my composite bonding to my front teeth has broken three times why is the bonding not working

Q. Hello Dr. Patel, I’ve done composite bonding to close the gap between my two front teeth in 2007. Since then, the bonding has broken out three times in the same spot. The dentist have seen me in 2007, 2008 and now 2009. Why is the bonding not working?

A. It is difficult to give you an answer without seeing you but clearly something is not working.  It could be that your lower teeth are biting against the fillings with too much force.  I can not really give you an exact answer without seeing you.
