Unravelling the functional biomechanics of dental features and tooth wear [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Most of the morphological features recognized in hominin teeth, particularly the topography of the occlusal surface, are generally interpreted as an evolutionary functional adaptation for mechanical food processing.

Simulation and Verification of Involute Spline Tooth Surface Wear before and after Carburizing Based on Energy Dissipation Method

open access: yesMachines, 2023
This work studies the tooth surface wear of floating involute spline couplings. Based on the energy dissipation method, this study takes the floating involute spline couplings as the research object, divides the whole wear cycle into three wear stages ...

Tooth wear [PDF]

open access: yesGlasnik Antropoloskog drustva Srbije, 2014
Tooth wear is the loss of dental hard tissue that was not caused by decay and represents a common clinical problem of modern man. In the etiology of dental hard tissue lesions there are three dominant mechanisms that may act synergistically or separately:friction (friction), which is caused by abrasion of exogenous, or attrition of endogenous origin ...

Tooth Wear and Tribological Investigations in Dentistry

open access: yesApplied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2022
Dental or tooth wear is a physiological process in the life cycle of teeth. Loss of the occlusal surface may cause excessive tooth wear. Several factors may contribute to tooth wear with different intensities and duration in the oral cavity.

Wear of human teeth: a tribological perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The four main types of wear in teeth are attrition (enamel-on-enamel contact), abrasion (wear due to abrasive particles in food or toothpaste), abfraction (cracking in enamel and subsequent material loss), and erosion (chemical decomposition of the tooth)

TOOTH WEAR IN CHILDREN - PREVALENCE, CLINICAL FEATURES AND RISK FACTORS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of IMAB, 2021
Introduction: Pathological tooth wear in children with primary dentition can be a result of various harmful habits, risk factors and nocturnal bruxism. It is difficult to be distinguished from physiological tooth wear.
