Molar tooth attrition in a selected group of Nigerians
Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, 1975ABSTRACT A study of the degree and gradient of attrition was undertaken on 352 molar teeth of 88 selected Nigerian subjects. A method for the quantification of attrition experience per molar tooth is described. There is a close correlation between age and the degree of attrition of the first molar.

The natural history of deciduous tooth attrition in hominoids
Journal of Human Evolution, 1991Abstract The degree of attrition on the mandibular deciduous teeth of 35 great apes, between 6 months and 5 years of age, was recorded by direct observation of each tooth. Specimens of Gorilla show markedly advanced attrition in relation to specimens Pan or Pongo of similar age.

The accuracy of simple ordinal scoring of tooth attrition in age assessment
Forensic Science International, 1990Tooth wear is frequently used as a method of ageing skeletal remains. Fundamental to this method is the ability to measure the amount of tooth wear. The Brothwell chart based on the Miles method of ageing, uses simple ordinal scoring and is frequently used by archeologists. The purpose of the present investigation was to evaluate the accuracy of simple

Anterior Tooth Attrition in Apes
Journal of Dental Research, 1975Attrition is the normal loss of tooth substance due to function and occurs both proximally (leading to a reduction mesiodistally) and occlusally (leading to a reduction in crown or cusp height) . Attrition is a universal primate attribute. Yet with the exception of man, it has been subject to little quantitative appraisal, particularly for the anterior

Tooth attrition and continuing eruption in a romano-british population
Archives of Oral Biology, 1982Cement-enamel junction to alveolar crest (CEJ-AC) distances were measured in Romano-British skulls. Measurements were also made of attrition patterns. The patterns of the two measurements were similar in each group, suggesting that teeth continued to erupt and CEJ-AC alone is misleading as a measurement of bone loss and may not relate to the extent of ...

Attrition, Abrasion and Erosion and Their Interactions in Tooth Wear
Monographs in Oral ScienceTooth wear involves three processes. Abrasion is a form of three-body wear produced by abrasive components of slurries contacting the teeth (either food or, in modern Western populations, mainly toothpaste). Attrition is a form of two-body wear through tooth-tooth contact. Erosion is demineralization of hard tissue, caused by acidic ingested substances

The association of systemic condition and medications on alveolar bone loss and tooth attrition.
Quintessence international (Berlin, Germany : 1985)Periodontal disease is caused by subgingival bacteria that adversely affect the host immune system and create and maintain unmitigated inflammation in gingival and periodontal tissues. The condition is also linked to systemic conditions including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and arthritis.

Biological Age Affecting Attrition and Tooth Loss in a Follow-up Study
Journal of Dental ResearchIn population-based longitudinal studies, bias caused by nonresponse among eligible participants and attrition during follow-up thwarts conclusions. As this issue is not commonly addressed in dental studies, it is the aim of this study to examine the consequences of attrition with respect to tooth loss and mortality in a 10-y follow-up study.
