Hello,
You can have your bite evaluated. Your teeth may not line up well and cause uneven wear which can create sharp edges, sensitive teeth and risk fracture. Certain teeth such as canines have very pointed edges. Enamel can be resized with reshaping and reduce sharp edges. Other options include bonding or porcelain veneers. Braces will move your teeth into better alignment and usually proves esthetics.
Schedule a routine exam with X-rays and your dentist will discuss options to best address your concerns. Schecule a visit with an orthodontist if you are interested in braces.
Thank you for your inquiry.
