Brief Answer:
Clinical picture required for detailed treatment option

Detailed Answer:
Hii,first of all thank you for approaching 'Ask The Doctor' for your query.

I read through your query. According to what you have told there will be attrition of all teeth followed by sensitivity while having food. In that case you may have to go for rootcanal treatment of most of the teeth followed by bridge (strictly according to the symptoms told by you) Please if you can sent a picture of your oral cavity, I can give you a better diagnosis and treatment options.

Thank you and have a healthy day.
