Just out of curiosity, how strong is temporary veneers/crowns? I got the instruction that I should avoid any stress. Since I only getting veneers/crowns for my 2 front teeth I can avoid this pretty good. But should I be worried that they can fall off just by pressing my tongue against them?
Answer: How strong are temporaries. Veneers are the weakest type of temporary because they are so thin. Different cements are used depending on how long they need to be in.The stronger the temporary cement the harder it is to remove later.When patients are in long term temporaries I utilize permanent cement.Ira L Shapira DDS, D,ABDSM, D,AAPM, FICCMOChair Alliance of TMD Organizations

Answer: Veneers if the 2 veneers are attached together, you will not have any problem, they have a temporary glue , but still will be a good solution , and in case those teeth come out, just put them in hot water for 10 seconds, and the temporary glue , will get soft again, and place them in, it will work.

Answer: Porcelain Veneers / Temporaries Over the course of my 30 year dental career, and having placed thousands of temporaries followed by porcelain veneers, I have been amazed at how long temporaries can last. I have had patients who began cosmetic treatment, and due to life events or unexpected travel, returned to my office after months, even a year or more, with their temporaries intact. I recall a patient who went on a business trip for a number of months, and upon his return, complained that the temporaries didn't hold up after 6 months. In general, my goal is for the temporaries to have a short lifespan, only until the permanent option is implemented. Removing temporaries should not be a difficult task, to insure no damage to the underlying tooth structures.Best of luck,James Asaf, DDS

Answer: Strength of Temporaries The strength of temporaries can vary depending on the process used. Temporaries aren't meant to hold up long term, so aren't as strong as your veneers will be.

Answer: Strength of Temporary Veneers Temporary are only temporary just like with a temporary crown. They are glued on and will stay on for a couple of weeks until you get your new veneers placed. I would just be careful and not eat an apple by using only your front teeth to bite into it! That is putting stress only on the front teeth and your temporary veneers.Just be mindful they are temporary and not permanent! You will do fine! Congratulations and I hope your new veneers look great!
