Aggressive tooth wear can be caused from a variety of situations. Some of the most common factors for worn-down teeth include:

• Bruxism (grinding and clenching habit)
• Sleep apnoea
• Crowding or misaligned teeth
• Age and diet
• Untreated decay
• Irregular biting patterns

Depending on the cause, we may recommend therapies such as a mouthguard/bite splint to sleep with, or orthodontics to prevent additional tooth wear. It depends on the individual.

If your teeth are severely worn down, repairing them with a porcelain crown will restore both function and aesthetics.
