What happens after the veneer is fitted?

Once the permanent veneers are ready to be placed, the dentist will make the final adjustments until the patient is satisfied with the appearance of teeth and the bite. When it is all in order, the dentist will bond the veneers into place with tooth-colored veneer cement. This is a permanent bonding. After the bonding process is complete, the dentist will remove any extra cement from the sides, and polish the veneers. Thereafter, the patient is ready to use his or her teeth in a normal manner. But it is advisable to avoid chewing hard or sticky substances for the first few days. Even in the long run, only a minimal use of hard, sticky or colored food and drink are recommended in order to prolong the life of veneers.

The patient must be aware that the process of veneers is usually irreversible once the teeth have been prepared. So if the patient wants to have a change of mind regarding this treatment, it is better to do so before the tooth preparation process. However, there are some ultra thin qualities of veneers available in the market today that require minimal or no tooth preparation. So the veneers process may be reversible in these circumstances.

Once the patient starts using veneers, it is advisable to take proper care of oral health and follow good hygiene practices. If the tooth begins to decay due to poor oral hygiene, it can compromise the life of the veneer. It is also important for people who use veneers to visit LaserDentalAssociates.com periodically for general dental exams. During the dental visit, the dentist can clean and polish the veneer if necessary, and do any minor adjustments if required. In general, the user of veneers can continue to perform all normal oral activities like any other person with healthy teeth.
