What happens when enamel is eroded away?
When enamel is eroded away, the protective outer layer of the teeth becomes thinner, leading to increased sensitivity and vulnerability to decay. This erosion can result from factors such as acidic diets, poor oral hygiene, or certain medical conditions. As enamel diminishes, the underlying dentin becomes exposed, which can cause pain and discomfort. If left untreated, enamel erosion can lead to tooth decay, cavities, and more severe dental issues.

Is it harmful to your teeth to eat crushed ice everyday?
Yes. Tooth enamel is crystalline in structure, and the frequent drastic changes in temperature resulting from eating crushed ice causes the enamel to expand and contract. Over time, the expansion and contraction of the enamel results in the weakening of the structure. This can lead to fractures in the enamel, especially if the tooth has a filling, because the filling material expands and contracts at a different rate than the enamel. This puts additional stress on the enamel and increases the likelihood of fracture.
