Can Veneers Be Whitened? 

Are you considering
teeth whitening but have veneers? Doctor Bilski explains the details and
clarifies how veneers interact with tooth whitening
procedures.

Understanding Veneers and
Teeth Whitening

• Veneers and
  Whitening: Veneers are thin, customized shells that cover the front surface
  of teeth. Unlike natural teeth, veneers do not respond to traditional tooth
  whitening gels and procedures. Therefore, if you whiten your teeth, your
  veneers won’t undergo a color change.
• Addressing the Mismatch:
  If you want whiter teeth and currently have veneers, you have options. You
  can consult with a dental professional like Doctor Bilski to remove the old
  veneers and replace them with new ones that match your desired tooth
  color.
• Natural Teeth
  Whitening: Tooth whitening works by lightening the color of natural teeth. If
  you have veneers and your natural teeth are situated behind them, the
  whitening agent can brighten those natural teeth. This, in turn, enhances the
  appearance of your veneers, making them appear whiter because of the brighter
  natural teeth behind them.

Veneers themselves cannot be
whitened directly. The focus of tooth whitening treatments is the natural
teeth. If you are considering veneers or already have them, remember that
they are a cosmetic enhancement designed to address issues like color
changes, shape corrections, and gap closures.
