Will coffee, wine, or smoking stain my veneers?

Short answerHigh-quality ceramic veneers are highly resistant to staining from substances like coffee, wine, and tobacco.

  • Unlike porous natural tooth enamel, the smooth, non-porous surface of the ceramic does not easily absorb pigments, helping it maintain its shade.
  • However, the bonding material used to attach the veneer can be susceptible to slight staining along the edges over time.
  • Good oral hygiene, including regular brushing and professional cleanings, is crucial for minimizing any potential discoloration.
  • Ask your dentist for specific maintenance advice.
