It is rare that veneers will fall off, but can easily be glued back on as opposed to if the veneer chips or breaks.
Do Porcelain Veneers Fall Off?
Much research in aesthetic dentistry over the last 20 years has looked into why any treatment should fail. One of the main concerns has been whether veneers come off or why they may have weakened in the first place. Numerous technological advancements and improved techniques mean that the bonding agents used to cement veneers are extremely strong. This means that it is unlikely that a veneer should come off.
Reasons veneers might fall off
Bite abnormalities
The top and bottom teeth should work harmoniously to create a stable bite. If there are any discrepancies, then they can cause unnecessary forces to be applied to different teeth.
If any pre-existing conditions like bruxism (tooth grinding), gum disease, or tooth decay exist, this needs to be managed as part of the overall treatment plan to prevent damage to the veneers down the line.
Before veneers are fitted, a specialist dentist must examine the state of your oral health, hygiene and the condition of its foundation before prescribing them.
