Having dental porcelain veneers doesn’t come without its disadvantages. For one, they are permanent and their removal is not an option once placed. Second, they can cause tooth sensitivity, and third, they can also be damaged if not taken care of properly.
Moreover, dental veneers cannot replace healthy teeth and gums and should never be placed to hide serious dental problems. Before veneers are considered, your dental health professional will make sure there are no underlying issues, like tooth decay and periodontal disease. Only after any issue has been removed, can you have your dental veneers placed.
Having said all that, veneers have cosmetic as well as restorative functions. They can also make teeth stronger. They can help strengthen weak teeth. So the answer is NO, dental veneers cannot ruin your natural teeth as long as you take proper care of them and have ruled out underlying issues before placing them.
Enjoy them for decades!
