New veneer keeps falling off

    Had veneer replaced on front tooth at the end of Feb as the one that was there 13 years cracked and fell of, the new one fell off 2 days ago :( and the dentist re-applied it today, at no extra charge.. It has just now fallen off again!!! :eek:, I am hoping the dentist will see me tomorrow as I look a sight! I have an appointment on Monday to do another veneer on the tooth beside veneerless one.
    He said today it was a failure to bond for some reason?? I understand this can happen but am wondering what happens now? will it rebond, if not do I need an alternative, will this cost (veneers aren't cheap) And should I get the second tooth done???
    Very frustrated!!! Any advice???

    A veneer that debonds cannot be rebonded properly because it will not fit correctly. Sounds like a crown might be a better option, your bite may be an issue. Ask you dentist is there a more durable option.

    Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is foolish.

    Thanks for the reply, you are right, it now needs a crown? Strange the dentist didn't suggest a crown to replace initial veneer to begin with?? Anyway am back on Monday for prep for crown and veneer on other tooth.. No charge for crown replacement.. Just a pain, 6 visits for the one tooth.. But at least there is no extra cost...
