I'm on holiday & the veneer on my front tooth has broken off. It's left half of my discoloured tooth behind it exposed. (photo)

Question

Can I have a temporary filler put on this until I get home.

Sarah Thompson, DMD · Answer

If your dentist offered some type of warranty for his/her work, I would recommend getting dental bonding/white filling done to temporarily cover the problem tooth until you are able to return home to have the veneer replaced.  If your dentist did not offer a warranty on the veneer, I would recommend having another veneer placed and avoid the extra cost of getting the dental bonding.  Good luck and I hope this helps. Follow me if you have more questions.Sarah Thompson, DMD

You can get a new porcelain veneer or crown done in one day.  No need for temps.    It's an easy process and with our I house lab it is done daily.
