I am 30 years old and have very good dental hygiene. But my teeth are breaking off?

I brush my teeth twice a day and floss once a day. I don't drink soda nor do I eat sugary foods, but for some reason my teeth are starting to break off. It started with one tooth. It had a break in the center, no discoloration in the tooth. Then it was a tooth on the other side of my mouth starting the same way. Now both are broken about 40. Sometimes they have broke off in chunks other times It seems like I have chalk in my mouth, like it's grinding off. Now I have a wisdom tooth that isn't completely in that a part of the tooth is broken. Is there something I am eating or not eating that could be causing this? Should I have them pulled? I am afraid that all of my teeth will end up like this and I don't want that to happen. Thank you for your time.

My wife had a similar problem. You may find that you grind and stress your teeth when asleep. I tend to do it to a lesser degree when awake, and this is just a matter of being concious and trying not to do it.





There are also some chemicals that weaken tooth structure by replacing the calcium. You can get replacement tooth paste that will help to some degree.





Your dentist should be able to tell you definitively as stress fractures are pretty distinctive. If this is the problem it can be good news as a mouth guard will prevent further damage.
Reply:I know that some people are just born with bad teeth, no matter how well they take care of them. I remember learning about a genetic tooth disorder in biology class. I forgot the name but it causes teeth to decay and fall out very easily. You might want to check with your dentist to see if it's something your doing or if you just have bad teeth.
Reply:Some people are just genetically predisposed to have problems with the strength of their teeth. My sister in law is thirty as well, and was religious about the care of her mouth, but now wears a full set of dentures. Her teeth did basically the same thing as yours. Is it possible that you are grinding your teeth in your sleep? That could cause more damage to your already weak teeth. See your dentist and ask him/her about you options; whether or not it is better for you to try to salvage your teeth or just have them pulled and go the denture route. My sister in law's new teeth look gorgeous, by the way. Good luck!

Reply:now as you are seeing it is not always smokers or candy eaters or gum chewers that get bad teeth what it sounds like is infections of the teeth and gums but like always check with dentist.
Reply:So see a dentist about it. You need some help. Never pull your teeth unless it is the only choice there is.
Reply:when your tooth was forming, you must have had some Major illness causing the tooth to be week. You may lose all your teeth soon.
