If you recently had porcelain veneers, crowns, or a bridge with an artificial tooth placed, you are no doubt enjoying your beautiful new smile. But nothing lasts forever, especially without proper care. It is easy to think all your dental problems have been solved, relax your cleaning habits, and then a new crisis is triggered.
The good news is that if you are rigorous about cleaning and have a dental exam at least twice a year, you may never again need a cavity removed, periodontal surgery done, or a veneer, crown, or bridge placed again.
