What's to be expected? might tooth enamal re generate?

No: Teeth enamel forms while the tooth is developing before eruption. Once it forms, it does not regenerate or forms more enamel . Tooth enamel can be lost from excessive brushing , using a strong abrasive tooth past, or drinking acidic beverages that erodes the enamel. Replacement only to the lost enamel is done by your dentist through restorative choices like boding , veneers or lumineers

No: Small incipient lesions on enamel may be re-mineralized and hardened, but only god can give you more enamel.

Enamel regeneration: No, once you lost the enamel, it does not grow back. Although weaken enamel can be remineralized and become slightly stronger than when it was demineralized.

Yes, it can: Agree with dr. Andrew killgore 100%. It is a common knowledge. Your body is capable of restoring tooth enamel that has suffered minor damage (e.g. From acid). Rec.: talk to your dentist for more information.
