At Swiss Dental, we identify enamel hypoplasia during routine exams and assess the extent and severity using digital imaging tools. It can result from various factors including nutritional deficiencies, childhood illness, premature birth, or trauma to developing teeth. While the condition forms during development, its effects can persist into adulthood without proper care. Request an Appointment
Depending on the severity, we offer several treatment options. For mild cases, fluoride applications and sealants help protect vulnerable areas. For moderate to severe enamel defects, we may recommend composite bonding, veneers, or crowns to strengthen the tooth and improve appearance. Our cosmetic and restorative materials are color-matched for a natural look.
It’s also important to manage oral hygiene carefully. We guide patients with enamel hypoplasia on using non-abrasive toothpaste, soft-bristled brushes, and proper dietary choices to minimize damage and maintain comfort.
If you suspect you or your child has enamel hypoplasia, schedule an evaluation at Swiss Dental. Early intervention can prevent complications and help preserve natural teeth for a lifetime.
