Why Is My Tooth So Sharp?
Q.
Hello Dr Hughes,
I have a question to ask you about one of my bottom teeth and I hope you can help me. Over the past couple of months it has been very sharp and cuts my tongue whenever I slide it across my bottom teeth. The dentist I regularly go to has filed it down to give it a smoother feel, but the sharpness is still constantly there. I also got tooth bonding done after it was filed, and the sharpness is still there. What do you suggest this could be, and what would I be able to do to get rid of this sharpness on my tooth? Thank you for your time.

Hello, thank you for contacting me. It may need to be smoothed some more – why not try a second opinion? You could try visiting another dentist to see if they have alternative methods of smoothing down the tooth. Good luck, Mark.
