HELP - my teeth are disintegrating!!!

No joke - I really do need help!
Quite a while ago, my old dentist filed down the ends of my front teeth. Since then it just seems like the enamel is eroding (it may not be connected). It started with a rough 'ridgy' feeling on the bottom side of the teeth. It is now affecting other teeth (so about 6 on my top row). My very front tooth now has a crack - now on the face, not on the bottom (again I think it's the enamel eroding).
I brush twice a day, floss, mouthwash, see the dentist every 3 months - what can I do???

I'm on the NHS and asked her what I could do, she said there wasn't much and it was quite a common problem. She's lovely but doesn't speak too much English - can she really mean that????

Am very paranoid and very worried - is there any hope for me?

If you are grinding, you have a bite issue, they generally go hand in hand.

You will be grinding to try & adjust your bite.

The good news is, that it can be sorted out!

Good Luck!
