What Are Dental Veneers?
The placement of dental veneers is a dental procedure aiming to achieve a long lasting, noticeable results at the level of the mouth. The procedure achieves this mainly through a tripple action:
- Cosmetic improvement: dental veneers in Turkey cover your teeth with a shiny, natural looking porcelain layer, improving appearance.
- Better functionality: veneers improve chewing, speech and buccal function.
- Dental protection: due to the resilience of the material, veneers provide a natural protection for underlying teeth.
Ongoing dental care after getting veneers in Turkey
Dental veneers require the same care as normal teeth, that is: proper hygiene, good life habits, such as not too much smoking, or drinking coffee or tea, and lastly, not doing too much boxing, or using proper protection. Veneers stain less than normal teeth however, so rest assured, care is much easier.
How Long Do Veneers Last For?
Veneer longevity can greatly vary depending on the material type, but also depending on hygiene habits, nutrition, smoking, sports, and other factors. There are pros and cons to all decisions. Let’s consider some of them.
In Turkey teeth veneers made of zirconium can last +20 years, but they are less natural looking. Porcelain veneers, on the other hand, can last for 15-20 years if properly maintained, so they do have a shorter life span. Lastly, composite veneers usually don’t last more than 5 years.
To sum up, if you maintain proper hygiene and choose a good quality material, you can expect your veneers to last for +15 years.
