Chewing excessively hard food on the teeth (hard candy, ice, nuts, etc). The veneer/crown is stronger than natural teeth but can still break with extreme force.
Maintenance:
Please take care of your new beautiful teeth. Proper brushing, flossing, and regular 6-month cleanings are important.
Adjustment:
Once you have your veneers bonded to your teeth, it may take your mouth a few days to adjust to having them in your mouth. Your bite may feel different, but this awkwardness should go away after a week.

If you had a bridge done, it is very important you use super floss so you can go under the bridge to help keep it clean.
