Care & Durability


Instasmile veneers are designed with durability in mind, but just like any everyday essential, the way you care for them makes a big difference. With the right habits, you can keep your new smile looking and feeling its best for as long as possible.

In this guide, we’ll cover the questions our customers ask most often - from how long veneers last, to eating and drinking with confidence, to simple cleaning and care routines.

How Long Do Snap-on Veneers Last?

Average Lifespan

The depends on how often you wear them and how well they’re maintained.

Factors That Affect Durability

  • Cleaning routines
  • Storage habits
  • Heavy wear and tear
  • Pets attracted to saliva
  • Loss and accidental damage
  • Self Repair
  • Soaking in Boiling Water

Can You Eat and Drink with Snap-on Veneers?

You can drink and eat most foods when wearing Instasmile snap-on veneers.

However, very hard, sticky, and crunchy foods should be eaten with caution, as they can cause the appliance to move or even break in extreme cases.

Instasmile has been tested for stain resistance by a leading university against a number of foods and liquids such as coffee, red wine, turmeric, and Coca-Cola, passing with flying colours in all areas.

Are Snap-on Veneers Safe for My Teeth and Gums?

Instasmile snap-on veneers are made with comfort and safety in mind for every customer.

Crafted bespoke to your teeth and gums, you don’t have to worry about this smile solution affecting your natural teeth or gum health.

Will they cause irritation?

Using our unique and easy-to-use at-home impression kit, you can get snap-on veneers that fit perfectly – you’ll barely even notice you’re wearing them.

However, in the first few hours of wearing your Instasmile, like with any other dental product, there may be an adjustment period as you get used to wearing the product. Take some time to get used to the new addition, and before you know it, it will be part of you.

Dental Safety Reassurance

Instasmile snap-on veneers require no alterations to your natural teeth – unlike cosmetic procedures that involve the removal of enamel or filing down the natural teeth with painful drilling.

How to Clean Snap-on Veneers

To ensure your product lasts as long as possible, it is important that you look after both the snap-on veneers and your natural teeth.

We recommend that you:

  • Rinse with warm (never hot) water after use
  • Use a soft-bristle toothbrush to remove residue, cleaning twice daily
  • Disinfect regularly with a dental cleaner
  • Store in the vanity case provided
  • Avoid leaving in direct sunlight for prolonged periods
  • Keep away from pets (they are attracted to the saliva)
  • Never attempt to self repair as it will void your warranty

What Do I Do If My Snap-on Veneers Get Damaged?

We understand that our smiles are important and that's why we underpin our quality with a comprehensive .

  • 14-day manufacturer’s warranty: Covers any manufacturing defects to ensure the fit is secure and comfortable.
  • 3-year extended warranty: Comprehensive, no quibble warranty is included with every purchase (up to one remake per arch ordered). Contact us within 14 days with the requested evidence. This excludes fit issues that were not reported within the first 14 days.

What if My Warranty is Expired or Claims are Used?

If your warranty has expired or is no longer valid, you can at a discounted rate, provided we still have your dental impressions on file and your dental profile hasn’t changed. Otherwise, you’ll need to place a new order online.

When Will I Need to Repurchase Snap-on Veneers?

If you want to experiment with a new shade or simply have a spare pair, you can as long as your dental profile hasn’t changed.

If anything has happened to your smile since your last order, you will need to complete the impression process again to get a comfortable and natural-looking veneer.
