Veneers can transform the shape, colour and symmetry of your smile in a single coordinated plan. Knowing what to expect afterwards helps you settle in quickly and protect your investment for years to come.
The first few days
It's normal to feel some mild sensitivity to hot and cold as you adjust, and to notice the new feel of your teeth against your lips and tongue. This usually settles within a few days as you get used to your new smile.
Caring for your veneers
Treat veneers like natural teeth: brush twice a day, floss daily and keep up your regular check-ups. Avoid biting hard objects like ice or pens, and mention any grinding so we can protect your veneers with a night guard if needed.
- Brush and floss as normal
- Avoid biting very hard foods or objects
- Wear a night guard if you grind your teeth
- Keep up six-monthly check-ups
How long do they last?
With good care, quality veneers stay looking great for many years. Regular visits let us keep an eye on them and address any wear early, so your smile keeps its shine.
