Do you like to start your morning with a cup of hot or iced coffee? According to the National Coffee Association (NCS), about 62% of Americans drink coffee every day. For some, the day just doesn’t start out right without it. However, what if you have veneers<\/a>? Can you still enjoy your morning coffee, or do you need to choose something else to get your energy? Read on to learn more.<\/p>

Does Coffee Stain Veneers?<\/h2>

Veneers that are made from porcelain are stain-resistant. Unlike natural tooth enamel, porcelain is nonporous, so the particles in dark-colored foods and beverages have a harder time, slipping beneath the surface. Ultimately, you should be able to drink your morning coffee without worrying too much about staining your veneers. Just remember that veneers aren’t stain-proof, so excessive consumption of coffee and other dark-colored beverages, like tea and red wine, could still have a negative impact over time. It is always best to only drink these beverages in moderation.<\/p>

Can Veneers Be Whitened?<\/h2>

Whitening procedures don’t affect veneers even when they are stained! Ultimately, you need to have them replaced. However, the treatment will still affect the teeth surrounding the veneers, so the tone of your smile can become uneven. If you are planning on having both veneers and whitening done, you should have your teeth whitened first so your veneers can be color-matched to your teeth as they currently appear.<\/p>

How Can You Prevent Veneers from Staining?<\/h2>

Fortunately, there are steps you can take to keep your veneers from becoming discolored.<\/p>
