Veneers are a popular option for achieving a perfect smile, but there are some common myths about them. The document debunks five myths: that veneers can't look natural, that they weaken natural teeth, that they stain worse than natural teeth, that they are painful to get, and that natural teeth will be filed away. In reality, veneers can create a seamless, natural-looking smile and actually strengthen teeth without causing pain or removing much enamel. While horror stories exist, speaking to a professional can provide accurate information about the safe, successful veneer procedure.

1. Having the perfect smile takes work, and there are times when you’ll need to seek out some help in
order to achieve it. There are lots of options out there, but one of the most popular is veneers. A lot of
people like to get their veneers in Turkey as they have highly skilled dentists there who specialize in the
procedure. However, veneers do have some stigma attached to them. So, here are five veneer myths
completely debunked!
Veneers Can’t Look Natural
This isn’t true at all! Nowadays, veneers are tailored to each person, so they fit your mouth perfectly.
You won’t be seeing any giant white chompers in your mouth in this day and age. Veneers are now
designed to give you a seamless smile that fits your jaw and matches any teeth you may be keeping.
New veneers are also a more natural color, so they won’t blind anybody when you smile. So, no matter
what type of teeth you have, you can be assured that your veneers will appear natural and be better
versions of your old teeth.
Veneers Weaken Your Natural Teeth
It’s a common mistake that people believe veneers will weaken your natural teeth. In fact, it’s quite the
opposite. Having veneers can strengthen the teeth that you have underneath them and prevent them
from having to be removed. Veneers are extremely durable, so they make your teeth a lot more
resistant and prevent any further damage from happening to them. With proper care, veneers can be
even stronger than your natural teeth, and they can do so without damaging them.
Veneers Stain Worse Than Natural Teeth
Your natural teeth are very porous, which is why they stain when you do things like drink coffee.
However, veneers are made from a completely different material, most of the time it being porcelain,
making them smooth. As veneers aren’t porous, they don’t absorb any of the stainings that your natural

2. teeth would. This means you’ll be able to maintain a pearly white smile for way longer if you have
veneers. So, this myth is definitely not true!
Veneers Are Painful
Everyone hears horror stories of people being in unbearable pain when having veneers fitted. But these
are nothing more than what they are, stories. Typically, the procedure is carried out under anesthetic so
you won’t feel a thing. Afterward, your mouth may feel sore, but veneers aren’t invasive, so the pain is
minimal. The only time people feel pain is if they’ve had to have other procedures done before having
the veneers fitted. But this isn’t the veneers that have made you sore; it’s the previous procedures.
My Natural Teeth Will Be Filed Away
There are always pictures floating about on the internet of people having their teeth filed down to tiny
pegs before having the veneers fitted, and it’s enough to scare even the bravest away. However, this
scaremongering doesn’t have any truth to it at all. Only a tiny amount of enamel needs to be removed
for the veneers to be fitted. The teeth are filed a small amount to make them rough enough for the
bonding glue to adhere to them. So, there’s no need for your teeth to be filed away and destroyed.
Veneers are used to enhance your teeth, not replace them. Although there are some myths about
veneers, none of them are true, and you’re better off speaking to a professional instead of believing
everything you see online. Veneers are a successful procedure that many people have with no troubling
aftercare or upkeep, making them an excellent option for those who want to restore their teeth. So, the
next time you hear someone quoting one of the myths above, you can correct them and help stop the
spread of misinformation.
