How long do porcelain veneers last?
Porcelain veneers typically last 15-20 years with proper care. At Signature Dentistry in Toorak, Dr Kasen Somana uses high-quality dental porcelain and precise bonding techniques for maximum longevity. Avoid biting hard objects, wear a night guard if you grind your teeth, and maintain regular check-ups.
FAQ
Teeth grinding, biting hard objects (ice, pens, fingernails), poor oral hygiene and skipping dental check-ups can shorten veneer lifespan. Dr Kasen Somana at Signature Dentistry recommends a night guard for grinders.
Yes. When veneers reach the end of their lifespan, Dr Kasen Somana at Signature Dentistry removes the old veneer and bonds a new one. The underlying tooth is reassessed to ensure it can support a replacement.
Porcelain veneers resist staining much better than natural teeth or composite veneers. However, the bonding cement at the margins can discolour. Regular check-ups and cleans at Signature Dentistry help maintain a bright appearance.
