Chewing, dental morphology and wear in tapirs (Tapirus spp.) and a comparison of free-ranging and captive specimens.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Feeding practice in herbivorous mammals can impact their dental wear, due to excessive or irregular abrasion. Previous studies indicated that browsing species display more wear when kept in zoos compared to natural habitats. Comparable analyses in tapirs

Assessing dental wear in reindeer using geometric morphometrical methods

open access: yesRangifer, 2009
Assessing dental wear is a useful tool for monitoring the interaction between ungulates and their food resources. However, using a univariate measurement for dental wear, like for instance height of the first molar may not capture the variation in dental

Teeth macroabrasion for determination of dental age and diet in the Illyrian population from the Kopila necropolis on the Island of Korčula, Croatia

open access: yesHomo, 2022
This paper presents the changes caused by macroabrasion of teeth on skeletal remains found in tomb No 4 in the west necropolis of the archeological site Kopila near Blato on the island of Korčula. The site archeologically dates back to the Late Iron Age,

Diagnosis and Management of Dental Wear

open access: yesJournal of the California Dental Association, 2011
Dental wear is loss of tooth structure resulting from erosion, attrition, abrasion, and, possibly, abfraction. Clinical/experimental data suggest no single damaging mechanism but rather simultaneous interaction of these destructive processes. The most important interaction is abrasion/attrition potentiated by dental erosion.

Friction and Wear of Restorative Dental Materials [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dental Research, 1971
Friction coefficients for a variety of material couples are reported. The relative abrasive wear of materials followed the order of their hardness, with one exception.

Control of erosive tooth wear: possibilities and rationale

open access: yesBrazilian Oral Research, 2009
Dental erosion is a type of wear caused by non bacterial acids or chelation. There is evidence of a significant increase in the prevalence of dental wear in the deciduous and permanent teeth as a consequence of the frequent intake of acidic foods and ...

Management of dental erosion induced by gastro-esophageal reflux disorder with direct composite veneering aided by a flexible splint matrix [PDF]

open access: yesRestorative Dentistry & Endodontics, 2018
Dental erosion is frequently overlooked in clinical practice. The management of erosion-induced damage to the dentition is often delayed, such that extensive occlusal rehabilitation is required.

Abrasive wear behavior of silane treated nanoalumina filled dental composite under food slurry and distilled water condition

open access: yesScience and Engineering of Composite Materials, 2018
The aims of the present study were to develop a dental composite filled with silanized nanoalumina and then to investigate the effect of nanoalumina filler on the two-body and three-body wear behavior under distilled water and food slurry medium ...

Dental Wear: A Scanning Electron Microscope Study [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2014
Dental wear can be differentiated into different types on the basis of morphological and etiological factors. The present research was carried out on twelve extracted human teeth with dental wear (three teeth showing each type of wear: erosion, attrition, abrasion, and abfraction) studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Microtomography evaluation of dental tissue wear surface induced by in vitro simulated chewing cycles on human and composite teeth

open access: yesAnnali dell'Istituto Superiore di Sanità, 2012
In this study a 3D microtomography display of tooth surfaces after in vitro dental wear tests has been obtained. Natural teeth have been compared with prosthetic teeth, manufactured by three different polyceramic composite materials.
