Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Are porcelain veneers permanent?
Porcelain veneers are considered a permanent cosmetic dental treatment as a small amount of enamel is removed from the teeth to accommodate them. However, they may need to be replaced over time due to normal wear and tear.
Do porcelain veneers require special care?
Porcelain veneers do not require any special care beyond regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups. It’s essential to avoid biting hard objects or using your teeth as tools to prevent damage to the veneers.
Are porcelain veneers painful to get?
The process of getting porcelain veneers is typically painless, as it is performed under local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. Any discomfort experienced after the procedure is usually minimal and can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.
How long does it take to get porcelain veneers?
The process of getting porcelain veneers usually requires two or three appointments. During the first appointment, Dr. González will prepare the teeth, take impressions, and create temporary veneers. At the subsequent appointment(s), the permanent veneers will be bonded to the teeth.
Can porcelain veneers be whitened?
Porcelain veneers are resistant to stains and discoloration, so they cannot be whitened with traditional teeth whitening methods. However, if surrounding natural teeth become discolored, they can be whitened to match the shade of the veneers.
