Tooth wear is a natural occurrence that happens continuously over a person’s lifetime. It involves the deterioration of the dental structure, starting from the hardest outer layer of the tooth (enamel) and progressing to the softer part (dentin). Age often plays a role in tooth wear due to prolonged contact between the opposing teeth in the jaws. Factors such as diet, habits, customs and diseases could also contribute to tooth wear. Tooth wear is irreversible, leading to the loss of dental hard tissues and impacting functionality.
