Did you get any treatment for it? I’m looking at enamel bonding. Has anyone ever had this?

I have on my gum line due to brushing too hard/teeth grinding
Had cosmetic bonding done and it worked really well

Doesn't enamel wear away naturally over time? So pretty much everyone beyond the age of, say, 70?

Interested in this thread?

I have plenty, also as a result of bulimia. Mine are mostly fairly shallow, but visible stains, so I'm not keen on them. For a long time we (as in me and the dentist) just watched and waited, as any fixing would include actually damaging the tooth at least a little bit, and they weren't bothering me too much. In the past five years I've started getting them very gradually seen to. In my case it's basically been shallow white composite "fillings". There's a good chance they're not longlived, as they're so shallow, but it seemed like the simplest way to start off with. So far haven't lost any fillings. They must look very natural, as I can't personally even tell where they are, looking in the mirror.
