Worn teeth: What you need to know?

Worn and protruding teeth in the front region often indicate impaired function of the back teeth. This condition can be the result of various factors, such as:

  • Lack of teeth : Due to the loss of back teeth, the front teeth can suffer more stress.

  • Old and oversized fillings : Composite fillings that have not been properly restored can lead to impaired function.

  • Crooked teeth : Premature loss of molars can cause crooked teeth.

  • Reduced vertical dimension : A lowered bite affects the overall function of the teeth.

  • Bruxism : Excessive grinding of the teeth can wear and tear them.

  • Repeated breakage of seals or crowns : Frequent breakage of lateral seals or crowns may indicate problems with function.

What to expect from the review?

Our specialist will perform a thorough examination to determine all the specifics of your bite, the function of the teeth and the degree of damage. The examination includes the analysis of studio models of your teeth and the creation of an individual correction plan. Depending on the extent of the damage, it may be necessary to replace existing fillings with new, high-quality composite fillings, or in some cases, with crowns.

Functional and aesthetic reconstruction

When a stable function is achieved in the lateral region, it is possible to proceed to a complete correction of the aesthetics of the anterior teeth. During functional-aesthetic reconstruction, we apply a minimally invasive approach, which includes:

  • Modern Reconstruction Plan : For severely damaged teeth with more than 50% tooth mass lost, a complete reconstruction of all teeth may be required, including a new occlusion and a new pattern of chewing surfaces.

  • Precise application of principles : We apply principles of stable function and occlusion without compromise in all phases of work.
