Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Michael D. Kosdon

Sourced directly from Dr. Michael D. Kosdon's social posts and replies.

What is the required maintenance for porcelain veneers?
Veneers are maintained just like natural teeth; patients only need to brush and floss twice a day, with no additional maintenance required.
Source →
Do porcelain veneers damage natural teeth underneath?
Very little tooth structure needs to be removed for porcelain veneers, making it a conservative procedure that preserves natural tooth health.

How does Dr. Kosdon guide patients in choosing the right porcelain veneer shade?
Dr. Kosdon emphasizes that the number of veneers impacts color freedom; full sets (10 upper, 10 lower) allow any color, while two front teeth require blending with existing teeth. Skin tone and complexion are crucial, with darker skin making veneers appear whiter. For a natural look with darker complexions, he advises avoiding the whitest shades. Personality and patient expectations are also key. For a 'Hollywood smile' that 'pops,' a light bleached shade is chosen. For natural appearance, layered porcelain with different colors is preferred, and matching the whites of a patient's eyes is a great starting point; anything whiter can result in a 'fake Hollywood look'.

How long do porcelain veneers last?
Porcelain veneers do not have an expiration date. If properly done and well maintained, they can last potentially for decades.
