Melt cracks on the snow no-links-and-actions >

I have had vertical white cracks on my incisors for some time. The dentist thinks it is enamel cracks and there is nothing you can do about it.

I forgot to ask if the cracks could get bigger?

Is a enamel crack very deep in the tooth, or on top of it?

Thanks for info.

But there is something you can do about it. as long as there are only melt cracks you could use a so-called "bonding" have it done — that is. you have a very thin layer of plastic applied to your teeth. LG Josyline;)
