How Is Tooth Enamel Loss Treated? Treatment of tooth enamel loss depends on the problem. Sometimes tooth bonding is used to protect the tooth and increase cosmetic appearance. If the enamel loss is significant, the dentist may recommend covering the tooth with a crown or veneer. The crown may...

At first, the dentist will check and examine your tooth. To prepare a tooth for a veneer, your dentist will remove the enamel from the tooth surface, which is an amount nearly equal to the thickness of the veneer to be added to thetoothsurface. Next, your dentist will make an impression...
Teeth become darker as a physiological age change, this may be partly caused by the laying down of secondary dentine, incorporation of extrinsic stains and gradual wear of enamel allowing a greater influence on colour of the underlying dentine. Also, and to be discussed further, toothwear and...
Treatment for a broken or chipped tooth will depend on how severely it is damaged. If only a small piece of enamel broke off, the repair can usually be done simply in one office visit. A badly damaged or broken tooth may require a more lengthy and costly procedure. Here are some ways ...
Cervical resorption, which involves the loss of hard tooth tissue at the cementoenamel junction due to various factors, poses a challenge in avoiding resorption progression and achieving functional and aesthetically pleasing restoration. Intraoral conditions limit the field of vision and operating space, ...
If the mints — and the toothpaste and gels that the team plans to develop next — work as described, they would represent a huge leap forward in dental care and maintenance because they shift the focus from enamel preservation to enamel restoration. ...
For its role in combatting cariogenic biofilms, we investigated its antibacterial activity, biofilm targeting, and restoration effect. The rodent cariogenic model confirms topical treatment with PMs@NaF-SAP potently inhibits biofilm formulation and acid damage of tooth enamel to efficiently prevent the ...
As your tooth continues to break down, the likelihood that you’ll need a dental crown placed only goes up, and since it’s a more complex restoration, it will cost more and require removal of existing enamel. Think of dental fillings as a preventive measure. What is the Treatment Process...
