You can lose enamel due to an injury to a tooth, acid-erosion, or bruxism. Losing enamel on your teeth changes their shape, which can cause misalignment.
If there’s loss of the outside layer of your teeth (enamel), the teeth may tend to shift. Even in the absence of wisdom teeth, your teeth will continually shift. Some blame wisdom teeth for their crowded teeth but that’s definitely not the case. If you haven’t worn your retainer continuously your teeth will begin to shift. While this is normal it can seem worse if we’ve already undergone orthodontic treatment at some point. Through a drifting process, our teeth slowly begin to shift inward and forward as we age. Wearing down the enamel of your teeth will make your bite feel different, and it can even lead to chipping, cracking, and/or breaking teeth. If you are prone to stress or carry tension in your jaw, you may unknowingly be grinding your teeth at night. Years of biting down, grinding, and clenching can wreak havoc on your smile. Just like the rest of the body, time can take its toll on your teeth.
