Since these veneers are made in 3D, they have a limited lifespan. Although its life is long and sometimes it can reach almost ten years, in any case, it may be damaged and reduce the beauty of the tooth. The lifespan of laminate or veneer depends on many factors, of which the accuracy of its manufacturers is only one of them.
The most important factor to increase the lifespan of veneers is to maintain them well. This maintenance includes staying away from substances such as cigarettes and alcohol, not chewing very hard substances, not using very hot or very cold drinks, and using a toothbrush and dental floss continuously, two to three times a day. However, although many people take care of their laminate, it still suffers.
The fact is that tooth decay does not depend only on the presence of plaque. Some people mistakenly think that a laminate is a new tooth and try to bite down on hard material after applying the laminate. Laminate is just a method of tooth beauty and makes the tooth look like a natural tooth in terms of beauty, but it will not necessarily increase the durability of your tooth. Cracking or rotting of the laminate after a few years is also normal.
