The top surface of my two bottom teeth are starting to wear away what is the best solution

Q. The top surface of my two middle bottom teeth are starting to wear away. What is the best solution for this from a cosmetic point of view, i go regularly to the dentist and he has never said anything about it, so I dont know if it is a problem I should be concerned about, it may be due to teeth grinding? Also the last time I went to the dentist and had a clean and he said it removed some of the enamel at the bottom inside of my middle lower teeth, this area has now never felt quite right since this, leaving a rough feeling – is there anything I can get done about this.

A. I don’t think he would have removed any of the enamel although the teeth can feel a bit differnet after a throrough scale. You have 2 options for the worn tooth, you might be able to stop the wear by wearing a bite guard at night or you may need to restore the teeth with crowns or veneers
