Enamel Erosion

Enamel helps the teeth fight against sensitivity and many different chemicals from food that causes the teeth harm. When enamel erodes, a patient may cringe while sipping hot or cold beverages and while brushing and flossing the teeth. To prevent enamel erosion, it’s best to maintain a rigorous oral care routine and visit our doctors at Bridge Smile Dental Group P.A. twice a year for an oral exam and professional cleaning.


Because it’s impossible for your body to produce new enamel, your goal should be to strengthen and repair the enamel you have left. This can be done through a process called “remineralization.” By using dental products that contain fluoride and calcium, you can actually focus on these weak spots to strengthen existing enamel before it wears away for good. Brushing with re-mineralizing toothpaste will help protect enamel while strengthening it.


If you have questions or concerns about preventive dental care, please give us a call.
