I have a porcelain veneer. It think the bonding agent is starting to chip off.?

Question

It's only five years old. I might floss it too much, but when I floss it snags on the back of the veneer. Anyway, I moved away from the dentist that placed it... Can a dentist grind the jagged (sharp) part to smooth the back without damaging the porcelain veneer and its bond? The jagged edge is on the back part of the veneer. I'm afraid it will lose its stability. And is this a bad sign for a porcelain veneer? Thanks.

M H,
IT'S IMPORTANT TO SMOOTH OUT ANY IRREGULAR SURFACES, OTHERWISE THROUGH CONSTANTLY HAVING THE FLOSS CATCH ON THIS THE VENEER BOND CAN BECOME LOOSE.
