i had to get those redone or done again when i was oh goodness i was in my 50s so 15 to 17 years later i needed a redo because veneers don't typically last forever you they do have a shelf life if you're told otherwise i would be very cautious because they um get wear and tear unlike a lot of other parts of your body I had lighter type veneers.
I don't, I think he still might be practicing now, but I was supposed to be his first lumineer patient.
And lumineers were basically an overlay that you would put on your natural teeth so you didn't have to do a lot of prep.
Once we got in here, He saw that there was more prep than we did need than he previously thought.
So he had to do some prep, which means wearing down the surface of the teeth that you're covering.
If you plan to get dental work like veneers or lumineers, My opinion, and I had this discussion with Paul, Dr. Barganier.
He said that he will get patients coming in that want their second set and that whoever did their first set of veneers or lumineers won't.
did such aggressive prep work that there was basically nothing for him to work with.
So be very, very aware that there's only so much tooth you can wear down and take off to prep for veneers.
And if you're ever going to go back for a second set, make sure your first dentist is more on the conservative side.
And I'm so thankful that Dr. Barganier was because he's done two excellent, excellent procedures on me in the top 10.
And I will say that's probably one of the most dramatic things that I ever did.
