Front tooth grooves

[ThatOddBloke]

One of my two front teeth slightly groove in the center, as in when you run your finger across the tooth from left to right it goes; normal, drop, normal - I'd like to find out what caused this and if it's normal!

Thank you

ThatOddBloke,

From what you are describing this sounds like a normal variation in your front tooth anatomy. Teeth can have a lot of variation in their anatomy. If it bothers you to look at there are easy ways to fix the problem. I would ask your dentist about a resin filling or possibly a veneer to cover up the groove. Hope this helps,
