I have a tiny chip on my gum line of a veneer that was just placed today. I'm not sure if my dentist noticed or not.

He fooled around for a while removing some "stubborn cement" on that tooth and I think he chipped the veneer in the process. My question being, will this cause the veneer to pop off because now liquids have a chance to reach the cement and eat away at it? It's not noticeable at all, so I don't care from an aesthetic standpoint. I'm more worried about the longevity of this tooth that I just spent quite a bit of money on.
