No enamel left

[SamiE]

I'm 36 years old and over the years the enamel on my teeth are wearing away, to the extent that now i almost have no enamel left on my teeth.

Im a bruxist and have a stressful life and this has led me to grind my teeth at night. My teeth are unsightly and sensitive to cold drinks.

Please tell me what i can do, what options do i have? Could I have my lost enamel replaced with porcelain veneers?

Hi,

Thank you for your question.

Porcelain veneers is one possible treatment option for you that not only fix the worn enamel problem but it can also correct the reduced height of your teeth due to the wear and bruxism. In addition to porcelain veneers there are alternative options also like composite veneers. What I suggest you to do is to come and see us and allow us to do an assessment of your teeth and see what would be the best possible solution for your problem.
