Having a smile that is beautiful enough to attract others is not difficult anymore with the help of cosmetic dentistry. Veneers are a good choice in this regard. However, there can be a number of problems that can occur with veneers if an expert does not apply these properly. Let’s explore today what problems a patient can face.
Dental veneers can be vulnerable
People who opt for veneers usually expect these to last long as the patients cannot remove these. However, due to some bad habits like teeth grinding and clenching, the lifespan of veneers can reduce, and veneers can come off.
Discomfort from application
Though veneers can enhance your smile, these can also cause a little discomfort. Weeks of pain can make a person tired of the new smile. The teeth may also become sensitive because of removing a very layer of enamel to fix veneers. Furthermore, a dentist should be specialized in installing veneers. Even a slight mistake can create a lifelong problem.
Loss of Tooth Mass
For applying veneers, the dentist removes a thin layer of enamel from the teeth so that veneers can fit properly. A dentist may, by mistake, remove the extra layer of enamel from the teeth, which may lead to sensitivity and pain.
Veneers are not reversible
You may like others’ smiles and teeth and would want to have the same. But once you get veneers applied, you may not be able to reverse it if you are not satisfied with the final look. Enamel, once removed, cannot grow again, and you may be permanently stuck with the same veneers.
Veneers are not always a good choice
If you have gum disease, then veneers are not a good option. With infected gums or week teeth, the veneers would become loose and fall off. A specialist would do a thorough exam before applying veneers and would never suggest having veneers if teeth or gums have an infection.
