Restorations: Once tooth enamel is lost thru decay, wear or erosion the only way to repair or replace it is with a restoration. This could be bonding, veneer or crown depending on the extent of the damage to the tooth. The best thing is prevention; good home care, low sugar and acid diet, control stress and grinding, regular dental care.
