You may choose full coverage restoration on these teeth.
It would be very rare for you to have no enamel on your teeth.
Get teeth restored.
A congenital condition, known as enamo-genesis imperfecta is a very rare condition, where there is essentially no enamel formed on the tooth surface. A secondary cause, can be due to erosion of the enamel off the tooth surface. This can be accomplished thru drug use, or more commonly through the habit of sucking on limes or lemons. This can severely erode the enamel off normal teeth. In cases like these, the affected teeth will need to be crowned. Tis restores the protective covering to the rest of the tooth
Consult with your American Dental Association Dentist. Most likely full crown coverage will be suggested.

It all depends on where the enamel loss is. Ranges from bonding to crowns to a complete full mouth reconstruction.

Hi,
If you truly have no enamel on your teeth, you should see a dentist to have the teeth protected with fillings (if only small to medium amounts of enamel is missing) or crowns (large amounts missing). He or she will determine the best course of action.
Hope this helps.
