Am I a good candidate?
Veneers are thin coverings placed over the visible part of the tooth used to correct a wide range of dental issues. If you are considering dental veneers, below are some things to know if you are the right candidate.
Your teeth have dark stains. Tooth whitening treatments can only work with mild to moderate cases of discolored teeth. Extremely dark stains won’t be able to whiten it with teeth whitening treatments. Placing porcelain veneers on top of your stained teeth can completely cover the imperfections.
You have some minor imperfections in your teeth. Porcelain Veneers Treatment is excellent for concealing chips, cracks, or misshapen teeth. Veneers are excellent for treating all cosmetic issues of your teeth at once. For instance, if you have severe teeth stains, crooked teeth, and a chipped tooth, it can all be fixed with a dental veneer, which could typically need several treatments to treat the problem.
You have good overall health. Before undergoing any dental veneer treatment, you must have healthy gums and teeth.
You have sufficient tooth enamel. Before a veneer is placed, dentists will remove some of your enamel to make it adhere to the teeth securely. Therefore, you need to have sufficient enamel.
You do not clench or grind your teeth. A porcelain veneer can get cracked, chipped, or damaged from clenching or biting your teeth. If you habitually chew on hard items such as your nails, ice, pencil, etc. then you may not be a candidate for this treatment as these habits can be harmful to your teeth.
You have good oral hygiene. Since veneers cover your teeth’ imperfections, it is essential to brush and floss your teeth regularly so that it can last for years without needing replacement.
The only way to know if you can have dental veneers is to have your dentist assess your condition.

Getting veneers is not cheap; therefore, you need to make sure that it will last for as long as possible. Below are some things you can do to make the veneers last longer.
Use your teeth only for eating foods. Although our teeth are the hardest part of our body, it cannot be used as scissors, bottle openers, or any other non-food related things that you think the teeth can do. Using your teeth as tools can easily chip, crack, or destroy the veneers.
Do not grind your teeth. If you have the habit of grinding or clenching your teeth, you are shortening your veneers’ lifespan. If you unconsciously grind your teeth, especially when you sleep, we recommend you wear night guards to protect your teeth and the veneers.
Wear mouth guards when you play sports. If you play contact sports such as basketball or volleyball, you need to wear mouthguards to protect your teeth in case of an impact. The impact of getting hit by a ball, for example, can easily chip or damage the veneers.
