In the long run, what happens to the gums surrounding veneers and dental implants?

I've heard that gums do not fair well on and around artificial teeth. With an implant(s) and a crown(s), would the gums be expected to recede much more significantly than the gums surrounding natural teeth?





Is the chance for gum recession greater when a person has veneers?

depends on the materials used. you never want to put a non precious alloy in your mouth. by this i mean you need to request gold substructure on crowns. as for veneers i would say as long as they are done properly you shouldn't have a problem. if this is a concern, i would stay away from so called no prep veneers, i have read articles that say they can cause tissue recession, usually not that much but because they will be slightly thicker at the gumline, the gums will naturally pull away from that area
