However, they\u2019re far from perfect\u2014although they can last for about 15-20 years, they can sometimes sustain damage to the point of needing to be replaced. If you\u2019re unsure about what to look for, don\u2019t worry; here are 4 obvious signs that it\u2019s time for new veneers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visible Chips, Cracks, and Worn Edges<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your veneers are exposed to the same daily wear and tear as your teeth\u2014including chewing. This means that they are susceptible to becoming fractured, despite the strength of the material used. As time passes, the edges of your veneers can become worn which can also lead to small chips and cracks appearing. When this happens, schedule an appointment with your dentist so the compromised veneers can be replaced before becoming completely broken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">There Are Gaps Between Your Veneers and Your Gums\/Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers require just as much daily upkeep as your natural teeth, meaning that if you neglect your oral hygiene and let something like gum disease develop, you\u2019re jeopardizing your teeth and veneers! Your gumline can begin receding which will create noticeable gaps. This can also lead to tooth decay in the underlying tooth, rendering it unable to fully support the veneer. If you notice any gaps around your veneers, no matter the size, give your dentist a call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Veneers Look Darker<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Each veneer is attached using a small amount of special dental adhesive, and this material naturally darkens over time. Most people believe this to be the tooth or actual veneer darkening, but that is not the case. However, the adhesive material itself cannot be lightened, so the only way to fix this problem is by having the entire veneer replaced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Frequently consuming foods and drinks that contain staining agents (berries, coffee, red wine, tea, soda) can also darken your veneers\u2014even though the porcelain they\u2019re made from is durable, it\u2019s not completely resistant to staining. Since porcelain cannot be whitened like enamel, your veneers will need to be replaced if they become stained in this manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Veneer Has Fallen Off<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The adhesive used to attach your veneers can also wear down over time and become ineffective, leading to your veneers possibly become detached. This is <strong>not<\/strong> something you can handle on your own\u2014contact your dentist immediately so they can promptly replace the veneer. Even if the veneer hasn\u2019t fallen off yet and is loose, it still needs to be addressed quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your veneers are an important part of you; taking care of them and knowing when they need to be replaced will ensure that you continue to have a healthy smile and the confidence that comes along with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Brad Weiss has served patients and families in the Skokie community for several years.
