Acid. Teeth are a calcium compound, like bones but tougher. The most common cause of tooth erosion is carbonated soft drinks. Fizzy stuff.

If you suffer from acid reflux that will work on your teeth. Bulimics also experience this problem through vomiting.......you needed to know that.

Has to be food/drink with most people. I suppose you might have some condition where you don't have enough saliva or your saliva is unusually acidic and lacking in calcium.

Got a will........?

Frosty,

Could be a lack of saliva, according to this.

That reminds me of a song called 'Peanuts' by a North Shore band named Dogbite. The crunch-line was; "I know you stole my peanuts coz I saw them in your shit".

The mind boggles.

Have you by any chance been "corn cobbed" recently? That could explain it.

I've heard of people managing to brush the enamel off their teeth from over using a hard bristle toothbrush (over time).

Then he went through the list of other causes but none really fits.
The only possibility I can think of is that I drink a lot of tap water. Could that be a cause?

Magnesium deficency could be a factor. Seriously!
