Once you see what they can do, you\u2019ll probably hope that the changes they make to your smile will last forever. However, the unfortunate fact is that every kind of dental work needs to be replaced eventually, and veneers are no exception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, there are plenty of things that you can do to make your veneers last for as long as possible. Here are a few examples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep Up With Dental Hygiene<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers are placed on the front of your natural teeth, which means that they rely on the integrity of your enamel for support. They also can\u2019t completely protect your tooth from decay, and developing a cavity on a veneered tooth may mean that you\u2019ll have to replace them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For that reason, it\u2019s even more important than usual to stay on top of your dental hygiene. Be sure to brush your teeth twice a day and floss daily to break up emerging plaque deposits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use the Right Toothpaste<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most toothpaste is designed specifically with enamel in mind. This means that they may not work quite as well on porcelain, which is what most veneers are made out of. In fact, many of the most common kinds of toothpaste can potentially damage that porcelain. If you want to protect the longevity of your veneers, you should have a good understanding of which toothpaste to avoid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, baking soda and charcoal are common abrasives that can scrub stains off of enamel. Porcelain, however, isn\u2019t quite as strong, and toothpaste containing these substances can potentially leave small abrasions on the veneer. Be sure not to use gritty, abrasive toothpaste on your veneers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whitening toothpaste also doesn\u2019t work on porcelain and the hydrogen peroxide used often in them can weaken the cement that bonds veneers to the tooth. For these reasons, you should avoid whitening toothpaste as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stopping Bruxism<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Bruxism, or grinding teeth, is a fairly common nighttime habit. You may be putting your teeth under an enormous amount of pressure while you sleep without even realizing it. If you deal with bruxism and want to protect your veneers, you should talk to your dentist about getting a professionally crafted nightguard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Our Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Village Walk Dental, we believe that great oral healthcare doesn\u2019t begin and end with cold, sterile science.
