and drinks that are known to stain teeth (i.e., coffee, tea, wine, berries, and soda). However, you\u2019ll still want to remain mindful about your consumption because they can stain the natural teeth next to veneers, causing a noticeable color difference over time. Also, habits like chewing on ice or hard candy can damage your smile by causing unsightly chips and cracks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kick Bad Habits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need another reason to quit using tobacco products, I\u2019ve got one for you. Not only do they pose a threat to your overall health, but they can also damage your natural teeth and veneers by causing severe discoloration. It\u2019s best to stay away from tobacco products to keep your pearly whites bright and avoid potential health concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">See Your Dentist Regularly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from brushing and flossing, you must also see your dentist regularly for cleanings and exams. Although veneers won\u2019t have the same deterioration and decay like natural teeth, you still need to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy to support them. Routine visits allow your dentist to detect and treat any problems that could become complications down the line. They can also help you determine when it\u2019s time to replace your veneers or other restorations. Therefore, you should continue to see your dentist bi-annually!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Porcelain veneers are an excellent way to enhance your smile. By following the tips outlined above, you can help your new grin last for many years!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Practice<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Plush Dentistry, we make sure your needs always come first.
