How long do veneers last for?

Q.
I had six veneers 5 years ago, they have all fell off numerous times, but touch wood not for the last 2 years. Can you tell me how long I should expect them to last as they are now looking worn?
A.
Most veneers last 10 years or more depending on the biting forces and how well they are controlled.
The fact that they have worn may be due to a bite alignment that needs to be investigated.
