How can i repair surface tooth loss from my front teeth

Friday, August 15th, 2008
Q.
Hello there. I have recently noticed that i have quite bad surface tooth loss on my top four front teeth. Because of this where the bottoms of my front top teeth are quite thin and fragile, one is now starting to chip. My dentist has confirmed this to me. The answer they gave me was ” there is no repair” just prevention work to make sure this problem does not get any worse. But i do want to repair my teeth and stop these chips from happening anymore. I feel i can no longer smile at people because although tiny, these chips feel massive to me. the tooth surface loss in sadly to my having my tongue pierced in my early youth and i used to roll the stud along my upper teeth, and also alot of fizzy drinks. What treatment would you reccomend and what sort of price am i looking at.
