my veneer has fallen out three times

Q. I had a veneer fitted on one of my front teeth about three years ago. The veneer has fallen out three times since and my dentist keeps cementing it back in. Are there any other options, as it is obviously inconvienient when it falls out, or is my dentist doing something wrong? Someone has suggested getting a crown.

A. If the veneer is debonding cleanly there is probably a fault in the bonding process, Correct the fault and the veneer shuld stay on. If the Veneer is fracturing you may need to examine the loading.
