<\/span>The durability of composite veneers depends on material quality, oral hygiene, and lifestyle. Over time, composites may wear or discolor (especially with coffee, tea, or smoking), so periodic maintenance and polishing are recommended. With proper care, composite veneers can last <\/span>5\u20137 years<\/b> before renewal or retouching may be needed.<\/span><\/p>\n
