✅ FAQ

  • Q1. How long do porcelain veneers last?
    A. On average     10–15 years, sometimes longer with excellent oral care.
  • Q2. Do veneers damage natural teeth?
    A. A thin layer of enamel is removed, which is irreversible. However, it does not weaken teeth significantly when performed properly.
  • Q3. Can veneers be whitened later?
    A. No. Porcelain is stain-resistant and color-stable. If you want whiter veneers later, they need replacement.
  • Q4. Are veneers painful?
    A. The procedure is minimally invasive. Some temporary sensitivity may occur, but pain is rare.
  • Q5. What is the difference between porcelain and composite veneers?
    A. Porcelain is stronger, more natural-looking, and longer-lasting. Composite is cheaper but less durable (5–7 years lifespan).
  • Q6. How many visits are needed for porcelain veneers in Seoul?
    A. Usually     2–3 visits: consultation, preparation + temporary veneers, and final bonding.
  • Q7. Who is not a good candidate for veneers?
    A. Patients with severe tooth decay, gum disease, or insufficient enamel thickness may not be suitable.
  • Q8. Do veneers require special care?
    A. No special care, but good oral hygiene (brushing, flossing) and avoiding very hard foods is recommended.
  • Q9. Can porcelain veneers fix gaps or crooked teeth?
    A. Yes, for mild misalignment or spacing. Severe cases may need orthodontics.
  • Q10. Are porcelain veneers safe for foreigners visiting Seoul?
    A. Yes. Many international patients receive veneers in Seoul with English consultation and follow-up support.
