Direct Answers

How long do porcelain veneers last?: Well-made porcelain veneers can last 15 to 25 years or longer with proper aftercare. Longevity depends on the material quality, the bonding technique, and the patient's home care routine.
Can I use whitening toothpaste with veneers?: Most whitening toothpastes are too abrasive for porcelain. Use a non-abrasive formula with a low RDA score. ACE DNTL recommends SELAHATIN whitening toothpaste, which achieves whitening effects without physical abrasion.
Do veneers stain from coffee?: Porcelain itself is highly stain-resistant. However, the composite bonding at the margins can discolour with heavy exposure to coffee, tea, and red wine over time. Moderation and regular professional cleaning help maintain a uniform appearance.
Do I need a night guard with veneers?: If you grind or clench your teeth, yes. Bruxism is the single biggest risk factor for veneer failure. A custom night guard protects the porcelain from the excessive forces generated during sleep.
