What do if you break your veneer

Emergency info

See a dentist now if

It’s recommended that you see a dentist as soon as possible to preserve the integrity of your underlying tooth, which will be left exposed if the veneer has fallen off.

As a thin portion of enamel has been removed, your tooth might feel sensitive. However, that said, a broken veneer is not always classed as an emergency, as the underlying tooth is not in immediate or serious danger.

But we understand for aesthetic purposes that a broken veneer should be treated quickly and efficiently so you can progress with your day-to-day.

We particularly advise seeing the dentist if:

  • Most of the veneer has fractured, broken, cracked, crazed or chipped.
  • A portion of the veneer has broken off.
  • The veneer has completely debonded (come off).

Common causes

  • Consequences of poor design or placement.
  • You grind your teeth
  • You’ve bitten too forcefully into hard foods.
  • Trauma or sudden impact to the face
  • As a result of tooth decay underneath the veneer.
  • Veneers are old and have reached their time of replacement.

How it's typically treated

Veneers, in many circumstances are not repairable. Therefore, a damaged veneer should be replaced if polishing or re-cementing a fractured veneer is not possible.

Temporary fixes can include temporary placements or composite bonding while we make your new veneer, which can be as fast as 24 hours.

Steps to take if the veneer has fallen off

  • First, make sure to carefully remove the remains of the veneer from your mouth and store the pieces safely, for example, wrapped in tissue. If the veneer is intact, we might be able to reattach it.
  • Investigate the sharpness of your tooth, if it’s irritating your cheeks, tongue or gums make sure to come in faster, or dental wax can be purchased to stop the irritation momentarily.
  • In the time it takes to reach your appointment, limit the biting forces, chewing and your tooth’s exposure.
  • As enamel has been removed, limit your exposure to hot or cold beverages or air as this could trigger sensitivity.
