New generation porcelain veneers last longer

Explaining black rims around porcelain veneers
When patients need to see a cosmetic dentist because of black rims around porcelain veneers; they do not understand why this has happened. The problem with darkening around the edges with porcelain veneers is often contamination. The bonding technique can fail if the edge of the veneer becomes contaminated with blood, spit, or fluids during the bonding process.

The modern veneers and dental bonding agents of today are less likely to present the same problem. It is very difficult to bond porcelain crowns and porcelain veneers at the gum line. This is why it is important to see a trained and qualified cosmetic dentist for restorative work. Patients not only express concerns about dark lines around their existing porcelain veneers, they are also concerned that if they redo their porcelain veneers they eventually will see the same dark, ugly line in time.
