Age old question: It's very frustrating to work so hard at maintaining your teeth only to still have problems... Imagine if you didn't take care of them! i assume you see a dentist 2x year for check-ups and cleanings, not just when you have a broken tooth and/or pain. Continue that, and you will probably have your teeth for a long, long time.
