Frequently Asked Questions
How long do porcelain veneers last?
Porcelain veneers are designed to last 10-15 years or more with proper care. Maintaining a good oral hygiene routine, such as regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups, can significantly extend their lifespan. Additionally, avoiding habits like biting on hard objects or grinding your teeth helps protect your veneers over time.
Are porcelain veneers stain-resistant?
Yes, porcelain veneers are highly resistant to staining. Unlike natural teeth, they don’t absorb pigments from coffee, tea, or wine, helping your smile stay bright longer. However, maintaining proper dental hygiene and avoiding excessive consumption of staining foods or drinks will keep your veneers looking their best. Regular professional cleanings can also enhance their longevity and shine.
Do porcelain veneers look natural?
Absolutely. Each veneer is created using a meticulous layering process that mimics the natural translucency and texture of enamel. This technique ensures that veneers blend seamlessly with your existing teeth. At Smile Lounge, we work closely with skilled technicians who customise each veneer’s colour, shape, and proportions to match your smile perfectly, creating a look that’s both flawless and natural.
