It seems like my veneers have gotten slightly darker. Is there any way to go about whitening them? Please help! Thank you!
Answer: Veneers Porcelain veneers are not porous and fairly color stable meaning they do not absorb stains readily. They can however accumulate very light superficial staining at a much slower rate than your natural teeth. This can be oxidized with whitening gel at your dentists off. The actual color of the original porcelain will not change. If you feel they are too dark you can consider having them replaced with a lighter shade. Also your dentist will check to make sure there is no leakage at the margin of the veneers causing them to discolor underneath. Best of luck and follow us for more information!

Answer: Veneers should be Color and shade Fast, if they are darkening this may be signs of trouble Porcelain veneers are stain resistant and should not change in color. If it seems like the veneers are getting darker, many times this is a sign the underlying tooth is darkening and other times the space between the veneer and natural tooth is open and perhaps the veneer margins are leaking yielding a darker veneer, In both of these instances a new veneer(s) is needed to correct the discoloring and integrity of the veneer.

Answer: Whitening Veneers Is Not Possible
Porcelain veneers will not change color and can't be bleached. If you feel that they have turned darker you either have leakage underneath the veneers or the natural tooth is turning dark under the veneers. Either of these caused can only be corrected by replacing the veneers. Good luck.
