Frequently Asked Questions
How long do porcelain veneers last?
The average lifespan of porcelain veneers is 10 years, but it’s not uncommon for them to last up to 20 years with good care, good oral hygiene and maintenance.
How do you take care of porcelain veneers?
Just the same as proper care of your healthy teeth, but it is worth explaining…
- Brush your teeth twice daily, 2 Minutes.
- floss your teeth once daily.
- Use a fluoride mouth rinse, also daily.
- Don’t use your teeth as tools (yikes!)
- See a dentist for regular dental check ups every 6 months
The same is true for composite veneers too. See FAQ below about Porcelain veneers and Composite veneers.
Are porcelain veneers worth it?
Porcelain veneers are excellent. Dr James Malouf can change the shape, colour, size, and alignment of your teeth. It is a fast and long-lasting way to accomplish a “smile makeover.” One of its advantages is the fact that you need minimal preparation to the teeth.
Do all celebrities have veneers?
We’ve written on our blog a number of times about celebrity veneers because celebrities do spend time and money on their appearance. They’re highly aesthetic. Many celebs have perfect teeth now but yes, most people, even celebrities need help from a cosmetic dentist to achieve a “Hollywood smile”.
Porcelain Veneers – Does the final stage all happen in a single dentist visit?
No. The Smile Design happens over a number of visits as we need to map out the shape, position and colour of your veneers. The application of veneers is done over two visits. First, the teeth are prepared and temporary veneers applied, giving you a preview of the final result, and at the second visit the final porcelain veneers are put in place.
Are there any Porcelain Veneer complications I need to know about?
If you have normal healthy teeth then dental veneers (composite veneers or porcelain veneers) can be bonded to your existing teeth. Porcelain veneers need to be bonded onto something solid.
Missing teeth pose a problem but dental crowns can have new veneers applied just as successfully as natural teeth with healthy enamel.
The veneers are bonded onto your natural tooth structure, just as with your natural teeth it is essential that you care for them to maintain the underlying teeth and regularly visit your dentist (us) monitor tooth wear.
Traditional porcelain veneers are a thin shell and can fracture (just like a natural tooth) if biting into metallic objects, e.g. fork, nails etc.
Dental Veneers are thin shells of porcelain. Porcelain Veneers require only a very small amount of tooth reduction or preparation is required. For this reason it is considered a minimally invasive procedure, carried out with a small amount of local anaesthetic only.
Any appropriately qualified health practitioner would remind you that any invasive procedure carries risks noting that Dental Veneers are not a surgical or invasive procedure.
Porcelain Veneer -vs- Composite Resin Veneers, which is best?
The type of veneers depends on various factors. Composite Resin Veneers are made from composite material. Composite resin veneers Brisbane are available from Dr James Malouf and explained in some detail.
If you’re unsure whether Porcelain veneers in Brisbane or Composite veneers are right for you we’ll be happy to discuss this with you at your First Consultation.
Do health funds cover Porcelain veneers?
Health funds often cover cosmetic dental procedures. The out-of-pocket portion of your fees can be placed on a payment plan if necessary.
Do use temporary veneers?
Yes. Have a look at the process we use when preparing teeth and placing your veneers. We use temporary veneers while the final veneers are fabricated. The temporary veneers are attached to your teeth in a similar fashion to false nails. The appearance of these temporaries will be based on all of our preliminary planning and smile design, which allows you to “test drive” your new smile before going to our final result in porcelain. The temporaries don’t look quite as nice as the final result because the temporary material isn’t as shiny, and doesn’t reflect light the same way porcelain veneers do; however they do let you preview the length, shape, size and alignment that your new veneers provide.
What other questions should I ask dentists about Porcelain Veneers?
Ask about their process. How do they ensure you get the outcome that is planned?
Look for before & after images that really show quality Porcelain Veneer work and demonstrate the sort of beautiful new smile that you want to attain.
