Why Older Crowns, Bridges, and Fillings Can Change Your Bite Over Time
Dental restorations are designed to restore strength, function, and visual appeal to your smile. Unfortunately, they don't remain pristine forever. Over time, dental crowns, bridges, and fillings can wear down, loosen, shift, or alter how teeth meet. When this happens, you may notice some discomfort, sensitivity, tension headaches, or simply the feeling that your bite no longer “fits” naturally.
