Presentation
In the 1993 national study 1 52% of subjects had erosion present, with 24% having exposed dentine. [nature.com]
The dental management of a young child suspected of having anorexia, who presented with severe dental erosion, is described. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Ion Chromatography (IC) The IC is used to determine the concentration of different anions present in the six cola drinks being tested. [pubmedcentral.nih.gov]
In contrast, the gravimetric method used in the present study is suitable to include all these properties. [journals.plos.org]
Respiratoric
- Chronic Cough
Common symptoms are heart burn along the oesophageal pathway; epigastric pain localised over the stomach; regurgitation into the mouth; dysphagia with or without pain; noncardiac retrosternal pain; chronic coughing and sore throat from laryngitis; vocal [pubmedcentral.nih.gov]
Gastrointestinal
- Epigastric Pain
Common symptoms are heart burn along the oesophageal pathway; epigastric pain localised over the stomach; regurgitation into the mouth; dysphagia with or without pain; noncardiac retrosternal pain; chronic coughing and sore throat from laryngitis; vocal [pubmedcentral.nih.gov]
Jaw & Teeth
- Dental Caries
We recorded the prevalence and severity of tooth erosion, dental caries, and dental enamel hypoplasia. Socioeconomic and habits/dietetic data were collected by a structured questionnaire. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In conclusion, excessive intake of soft drinks could cause complex dental consequences including dental erosion and caries. [pubmedcentral.nih.gov]

Skin
- Keratosis
Keratosis on the tongue seems to act as a rasper that removes surface tooth material softened by decalcification. [pubmedcentral.nih.gov]
Psychiatrical
- Anger
This mould, when hardened, fits comfortably inside the patients mouth, and is worn in sleep; the sleep state is when a great deal of involuntary tooth grinding (the reaction to stress, anger, bad dreams, etc.) takes place. [longwood-dental.com]
Neurologic
- Forgetful
Public Pools As you set off on vacation, don’t forget to think about your teeth before you cannonball into the lazy river. Most public pools test the chlorine and pH levels daily, but you should always peek around before you dive in. [greenspointdental.com]
Don’t forget your tongue. Invest in a high performance electric toothbrush for super clean teeth and gums. See your dentist for check-ups and cleans every six months. [completedentalworks.com.au]
Workup
Serum
- Calcium Increased
The increase in calcium shown in the swishing experiment without teeth ( Figure 3 ) after rinsing with the colas may be derived from calcium ions secreted in stimulated saliva. [pubmedcentral.nih.gov]
Microbiology
- Helicobacter Pylori
Manometry results were abnormal in 8% of study participants, abnormal esophageal pH in 17.7%, and a pathological 24-hour pH recording in 21.3%. 3.6% were positive for Helicobacter pylori. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
Seeking treatment for tooth erosion is important to protecting dental health. There are a variety of treatments to repair the damage of tooth erosion. [brownbarandentistry.com]
[…] require remedial treatment of a considerably greater magnitude. [doi.org]
The treatment principle is illustrated with clinical cases. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment of tooth wear Consult a dentist about treatment options to restore enamel. Your treatment will depend on the level of erosion and presence of cavities, and can include crowns, composite fillings or veneers. [bluecourtdental.com]
By far the best treatment for tooth erosion is prevention; regularly visit your dentist for teeth cleaning and checkups. [webdental.com]
Prognosis
The failure to recognize their early signs can compromise a patient's recovery and long-term prognosis. Tooth erosion has been reported as an oral manifestation that might help in the early detection of eating disorders. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In Part 1 of this series, I discussed attrition, which is potentially the etiologic agent of tooth wear with the poorest long-term prognosis. [speareducation.com]

Etiology
This study aimed to examine the location and severity of tooth erosion with respect to causative factors, and to determine whether the clinical pattern of erosion reflected the dominant etiological factor. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Epidemiology
Its application should be useful for research into the aetiology, prevention and monitoring of a condition, essentially being an epidemiological and clinical tool. [doi.org]
Study quality was assessed using the STROBE (Strengthening the Reporting of Observational studies in Epidemiology) statement and Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale (NOS). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prevention
Abstract Dental care professionals can support patients to prevent and manage tooth erosion. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
You should have your teeth checked regularly by your dentist to prevent the need for tooth enamel restoration. When dental erosion is caught early, your dentist is able to suggest treatment that may prevent further erosion or tooth decay. [bluecourtdental.com]
Tooth Decay & Erosion Both decay and erosion of the teeth are preventable with proper dental care. [drkellislate.com]
