What is the main cause of acid erosion?

The causes are multifactorial. We conduct a thorough assessment to determine the exact functional or biological drivers in your specific case.

How long does treatment take?

Timelines vary significantly depending on complexity. A comprehensive consultation will provide you with a clear, tailored timeline.

Is the treatment permanent?

While we design treatments for maximum longevity, the human body changes over time. Excellent home care and professional maintenance are required to sustain results.

Causes & Risk Factors

Acid Erosion is rarely caused by a single factor. It is typically a combination of biological, functional, and lifestyle elements. We utilize advanced diagnostics to identify these specific risk factors before proposing any treatment.

Comprehensive Diagnosis

Our diagnostic pathway includes 3D imaging (CBCT), digital intraoral scanning, functional bite analysis, and comprehensive risk assessment. We gather objective data to formulate a precise, predictable treatment plan.

Treatment Pathways

Treatment for acid erosion is highly personalized. Depending on the severity and underlying causes, your pathway may involve minimally invasive restorative care, functional orthodontics, occlusal rehabilitation, or interdisciplinary collaboration.

Prevention & Maintenance

The ultimate goal is long-term stability. Once health is restored, we implement a tailored maintenance protocol to protect your investment and preserve your natural tissues for life.
