My CEREC Veneer Fell Out And Broke My Original Tooth. Should I Get A Dental Implant Or A Bridge?

Q.
Hi there, was looking for some kind of advice from your good self.
I have an existing dental implant where my front tooth should be – I have had this for nearly 8 years. The next tooth to that one had a CEREC veneer placed on on it due to a little discolouration  following root canal treatment when I was a teenager. The CEREC veneer unfortunately fell out after 8 months and it snapped my own original tooth which I was very upset about. Do you think it would be wise now to get a dental implant or would a bridge be better? Many thanks, Leeann.

Hi Leann. I would opt for another implant if possible. This is because having a bridge fitted usually involves drilling down other teeth, so the implant procedure would be more appropriate for you. Thank you for your question and good luck!
