Porcelain tooth facets are common in creating new smiles and smile makeovers. With porcelain tooth facets, you can have the smile of your dreams in a very short period of time.
Approximately one week after the placement of your tooth facets you have to asked to return to the doctor for a treatment evaluation. This visit is extremely important.

Once placed your tooth facets are very strong and will resist most of the forces placed upon them by a normal diet. Porcelain has great crushing strength but poor tensile strength. Therefore, you should avoid anything that will tend to twist the veneers. Opening pistachio nuts with your teeth or chewing on bones or jelly apples is probably not a good idea. As with most things, common sense should prevail.

Most dentists will show you a shade chart, for example the Vita shade guide, for you to pick from. Keep in mind, with a good cosmetic dentist this is merely a starting point. Other considerations when determining the color of future tooth facets for each patient are your complexion, hair color, the color of your natural teeth and even your eye color.
Normal diet should pose no problem at all. Just please avoid anything that will tend to bend or twist your tooth facets.
Finally, a whiter smile gives people to whom you are speaking a place to focus on and gives you a friendlier appearance.
