During the procedure, local anesthesia is usually administered in order to reduce discomfort during the preparation process, where some amount of enamel needs to be removed from each tooth before placing the new ones over them. Once all steps have been completed, patients typically don’t report feeling any pain since all changes have already been applied and adjusted accordingly by their dentist beforehand.
With proper care, dental veneer longevity can be up to 10 years or more, depending on the material used in their construction and your oral hygiene habits. Porcelain is known to be stronger and more durable than other options available, so they typically last longer than composite resin when taken care of properly. Regular dentist appointments should also be scheduled as needed in order for your dentist to check the condition of your dental work, including any signs of wear or damage that need attention in order for your veneer’s longevity to be increased.
Veneers are most commonly made from either porcelain or ceramic materials. Porcelain veneers are strong and highly stain-resistant but have a higher price tag than composite resin veneers. Composite resin veneers are also an effective option for restoring teeth and have a slightly lower cost than porcelain while still providing good strength and durability.
The cost of veneers can vary depending on the type, quality, and the number of veneers needed. Compared to other cosmetic dental treatments, veneers are typically more expensive. It is important to speak with your dentist about payment options prior to getting veneers.
