Tooth Erosion: Prevention and Treatment

From Dentistry Made Simple Dentistry Made Simple

A comprehensive clinical guide to managing tooth surface loss caused by chemical dissolution. Edited by Kevin HK Yip, Roger J Smales, and John A Kaidonis, the text distinguishes erosion from other forms of wear like attrition and abrasion, noting its increasing prevalence in modern, affluent societies. The authors explore etiological factors, categorized into extrinsic sources like acidic diets and intrinsic sources such as gastric reflux. Professional guidance is offered on diagnostic techniques, including the use of dental photography and silicone impressions to monitor physical changes over time. Additionally, the source addresses the psychological behaviors and lifestyle choices that contribute to dental damage while outlining practical restorative treatments and preventative strategies. Through case histories and scientific data, the book aims to fill a void in dental literature for practitioners and students alike.
