Porcelain veneers – Demystified (cont.)  Disadvantages  The major disadvantage of these veneers is probably their permanency. You need a very good dentist to fit them because you might have to live with bad veneers for a very long time. Overtime they may chip or crack and this is not repairable. You can only replace the whole veneer which is a costly procedure. They are more costly than composite resin fillings. The fact that part of your enamel is removed might make you sensitive to hot or cold food and beverages. Another major disadvantage is despite porcelain veneers are very expensive, they can still stain and get germ diseases.
