When you suddenly notice cracks on your enamel, it is normal for you to get worried. The 1st and foremost is you should shed these worries as they are not serious in nature; nonetheless, you should plunge into an action and to start with understand what causes ‘crazy lines’.
Craze lines are nothing but ‘multiple cracks’ that are tiny in nature that impacts the ‘outer enamel’.
Causes
They are caused by either wear and tear of the teeth and also arising out of years of chewing. Nonetheless, dental researchers opine they could be due to other habits like biteing of nails or bruxism. The term bruxism is used to denote grinding, clenching and similar occurrences that take place on the teeth.
Impact on Dental Health
Even though it is taken that craze lines are extremely common in adult teeth, that do not causes pain, yet when cracks deepen beyond the enamel, it is necessary for you to seek dental advice.
A cracked tooth would result in sensitivity and when untreated, it may lead to extraction of the tooth.
Your dentist would find out the condition and offer appropriate advice and treatment.
Fixing of Craze Lines
A solution, which your Dentist may consider is to get veneers. They are wafer thin shells that are bonded in the front of your teeth, which improves the appearance of the teeth. Being customs fit, they hide chipped, crooked or gapped teeth.Veneer calls for retaining more of your natural teeth than a commonly used to strengthen broken down or decayed teeth. Whatever may be the cause of craze lines, there is no need for them to make you go ‘crazy’.
