You can conceal a variety of imperfections with them, including chips, cracks, gaps, misalignment, discoloration, and much more. They are an easy, quick, and dramatic way to change your teeth’s colour, shape, length, and size. In this blog your will be learning about some best way to take care of porcelain veneers. 

In order to maintain your veneers, you will need to follow a good standard of oral hygiene, which includes:

  • Brushing twice a day
  • Interdental brushes or flossing
  • Maintaining your veneers by visiting your dentist and hygienist regularly
  • Having regular dental cleanings
  • To protect their veneers from wear and breakage, patients who grind or clench their teeth may need a custom-made splint over night.

Besides following the above basic dental hygiene routine, you should consider the following recommendations to ensure that your porcelain veneers last as long as possible:

It is not a good idea to chew ice or other hard objects

Although porcelain veneers are durable, they can chip or break. If you chew on ice or other hard stuff, such as candy, popcorn kernels, pens, fingernails, etc., you may damage them. Using your teeth as a tool to open bottles or tear off plastic packages is also a bad idea.
