Flattened edges and repairs that keep breaking often have something in common: the forces behind them. Grinding and clenching deserve a place in any plan to rebuild worn teeth.
Let's find a time
Perhaps your partner hears you grinding at night, or your front teeth look shorter than they did some years ago. If you live in Leila North and are wondering what can be done, Winnipeg North Dental can assess those teeth at our clinic on McPhillips Street in Winnipeg.
Tooth-coloured materials can restore worn structure, but rebuilding the shape without accounting for what wore it down leaves part of the problem unaddressed. Your contact patterns and habits therefore inform the design from the outset.
Explore tooth-colored restorations
How your teeth meet, and any clenching, get reviewed along with the worn surfaces.
Heavy forces can change which restoration is suitable and how it should be built.
Should anything be done to shield a restored tooth? Raise that with your dentist.
Not all wear looks alike or needs the same response. The amount of tooth lost and the load on it help determine how it should be restored.
Worn or chipped areas can sometimes be restored with bonded composite, sculpted directly on the tooth.
When a tooth has lost much of its structure or has weakened cusps, a custom design may offer the broader coverage it needs.
Grinding does not disqualify you from tooth-coloured care, but it is important information. Please mention it even if you are only guessing that you do it.
With wear, understanding how your teeth function can matter as much as looking at the damaged surfaces. A visit may take this general shape.
Request your visitMorning jaw tiredness, flattened edges, repeated chips or a broken filling are all helpful clues to share.
We examine the wear pattern and how your upper and lower teeth contact one another, using dental images if appropriate.
If several teeth are affected, discuss which matter most to you and which seem to need attention first from a clinical standpoint.
Once a tooth has been rebuilt, your closing and chewing contacts are tested and adjusted so that they suit the new surface.
Many people who grind are not fully aware of it. A few observations made at home during the week before your visit can round out what we find in the examination.
Costs differ greatly between a single repair and care involving many teeth, so ask for estimates after your options become clearer.
From first discussion to treatment under one roof.
Worn teeth can be sensitive, and a tired jaw does not always enjoy staying open. Telling us about either one lets us plan your appointment with those concerns in view.
Thin enamel can make cold air or water feel sharper, so warn us about teeth that react.
Pausing to close and rest is fine, particularly if your muscles are already tender.
Grinding is usually not something you choose, and nobody will scold you for it.
Protecting the rebuild
Whatever caused the wear may continue after your teeth are restored. Knowing this ahead of time lets you watch for warning signs early.
Tiny chips along a rebuilt surface are worth pointing out at an early stage rather than later.
Notice whether you press your teeth together when concentrating, and report it at your next examination.
Regular examinations allow the restorations and your remaining wear to be compared over time.
If a repair chips or your bite suddenly feels different, contact the clinic by phone.

Helpful details about tooth-colored restorations in Leila North.
Ask our teamQuite possibly. Grinding affects the choice of design and protection instead of ruling out these materials, and an assessment shows what is reasonable for you.
Many things could be involved, including the size of the repair, how much support remains and how your teeth contact each other. Have the tooth examined so the actual cause can be looked for.
Adding material alters a tooth’s surface, so contact is examined carefully as part of the treatment. Tell the clinic if anything feels different afterward.
That situation calls for more planning than a single repair. Depending on the findings, your dentist might raise wider restorative options.
A dependable number does not exist. Habits are one factor among several, alongside material, bonding, repair size, hygiene and new decay.
