Tooth Wear and Tribological Investigations in Dentistry
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.

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

The evolutionary paradox of tooth wear: simply destruction or inevitable adaptation? [PDF]
Over the last century, humans from industrialized societies have witnessed a radical increase in some dental diseases. A severe problem concerns the loss of dental materials (enamel and dentine) at the buccal cervical region of the tooth.

Tooth Wear in Relation to Selected Salivary Variables among a Group of Older Adults
Background: Tooth wear is one of the most concerning problems of the current dental practice especially among older subjects. The aim of this study is to determine the severity of tooth wear and its relation with selected salivary variables (salivary pH ...
