Abfractions
Abfractions are worn surfaces at the necks of the teeth. They can be caused by clenching or grinding the teeth, as well as brushing too hard. Oftentimes, abfractions do not cause discomfort. Occasionally abfractions can cause deep grooves in the teeth which weaken the tooth structure, and or cause sensitivity in the tooth. When such problems arise dental fillings, (or in extreme cases) crowns may be recommended as treatment.
