How long do veneers last?

Porcelain or composite veneers typically last between 7 to 15 years, depending on several factors:

Types of Veneers & Their Lifespan

What Affects Veneer Longevity?

• Oral hygiene habits – Brushing twice daily and flossing helps protect the teeth underneath.

• Diet – Avoiding hard foods, ice, or biting nails can prevent chips or cracks.

• Grinding/Bruxism – Can wear down veneers faster; wearing a night guard helps.

• Dental care – Regular check-ups and cleanings are essential.

• Smoking & staining foods – Especially for composite veneers, can affect appearance over time.

Can Veneers Be Replaced?

Yes. Veneers are not reversible, but they can be replaced once they wear out, become damaged, or if you want a smile update.
