“…The susceptibility of dentin to abrasive wear has been shown to be further increased when challenged in vitro prior to toothbrushing with an erosive insult; the toothbrush easily removing the superficially demineralised hard tissue [105, 114], findings that were supported more recently in vitro [110] and in situ [106]. Both abrasive and erosive components are important in this type of tooth wear, and indeed the RDA of the paste may be more influential than the erosive component.…”

Dentin hypersensitivity: pain mechanisms and aetiology of exposed cervical dentin

ObjectivesThe paper’s aim is to review dentin hypersensitivity (DHS), discussing pain mechanisms and aetiology.Materials and methodsLiterature was reviewed using search engines with MESH terms, DH pain mechanisms and aetiology (including abrasion, erosion and periodontal disease).ResultsThe many hypotheses proposed for DHS attest to our lack of knowledge in understanding neurophysiologic mechanisms, the most widely accepted being the hydrodynamic theory. Dentin tubules must be patent from the oral environment to the pulp. Dentin exposure, usually at the cervical margin, is due to a variety of processes involving gingival recession or loss of enamel, predisposing factors being periodontal disease and treatment, limited alveolar bone, thin biotype, erosion and abrasion.ConclusionsThe current pain mechanism of DHS is thought to be the hydrodynamic theory. The initiation and progression of DHS are influenced by characteristics of the teeth and periodontium as well as the oral environment and external influences. Risk factors are numerous often acting synergistically and always influenced by individual susceptibility.Clinical relevanceWhilst the pain mechanism of DHS is not well understood, clinicians need to be mindful of the aetiology and risk factors in order to manage patients’ pain and expectations and prevent further dentin exposure with subsequent sensitivity.

“…Foodstuffs are known to wear the occlusal surface of the teeth [114]; for example, the erosive nature of roasted vegetables compared to other cooking styles [130]. Attrition [131] may play a role in some cases of occlusal dentin hypersensitivity, due to parafunctional habits like bruxism [132].…”

“…For example accelerated abrasion may take place at a surface already demineralized by erosion. 7 In adults, differential diagnosis becomes difficult in this type of situation, 4 although in children it is acknowledged that the major cause of toothwear is erosion. 8 Tooth erosion is a multi-factorial condition and the causative factors may be divided into extrinsic and intrinsic types, appropriately represented by a VENN diagram (Figure 1).…”

A multifactorial analysis of factors associated with dental erosion

Objectives This study prospectively examines the relationship of possible aetiological factors to the presence of tooth erosion in a cohort of children. Patients and methods A random sample of 1,753 children was examined at age 12 and 1,308 of the same children were re-examined at age 14 years. The children were asked to complete questionnaires on both occasions, 1,149 subjects gave usable replies. The erosion index used was based upon the 1993 Survey of Children's Dental Health. Results were analysed using logistic regression. Results At age 12 significant positive associations were found between erosion and decay experience (odds ratio [OR]=1.48), drinking fruit juice (OR=1.42) or fizzy pop (OR = 1.59-2.52, depending on amount and frequency). The presence of calculus (OR 0.48) or eating fruit other than apples or citrus fruit (OR 0.48) reduced the chances of erosion. High consumption of carbonated drinks increased the odds of erosion being present at 12 years by 252% and was a strong predictor of the amount of erosion found at age 14. Conclusions Of the factors investigated, a history of dental caries and a high consumption of carbonated drinks were most closely related to the presence of dental erosion. The risk of erosion bore a strong relationship to the amount and frequency of carbonated drink consumption.It is only relatively recently that tooth erosion has been recognized as presenting a dental health problem in children. In 1993, the prevalence of erosion was reported as part of the national survey of Children's Dental Health in England and Wales 1 for the first time. Fifty per cent of 6-year-olds were found to have erosion and in 23% of children it had progressed into dentine. Thirty two per cent of 14-year-old children had erosion of the permanent dentition, with dentinal involvement present in 2%.The three main types of non-carious loss of dental hard tissue are attrition, abrasion and erosion. 2 Attrition implies removal of tooth surface due to movement of teeth against one another, pos-

“…More recent research has focused on the combined role of erosion and abrasion (Barlett and Shah, 2006). Studies have reported an acceleration of abrasion with acid-softening dissolution (Davis and Winter, 1980;Hooper and colleagues, 2003). Hooper and colleagues (2003) compared the effects of acid erosion and toothpaste abrasiveness on dentin and enamel in situ.…”
