Tooth Wear and Excessive Staining
With the increased wear of teeth over the years, many seniors may notice
an unaesthetic appearance. Teeth can become unsightly and can make one
appear older than they really are. Teeth can also stain, especially since
these areas of enamel wear are excellent places for debris and plaque
to accumulate and stain over the years. Also, as the protective enamel
wear occurs, the yellowish dentin is more apparent causing teeth to appear
darker. Hypersensitivity of teeth is also common causing unnecessary discomfort
in patients.
