A reliable way to get a gorgeous smile is with veneers<\/a>. Over eight million are placed every year, meaning countless patients are showing off a grin they feel confident in. However, many people often wonder whether this cosmetic work causes lasting tooth sensitivity. This can make you hesitant to choose this service for yourself, so here\u2019s what you should know.<\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Do Veneers Make Teeth Sensitive?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In short, you will likely have some slight sensitivity after both your temporary and final veneers are placed. However, this is expected to happen. A small amount of enamel will be removed before this treatment is placed. This helps your results sit flush against your grin, but it does expose the dentin underneath. The second layer of your teeth has channels that go down to the nerve, so anything hot or cold can trigger them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The good news is that this is short-lived. It should get better and go away a few days after your visits. So, you\u2019ll be able to show off a comfortable smile without worrying about lasting discomfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
