The confidence that a beautiful smile can afford you will improve your social life, dating life, and may even enhance your career prospects!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With all the ways that your life will change with your veneers, you might wonder whether your diet will have to shift as well. It\u2019s a good question; here\u2019s what you should know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will I Have to Change My Diet for my Veneers?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers are fairly strong and are attached to your teeth with a powerful dental adhesive. That means that your diet won\u2019t necessarily have to change much when you get your new smile; most of the foods that you ate before are still on the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there are some foods that can be particularly problematic for your veneers, and that you might want to avoid:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Hard foods, like rock candy or popcorn kernels, can potentially crack or dislodge your veneers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Alcoholic beverages can potentially weaken the cement that attaches the veneers to the teeth and should therefore be consumed in moderation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tobacco products can both weaken the cement on your veneers and stain your restoration.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dark foods and liquids, like coffee and wine, can stain your veneers if used in excess. They should therefore only be taken in moderation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Temporary Veneers and a Soft Food Diet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically, veneers aren\u2019t made in your dentist\u2019s office; they\u2019re constructed in a specialized lab. This means that there\u2019s typically a gap in time between when enamel is removed from your tooth and when you finally get your veneer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the meantime, most people will wear a temporary veneer, which is adhered to the tooth with a much weaker cement than your permanent veneers. This being the case, it\u2019s often necessary to adopt a soft food diet while you have your temporaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this can sound restrictive, there are plenty of softer foods that you can incorporate into your diet for a few weeks:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Scrambled eggs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Smoothies<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mashed potatoes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Oatmeal<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hummus<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cottage cheese<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tofu<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pasta<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Refried beans<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pudding<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Stick to these staples and you should be able to keep your temporary veneers for quite a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Our Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Welcome to Crovatto &amp; Edwards Family Dentistry!
