A SAMPLE FROM THE TITLE DENTAL EROSION AND ITS GROWING IMPORTANCE IN CLINICAL PRACTICE:FROM PAST TO PRESENT

In brief

Introduction

Dental Erosion

Conclusion

Outline of Topics

Today's Discussion

Since the mid-1990s, there has been an increase in interest in dental erosion, and how it influences tooth wear. Before, studies on human tooth wear were mainly based on teeth obtained from teeth which were acquired via archaeology. These days such

studies are carried out on adult human beings. However, in neither clinical case report was dental erosion identified as a major etiological factor. In the mid-1990s, emphasis on this subject matter shifted from adults to children and adolescents on one hand,

and from general tooth wear (attrition and abrasion) to paying more attention the significance of the different causative factors resulting in erosive tooth wear.

In Brief

Recently, several studies from many different nations all over the globe have reported that the prevalence of erosive wear is high, especially among children and adolescents is high.

The food consumed by human beings centuries ago was often tough and contained coarse particles, which required heavy chewing.

Modern diets would appear to lack such abrasives but can contain acids, which can demineralize enamel and potentiate attrition and abrasion.

They describe the clinical research outcomes of some underlying events.

Introduction

Dental Erosion

Till now there has not been a consensus on the definition and diagnostic criteria for dental erosion.

With the existence of ambiguities, the diagnosis of the condition remains hazy, and the pathophysiology is still not fully understood; as such, patients cannot receive adequate management and counsel on how to prevent the condition.

It is, therefore, the purpose of this paper to give an overview of current knowledge of dental erosion, based on a scrutiny of the literature review.

This would lead to a better understanding, and a clarification of the diagnostic criteria and pathophysiology is essential for correct early diagnosis, management, and prevention.

Conclusion

Even though identifying a single clinically detectable cause of tooth wear may be challenging, it would be good to determine if dental erosion is becoming more of an essential characteristic of such tooth wear.

It is important for the oral healthcare team to be able to recognize the early signs and symptoms of dental erosion and to adequately understand disease process.

This understanding would be paramount to counselling patients appropriately on how to prevent and manage tooth wear early enough, before it evolves to stages where complications occur.
