random Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I was fiddling with a back molar and 2 small pieces came off I was able to crush them into a powder in my fingers!!!! I brush twice daily and listerine at least once daily I do not floss but my teeth are well spaced allowing tooth brush bristles to clean very well.. Needless to say I will be going to the dentist right smartly but I thought it very peculiar for the tooth to just crumble!!!! What would cause that!!???? and how would one correct it? Oh it's worth mentioning I am a smoker. I have no cavities and have not since I was a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMF Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Rktpro. I had a similar experience a long time ago. The dentist knocked off some chunks for me to examine. SM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
