Enamel tear in teeth

2017-04-24 06:02:38
Hi Doctor. My lower teeth is tearing off for some reason. I was told that it is due to constant touching of upper teeth. When I close my mouth the upper n lower teeth positions donot form a gap. Is it the problem.

Hello You can visit a dentist if there is a problem and it cause some kind of pain or movement Other than that I think it is fine and not a problem. Do not touch upper teeth willingly. Regards

Teeth don't tear off, they could, chip, break, fracture. If it's wearing off, you better get a through examination done.
