Veneers improve the appearance of teeth that are discolored, worn, chipped, or misaligned.
It’s best to avoid denture cleaners or effervescent tablets, as they may contain ingredients that could harm the aligners. Stick to gentle cleaning methods.
Hold it by the crown, rinse without scrubbing, try reinserting it, or keep it moist (in milk or saliva) and see a dentist immediately.
Maintain good oral hygiene, have regular dental check-ups, avoid tobacco, maintain a balanced diet, and consider using an antimicrobial mouthwash.
You can consume vitamin water with porcelain veneers, but be mindful of its sugar content and maintain good oral hygiene.
Porcelain veneers can effectively improve the appearance of teeth affected by fluorosis, making them look brighter and more attractive.
