What are porcelain veneers?<\/h2>\n

Your cosmetic dentist in Caldwell will personalize your porcelain veneers based on your individual measurements and the goals you have. In just two visits, D & G Dental can transform your smile, instantly improving the color, size, shape, and overall appearance of your teeth. Your veneers can cover up plenty of imperfections like chips, cracks, gaps, misalignments, and misshapen teeth for years and years with the help of these 4 maintenance tips.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Maintain Excellent Oral Hygiene<\/h3>\n

If you want your new smile to last long, you must keep your teeth and gums healthy. Good oral hygiene directly correlates to healthy teeth, which are necessary for your veneers to stay in good condition. Brushing twice a day, flossing once a day, along with professional cleanings at our Caldwell office will keep your natural teeth healthy and your porcelain veneers bright and shining.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Don\u2019t Bite Hard Objects or Food<\/h3>\n

Even with your natural teeth, you should avoid biting objects that put your teeth at risk for cracking, fracturing, or chipping. Opening packages and other things is not a good idea if you have porcelain veneers either. They will eventually tear, chip, or break from this bad habit. Veneers can withstand normal biting pressure, but they\u2019re long lifetime can be cut short if they are exposed to unnatural pressures.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Avoid Foods and Beverages That Can Stain<\/h3>\n

One of the best aspects of your veneers is that they are stain resistant! But, it\u2019s better to not challenge your new smile. If you drink dark substances like wine regularly, stains will eventually occur<\/a> over the years. It is okay to indulge sometimes, but enjoy them in moderation with your smile in mind. Rinse your mouth afterwards so that some of the staining particles can be washed away.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Visit Your Dentist Regularly<\/h3>\n
