A member asked:
What is it when the tip of two front teeth turn somewhat transparent?my teeth r kinda transparent near the tips.no idea since when.why's that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Thin enamel: You may be grinding your teeth. If so, the edge of the enamel on the lingual surfaces of the teeth in question may have been worn thin, making the teeth look even more transparent in that area. Let a local dentist take a look and advise if any treatment is indicated, including a bruxism guard.
