Yes you can get it re-bonded. If it hasn’t been that long from when you had it bonded, the dentist may replace it for no charge, since it fell out. If it has been a while there might be a charge because it isn’t meant to last forever.
If they re-bond it and it falls out again and again a crown may be indicated instead of bonding.
Good luck!
you go to the dentist
You can get the bonding redone. You can also consider a dental crown, where the tooth gets ground down to a stump, and then the crown is shaped all around and cemented. It’s more extreme but lasts a long time.
you get it rebonded and it wont fall out again
be sensitive to what u eat
I had this happen, I went back to the dentist and they put a stronger bonding on it.
