This study compared the surface change on natural and polished enamel exposed to a joint mechanical and chemical wear regimen....
Human enamel samples were randomly assigned to natural (n = 30) or polished (n = 30) groups, subjected to erosion (n = 10, 0.3% citric acid, 5 min), abrasion (n = 10, 30 s), or a combination (n = 10)....
After four cycles, polished samples had mean step heights of 3.08 (0.40) μm after erosion and 4.08 (0.37) μm after erosion/abrasion. For natural samples, these measurements were 1.52 (0.22) μm and 3.6...
Natural enamel, when exposed to erosion alone, showed less wear and minimal subsurface alterations. But with added abrasion, natural enamel surfaces saw increased wear and notable subsurface changes c...
The pronounced subsurface lesions observed on eroded/abraded natural enamel surfaces highlight how combined wear challenges may accelerate tooth tissue loss....
Pathological tooth wear is a dental problem that affects all age groups and appears to be increasing in prevalence. A subset of these patients may benefit from a combination of orthodontic and restora...
To explore the variability of tooth wear progression at the surface-, tooth- and patient-level over a period of three years three years using in vivo 3D-measurements of full dentitions amongst patient...
Fifty-five eligible patients with moderate to severe tooth wear had intra-oral scans taken using either the 3 M True Definition Intraoral Scanner or the 3 M Lava Chairside Oral Scanner. The maximum he...
Thirty patients with scans at intake and after three years were included (38 ± 8 years, 77% M, 23% F). Mean observation time was 3.1 ± 0.2 years. Surface measurements (N = 1,615) showed a high deviati...
In a group of patients with moderate to severe tooth wear, large differences in wear progression were found within and amongst patients. Tooth wear progression is therefore highly individualized and c...
This study confirms the necessity of individual management of patients with moderate to severe tooth wear. Effective monitoring of tooth wear is important when deciding the timing and need for restora...
NCT04790110....
This study aimed to estimate the cumulative incidence and the progression of erosive tooth wear (ETW) according to tooth type over a follow-up period of 18 months in adolescents living in Mexico City....
This study aims to map evidence on the relationship between hard drug use and dental wear. The scoping review is guided by the question: What is the relationship between hard drug consumption and dent...
Adhering to PRISMA-ScR guidelines, searches were conducted across PubMed, Embase, and four databases in March 2024. Inclusion criteria included studies investigating the association between hard drug ...
Twenty-eight studies (four case-control, three cross-sectional, five case reports, and sixteen literature reviews) were included. Among case-control studies, 75% observed an association between drug u...
Analysis suggests a potential link between hard drug use and dental wear, though indirect. Factors like bruxism and reduced salivary pH may contribute to dental wear among drug users. Further investig...
Dentists should focus not only on clinical characteristics of dental wear but also on mediating factors such as bruxism and decreased salivary pH associated with drug use. This holistic approach allow...
Tooth wear (TW) prevalence is high and increasing and has important consequences on the patient's quality of life. Knowledge of risk factors is crucial to promote diagnosis, prevention strategies and ...
This scoping review aims to map and describe suspected available factors associated with TW in permanent dentition based on quantitative measurement....
The scoping review was conducted using the PRISMA extension of the Scoping Reviews checklist. The search was conducted in October 2022 from the Medline® (PubMed® interface) and Scopus® databases. Two ...
2702 articles were identified for assessment of titles and abstracts, and 273 articles were included in the review. The results show a need to standardise TW measurement indices and the study design. ...
TW management and prevention require a multidisciplinary approach. Dentists are in the first line to detect associated diseases such as reflux or eating disorders. Consequently, practitioners' informa...
The aims of this study were to 1) assess the association between erosive tooth wear (ETW) according to the BEWE (Basic Erosive Wear Examination) scoring system and salivary parameters and 2) compare s...
Literature was systematically reviewed to identify salivary characteristics and their association with tooth wear....
A protocol was developed a priori (PROSPERO CRD42022338590). Established systematic review methods were used for screening, data extraction, and synthesis. Risk of bias and the certainty of evidence w...
MEDLINE, Embase, SCOPUS, Web of Science, CINAHL, and additional sources were searched....
Studies reporting salivary characteristics in patients with tooth wear or models thereof were included. Animal and in-vitro studies and case reports were excluded....
One-hundred eleven studies were included. Qualitative analyses showed a negative association between tooth wear and salivary pH and flow rate in many studies. The higher the study size the higher the ...
From all potential risk factors, stimulated whole saliva pH showed a negative association, both quantitatively and qualitatively with tooth wear, indicating potential usefulness of pH monitoring in th...
Tooth wear is a prevalent condition that may lead to functional or esthetic impairments and pain. Knowing the potential risk factors like salivary pH or flow rate and their dynamics could be relevant ...
Pathological tooth wear is an increasing concern and may require intervention and occlusal rehabilitation. Often the treatment includes distalisaton of the mandible to restore the dentition in centric...
A literature search was carried out using the following keywords (OSA or sleep apnoea or apnea or snoring or AHI or Epworth score) and for tooth surface loss (TSL or distalisation or centric relation ...
No studies were identified which considered the effect of mandibular distalisation on OSA....
There is a theoretical risk that dental treatment involving distalisation may adversely affect patients at risk of OSA or worsening their condition due to the modification of airway patency. Further s...
The study continues our longitudinal observation of wear aiming to further monitoring of progression and lesion morphology and to identify relationships with assumed aetiological factors....
Molars (FDI #36 or #46) of 74 participants (23.8 ± 2.2 years) were scanned (Trios 3, 3Shape) at the third follow-up (T3; observation period 1,111 ± 10 days). Data sets from T3, T2 (24-month follow-up)...
Wear increased at T3 significantly at low rates in all areas of the occlusal surface (median between 7.0 (4.0;10.5) and 9.5 (6.0;15.0) µm). There was a clear trend for higher loss values in males, but...
Wear continued at low rates with C/CF morphology and sex as significant factors. Cupped lesions seem to develop from facets and thus may not be a valid diagnostic criterion for erosive tooth wear....
Wear is a cumulative process that apparently follows complex mechanisms that cannot be conceptualized in simplified terms; C and CF may be indicators for higher progression rates....
