Will my dentist try to redesign the veneer or just put it back on and hope for the best. Is this common?
Answer: A thorough reexamination of the tooth, the veneer and the bite needs to be completed prior to deciding A thorough reexamination of the tooth, the veneer and the bite needs to be completed prior to deciding if the same veneer can just be rebonded.The number one reason I have seen that veneers debond is due to a heavy and improper bite on that veneer/tooth.If a bite adjustment is warranted and possible then the veneer many times can just be rebonded and have a long healthy life.However, if the tooth was left too short after preperation, or if the tooth has broken then a crown may be indicated on this tooth. If the porcelain on the veneer is chipped or in way is found to be distorted, then a new veneer would be needed.

Answer: How to handle a veneer that pops off If the veneer fits well and your dentist feels that he/she can cleanout any residual cement without damaging the veneer then it seems plausible that re-cementing would be the first step.It is possible that the surface somehow contacted your salivaand reduced its ability to bond to the tooth. Your smile does lookvery nice and I am sure your dentist is highly capable to rectify this.A bite check could also offer some clues as to why it became dislodged.

Answer: Different solutions depending on the cause Hi! As mentioned in the previous post, veneers shouldn't just fall off and if they do, the reason for the failure needs to be determined in order to know how to proceed with fixing the situation. It could be that improper bonding technique was used (too much moisture, failure to properly prepare/silanate the unit), and in such a case you may be able to recement the same veneer. It could also be that the tooth has more dentin exposed which affects bonding, which may mean that tooth may be better off with a crown. Or it could be your occlusion (ie. your "bite") that needs to be adjusted. So there's no simple answer, but definitely return to your doctor and s/he should be able to fix your gorgeous new smile. Good luck!
