12 y.o Dental implants  become blunt

2020-11-15 10:41:37
My grandma had artificial teeth permanently fixed 12 years ago. Now the teeth have become blunt and she has difficulty food that's needed to be grinded by tooth before swallowing like meat or hard food. Can this situation be fixed. No followup procedure was undertaken post installation which was done at a local dentist at Charminar (Hyderabad).
