How do you know when your veneers need to be replaced?

Signs your porcelain veneers need to be replaced

  1. Chips, cracks, or other types of damage to the veneers.
  2. Decay or damage to the underlying tooth structure.
  3. Lifting of the veneer from the tooth surface.
  4. Staining or discoloration of the dental veneers.
  5. Gum recession that exposes the underlying root structure.

Should veneers be replaced over time?

Having dental veneers fit by qualified cosmetic dentists such as those at The Dental Boutique means you can expect them to last a long time. Though they're not immortal, veneers are considered a permanent fixture, and they could last 10-30 years when properly looked after.
