You can eat normally with veneers. It is advised to avoid biting into hard foods especially any biting motion that may act as a lever. We would suggest to avoid biting into items such as apples, chocolate bars and crusty rolls for example. Veneers do not break or fall off if you are careful with them and if they have been put on by an experienced dentist.

Porcelain/ceramic veneers do not stain as they have a shiny smooth surface. Composite veneers on the other hand are more prone to staining. Veneers can not be whitened. It is therefore necessary to make sure you choose a colour that you will be happy with long term.

Ceramic veneers will vary in price depending on the dentist and the technician who makes the veneers including all the appointments, preparation and fitting. An individual veneer may sometimes be more expensive than a set of veneers as it is harder for the dentist and technician to match an individual veneer to the neighbouring teeth. Before the veneers are actually fabricated, a diagnostic mock up of the end result may be required. No worries, the cost for this procedure is covered by Palio Faliro Whitening clinic.

There are two main types of veneer; eMax and empress. The dentist will be the best person to advise you on which would be better for you. EMax veneers are stronger and will be less likely to chip or break. Empress veneers may be more natural looking but will not be as strong as Emax.
