Porcelain Veneers Last Longer
Porcelain veneers are one of the most long-lasting procedures in dentistry. Although people think porcelain would be fragile, the one used in veneers is actually an advanced ceramic that is designed to last. Dental bonding may last for a couple of years, but porcelain veneers can last a decade or more.
Porcelain Veneers Look Better
Dental bonding is a plastic material, and it can’t help but look like plastic. Although it is initially polished to look like natural tooth enamel, it’s part of the longevity problems of dental bonding that it tends to wear down and may lose its polish quickly, which leads to it looking like dull plastic again.
Porcelain veneers can also be more accurately color-matched with your natural teeth to give you optimal results.
Porcelain Veneers Don’t Stain
Porcelain veneers are impermeable and don’t let staining molecules inside. This keeps them looking the same color as the day they were placed for their entire lifetime. The only time they might stain is if you damage or scratch them by not following care instructions.
What Makes Dental Bonding Popular
Dental bonding does have some advantages that account for its popularity. It can be performed quickly, and it’s cheap. This makes it the procedure of choice for people who don’t want to invest the time and money into getting the best results.
