It may have caused some stains that you covered with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebrickdentalcare.com\/veneers.html\">veneers<\/a>. You have an aesthetic set of teeth that you love, but do you still need to be worried about any discoloration? Before you imagine the worst of cutting out your beloved brew, here is what to know about this drink and your cosmetic dental work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will My Veneers Stain?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally, veneers are made from porcelain. It\u2019s a sturdy material that can last for years to come while being stain-resistant. Unlike natural enamel, it\u2019s not porous, so dark-colored beverages won\u2019t be able to find their way into it and cause stains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That being said, the edges of your veneers or the bonding agent holding them in place can still get discolored. Although the shells may look pristine for longer, they can turn a bit yellow if you aren\u2019t careful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So, Can I Still Have Coffee?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The good news is that you can still have coffee, even if you have veneers. While they won\u2019t be able to get stained as fast, it\u2019s important to do your job in maintaining them. By enjoying this drink in moderation, you can limit how often it comes into contact with them. You can also follow these tips to keep your sips safe:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Use a straw when having it to avoid it touching your veneers as often.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Drink water afterward to wash away any lingering dark particles.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Brush your teeth 30 minutes after enjoying coffee to get rid of as many pigments as possible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stick to your routine cleanings; that way, minor stains can be polished away.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should I Call My Dentist About My Coffee Habits?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from being able to stain, coffee is an acidic drink. Over time, it can wear down the bonding agent that\u2019s holding your veneers in place. This generally isn\u2019t an issue if you stick to your oral hygiene, but it can be if you notice your cosmetic work is loose or dull. At this point, you should call your dentist. By setting up an appointment, you can get back to a renewed smile you love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although coffee can cause trouble for your veneers, follow the tips above, and you should likely have no issues. That way, you enjoy your pristine smile for longer while enjoying your favorite brew without worry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebrickdentalcare.com\/admasu-gizachew.html\">Dr. Admasu Gizachew<\/a> earned his dental doctorate from New York University.
