Dental Erosion in Obese Patients before and after Bariatric Surgery: A Cross-Sectional Study

Abstract: Obese patients are at risk of dental erosion due to micronutrient deficiency, consumption of soft drinks, gastric reflux disease and vomiting.

A total of 62 patients with severe obesity were included in the analysis, 31 in the control group (without bariatric surgery) and 31 in the surgery group (after bariatric surgery). BEWE scores did… Show more

“…The erosion of enamel and dentin is one of the most frequently observed symptoms within the oral hard tissues [ 15 , 17 , 18 ]. We observe a phenomenon described as perimylolysis, which is caused by vomiting, gastroesophageal reflux, or belching, the characteristic site for the chemical loss of tooth tissues.…”
