Hot and cold
Teeth are often more sensitive to heat and cold after preparation and fitting. Sip frozen drinks and hot coffee carefully.

Snorkel and mouthpieces
Gripping a snorkel mouthpiece with your front teeth can pop off a temporary veneer. Choose a glass-bottom boat or skip the snorkel until the finals are in.
