Suggest treatment for falling of outer crust of teeth
Patient: Hi, My father is suffering from some problem in his teeth. The outer crust of his upper and lower front teeth are falling down. This process is continuing and its from more than 4 years. Its like the outer chip of the teeth falling down. Can you please suggest what should we do? He has not seen any dentist as of now. Doctor: Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.The chipping off of the outer most layer that is enamel can occur in amelogenesis or dentinogenesis imperfecta, these are the two developmental disturbances in teeth. Nothing to be panic, consult a good esthetic dental surgeon and get the teeth restored with either composites or veneers. These are tooth colored restorative materials nothing to worry about appearance or esthetics.I hope my answer will help you, take care.
