The dental surgeon Rogério Penna explains how to avoid imperfections and preserve the color of the lenses
Dental contact lenses have become one of the most sought after options for those who want a beautiful and harmonious smile. But a common question among patients is: can they change color over time?
Specialized advice
According to the dental surgeon Rogério Penna, the duration and aesthetics of contact lenses are directly connected to the quality of the material used and patient care. “The contact lenses are made of porcelain, a material resistant to the point that maintains the original color for many years,” explains the expert.
However, the dentist warns that external factors can compromise the appearance of the lens if they are not porcelain. “The excessive consumption of pigmented foods such as coffee, red wine and dark sauces, as well as smoke, can cause slight darkening on the surface, especially if there is no good oral hygiene,” he says.
Tips to maintain the quality of the lenses
Another important point is the quality of the material. “The porcelain lenses do not change in color, but made of compound resin have a greater tendency to stain over time,” says Rogério Penna.
To always keep them beautiful, the expert advises:
- Good oral hygiene, with brushing and interdental floss regularly.
- Avoid excess food and very pigmented drinks.
- Regular consultations for the dentist, for polishing and maintenance.
“The professional sequel is essential to ensure that the lenses remain aesthetic and functional over the years”, concludes Rogério Penna.
