Reclaim Your Smile: Solutions for Worn & Damaged Teeth

Have you noticed your teeth becoming shorter, flatter, or more chipped over time? Tooth wear is a common condition that goes beyond simple aesthetics; it can lead to sensitivity, bite problems, and an increased risk of future fractures. At Veda Family Dentistry, we specialize in not only identifying the root cause of your tooth wear but also artfully rebuilding your smile to restore its original strength, function, and natural beauty.

What Causes Teeth to Wear Down?

Understanding the cause is the first step to a lasting solution. The most common reasons for tooth wear include:

  • Attrition (Teeth Grinding): Chronic teeth grinding or clenching (bruxism), often occurring unconsciously during sleep, can wear down the chewing surfaces of your teeth.

  • Erosion (Acid Wear): Frequent exposure to acid from sources like soda, citrus fruits, wine, or medical conditions such as acid reflux can chemically dissolve your tooth enamel.

  • Abrasion: This is physical wear caused by factors like using a hard-bristled toothbrush, aggressive brushing, or using your teeth as tools to open things.


Why Rebuilding Worn Teeth is Important

Ignoring progressive tooth wear can lead to more significant problems down the road. Addressing it can help you avoid:

  • Painful tooth sensitivity to hot and cold

  • A higher risk of cracks, chips, and fractures

  • An uneven or collapsed bite can lead to jaw pain (TMJ issues)

  • An aged or unhealthy smile appearance


Our Custom Solutions for Rebuilding Your Smile

After a thorough diagnosis, we will create a personalized plan to rebuild your teeth. This plan may involve one or more of the following treatments:

  • Dental Bonding: For minor wear, we can apply a tooth-colored composite resin to rebuild worn edges and restore the tooth’s original shape in a single visit.

  • Porcelain Veneers: To treat wear on the front teeth, thin shells of porcelain can be bonded to the surface, providing a beautiful and durable new facade.

  • Dental Crowns: For severely worn teeth, a crown provides 360-degree coverage, restoring the tooth’s shape, strength, and function completely.

  • Full Mouth Rehabilitation: In complex cases where most or all teeth are affected, we can design a comprehensive, phased plan to rebuild your entire bite and smile.

Crucially, our treatment also includes addressing the root cause, such as creating a custom nightguard to protect against grinding.

Stop the Damage, Start Rebuilding.

Worn-down teeth are more than a cosmetic issue; they are a sign that your smile's health is at risk. Contact Veda Family Dentistry today for a comprehensive evaluation and to learn how we can rebuild your smile's strength, function, and beauty.
