The recession of gums and wearing away of teeth occurs commonly in adults.
It is important: -

2. To give preventive advice so that the problem does not get worse.

3. To provide appropriate restorative treatment where necessary.

1. Inappropriate brushing technique.
2. Frequent use of abrasive toothpastes.
3. Diet related and other more complex reasons e.g. high acidic
4. drinks and bulimia.
5. Grinding and clenching of teeth causes tooth to tooth contact and 5.wear of tooth surface.

Although brow lift surgery is often performed on its own, it is also commonly performed alongside other facial cosmetic surgery procedures such as eyelid surgery or face lift plastic surgery. Therefore the exact surgical procedure which is used to perform your brow lift surgery will depend on your requirements which you can discuss in depth with your cosmetic surgeon

Restoring worn teeth or 'abrasion' cavities:

Modern tooth coloured materials and the latest bonding techniques allow dentists to restore the amount of tooth lost, thus preventing further damage.
In most cases no injection or drilling is necessary.
Restoring the teeth will protect the tooth surface, stop sensitivity and improve aesthetics. If a lot of tooth surface is lost a Dental Veneer, Crown or On lay may be necessary to restore the tooth. It is worth seeing a cosmetic dentist if the aesthetics are important to you.

Preventive advice:

1. Use of a medium/soft toothbrush.
2. Correct your brushing technique.
3. Placing toothbrush under hot water for a few seconds (to soften the bristles).
4. Regular dental checks and hygiene visits.
