I've always taken really good care of my teeth. My childhood dentist said I was his favourite patient Grin. I never had a filling until my mid 20s.
Im now early 40s I have no work done on my bottom teeth. I have 2 root canal treatments and 1 filling on my upper teeth. I had both my upper wisom teeth out as my jaw is too small, they came through at a bad angle and were removed.

I brush properly and floss daily and eat a good diet.

Since about April last year I have had teeth basically snap off at the gum line. Not when I'm eating or anything. I'll feel something in my mouth, and it's a tooth. I've now lost 7.

My dentist cannot understand a reason.

Is there anything a Gp can check for?

Ntwa I know exactly what you mean. I used to be able to bite a thread off with my front teeth- they don't meet any more!!
