How long do dental veneers last?

Dental veneers are a permanent cosmetic solution meant to last for significant lengths of time. For most, veneers will last around 10 years before they need to be replaced. Some patients have veneers for upwards of 20 years with proper care before they need to be replaced.

There are several options for veneers. Three you’ll commonly encounter are:
