These thin shells of porcelain are the secret to the picture-perfect smiles of celebrities like Hilary Duff and Miley Cyrus. While the 10+ year lifespan, lifelike appearance, and incredible durability continue to make them a popular smile-enhancing solution year after year, many patients have one important question on their mind: Will my diet change if I get veneers? Here\u2019s the answer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So, Will My Diet Change If I Get Veneers?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to their high-quality makeup, veneers don\u2019t come with an extensive list of food restrictions. With that being said, like your natural teeth, they aren\u2019t indestructible. So, it is a good idea to avoid certain foods that can chip, crack, or otherwise damage your new and improved smile. Therefore, make sure to sparingly indulge in extremely hard foods, dark liquids, and alcoholic beverages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6 Tips for Keeping Your Veneers in Good Condition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Limiting potentially damaging foods and beverages is a great place to start, but that\u2019s not the only thing you can do to keep your veneers in pristine condition. To prolong the lifespan of yours, make sure to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Brush your teeth for two minutes at least twice a day.<\/li><li>Treat flossing as important as brushing.<\/li><li>Use mouthwash regularly.<\/li><li>Avoid poor dental habits, like smoking, chewing on ice, and using your teeth as tools.<\/li><li>Implement a vitamin-rich diet.<\/li><li>Drink plenty of water.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Your Dentist Can Help<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your six-month dental checkups and cleanings are extremely important, especially if you have veneers. After all, while the veneers themselves are stain-resistant and cavity-resilient, the underlying teeth certainly aren\u2019t. Fortunately, your dentist can conduct a comprehensive oral exam on a biannual basis to ensure there are no dental issues present, like severe decay or gum disease. If there is a concern, they can intervene in the early stages, preventing extensive restorative work down the line. Plus, the professional cleaning portion of your bi-yearly appointments thoroughly cleans every nook and cranny of your mouth, preventing problems from developing in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers can fix everything from misshaped teeth to stubborn stains \u2013 and you don\u2019t have to give up your normal diet in the process! Just make sure to limit your intake of foods and beverages that could potentially cause damage to keep them in pristine condition for years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edgewooddentalmc.com\/about-us.html\">Edgewood Dental<\/a>, we are proud to help our patients get the smile they\u2019ve always dreamed of in a warm, welcoming, modern dental atmosphere.
