Frequent reflux, lemon water, sports drinks or years of sipping soda can slowly soften tooth surfaces. St. Boniface is an area of Winnipeg, and this page is for anyone there who suspects acid is behind the changes in their teeth.
Let's find a time
Enamel that is repeatedly bathed in acid can lose hardness and wear away faster under ordinary chewing and brushing. Because the exposure reaches most of the mouth, the damage rarely stays on one tooth. Edges may look see-through, surfaces may turn yellower as the layer underneath shows, and fillings can start to stand proud of the tooth around them.
Once tooth height and structure have been lost in many places, sensitivity, appearance and the way the jaws meet can all be affected together. That is when a coordinated plan may be worth discussing. Rebuilding teeth without understanding the source of the acid would leave new restorations facing the same conditions.

Diet, reflux and other medical factors are part of the history worth sharing.
Records show how much height has been lost and where the bite now meets.
Health and stability come ahead of the final restorations that replace lost structure.
Erosion can resemble grinding damage, and many mouths show a mix of both. Sorting out the pattern helps decide what rebuilding is realistic and what has to change first.
The dentist studies the teeth, the existing work and the supporting tissues together.
Selected according to how complex the case is, these help compare options.
Restorations may be planned to rebuild lost height, and provisional work is sometimes used first to test how a changed bite feels. Whether that applies to you depends on the examination.
Every case follows its own path. The order below reflects the general principle that disease control and stability come before definitive rebuilding.
Request your visitWhat you drink, how often, and any heartburn or reflux all help explain the pattern.
Records give a baseline, so later reviews can show whether the wear has slowed.
Pain, infection or a tooth at risk of fracture is addressed before larger decisions.
Options and their sequence are explained, with room to ask what each stage depends on.
Nobody expects a perfect diet diary. A rough picture of your usual drinks, snacks and any stomach troubles is enough to start a useful discussion.
A tooth that aches constantly, a swollen area or a fracture is a reason to call the clinic instead of waiting for a planning visit.
A white desk with black office chairs, then a bench and white chairs by a window.
Many people feel awkward describing what they eat and drink, especially when they suspect it has harmed their teeth. The purpose of asking is practical. Knowing the cause shapes which materials and steps make sense and what protection the finished work will need.
If a physician manages your reflux, that information belongs in your dental history too.
The reason a stabilizing phase precedes rebuilding should make sense to you.
Sharp reactions to cold or sweets help pinpoint where enamel is thinnest.
Protecting rebuilt surfaces
New restorations do not remove the conditions that wore the original teeth down. Maintenance is how changes are noticed before they become a new problem.
Checks of teeth, gums and restorations show whether wear has resumed anywhere.
Changes to habits discussed at planning continue to matter after treatment ends.
Where grinding adds to the wear, an appliance may form part of protecting the result.
If a restoration chips, comes loose or a tooth suddenly hurts, please phone rather than leaving it until the next review.

Helpful details about full-mouth reconstruction in St. Boniface.
Ask our teamOften you cannot without an examination, and the two frequently overlap. The dentist looks at the shape and location of the worn areas along with your bite and history.
No, enamel does not regenerate once it has worn away. Where enough structure has gone, restorations may be considered to rebuild shape and protect what remains.
That is a conversation for your appointment, since frequency and habits matter as much as the drink itself. Bring an honest description of what you have each day.
Stomach acid that reaches the mouth can contribute to erosion. Knowing about it helps explain your wear pattern and informs how restorations should be protected.
Restorations behave differently from natural enamel, but the teeth and gums around them remain vulnerable. Ongoing maintenance and managing the cause both stay important.
Yes. Calling (204) 338-3003 lets you ask general questions first. If you go ahead, the erosion assessment itself is done at our McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg.
