Dental advice needed
1 Answers
I have enamel erosion and am considering getting some treatment from the dentist.
Previously (some time ago) I had it done on one tooth - they painted a liquid onto the tooth surface and let it harden this then formed a protective coating on the enamel to prevent it eroding.
What does this type of treatment cost per tooth?
Does any one know?
I have a few teeth I would need it on and probably need to save a few quid up first!

You could be talking about any number of treatments. From what you described it may have been:
a) The application of a high concentration fluoride varnish
b) The application of an unfilled resin
c) The restoration of the eroded defect with a composite resin restoration
The best advice would be to speak with your dentist. They should be able to answer all of the questiosn that you have posted here.
Also, try to look at the causative factors rather than just treating the symptoms, to prevent further tooth tissue loss.
