Q. My teeth have over the past few months become very thin looking and almost transparent looking and people have mentioned they look this way. I was wondering if anything could be done about this and how much it would likely cost at an NHS dentist.

A. Your thin teeth ar due to either acid erosion or a physical wear problem. The dagnosis needs to be made first.  Following this bonding, venering or corwning may be required .
