In cosmetic dentistry, veneers are one of the finest options on offer. Patients can generally trust the shells<\/a> to fix tooth stains, cracks, chips, and even misalignments. Still, these points don\u2019t address a big and crucial question: What are the potential risks of getting veneers? To know if treatment is worthwhile, you\u2019ll want to confirm its possible downsides. Your Jacksonville dentist can help you do just that, so keep reading to learn four possible side effects of veneer treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Tooth Sensitivity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Though they usually don\u2019t, veneers can cause tooth sensitivity at times. You\u2019ll want to note that effect before any possible treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It comes down to how teeth are \u201cprepped\u201d for veneers. Since the shells won\u2019t fit well on their own, a dentist must remove some of your tooth enamel before placement. This process can make some teeth sensitive by exposing their underlying dentin. If that happens, a patient must compensate with pain medicines, follow-up treatments, and similar methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gum Inflammation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Veneers don\u2019t affect your gums when they work well. That said, they could inflame your gum tissues if your treatment goes a bit sideways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite their good looks, veneers aren\u2019t natural parts of your mouth; they\u2019re foreign objects. That means your gums may need time to adjust to their presence. If the initial placement was too rough, your veneers could even cause some minor gum inflammation. You\u2019d then need to attend a checkup with your dentist to confirm the cause of the inflamed tissue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cracked or Chipped Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since veneers use porcelain as their material, they rarely ever crack or chip. Still, they could become cracked or chipped if their placement isn\u2019t good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t forget that dentists are human; they can make mistakes and errors. Given this fact, they could place your veneers poorly for various reasons. One effect of such misplacement would be chipping and cracks in the shells, as well as rough edges and overhangs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tooth Pulp Injury<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While veneers shouldn\u2019t damage your smile, that doesn\u2019t mean they never could. Treatment has a risk of causing tooth pulp injuries in some cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you know how dentists must remove some of your enamel to place veneers? If that removal isn\u2019t done well, you could suffer an injury to your tooth pulp. That would cause major tooth damage that requires a root canal, tooth extraction, or some other procedure. If you want to avoid that risk, getting a dental crown instead of a veneer is the best option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, there are other potential risks of getting veneers. Just talk to your dental provider to learn about them in detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
