Dear, This is the age where u need the teeth most. I would recommend a through examination of your teeth. Some treatments like capping or restoration oc chipped peripheral part of the tooth which we call enamel reconstruction can be done. By doing these procedures it will increase the life span of your teeth .

Due to heavy eating forces. The teeth tend to break and wear off.To prevent this you can get a night guard made.It is a plastic tray that is made specially for your size, fits on your teeth and prevents the damage.You can wear it while sleeping. Or during the day as well. I request you to also get your teeth checked by dentist to know whether your teeth need any occlusal adjustment/occlusal rehabilitation.

Tooth loosening is due to bone loss around the teeth it is due to age factor so nothing to worry precaution is to save other good teeth whatever happened is happened nothing can be done just you can maintain it

Hello, you need to get the damaged peripheral teeth filled to stop any further damage. Use a soft bristle tooth brush and brush in circular motion rather horizontal brushing. Thank you
