Aetiology of Tooth Surface Loss course for Dental Practice
This session defines dental erosion and introduces you to the typical clinical presenting signs and symptoms of this condition.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this session you will be able to:
- Define dental erosion
- Describe its clinical presentation
- State how other tooth wear mechanisms may impact upon erosive tooth surface loss
- Demonstrate an understanding and appreciation of the sources of extrinsic and intrinsic acids implicated in the aetiology of dental erosion
This session defines dental erosion and introduces you to the typical clinical presenting signs and symptoms of this condition.
It outlines the extrinsic and intrinsic means whereby acid comes into contact with the teeth to produce dental erosion.
Graham’s research interests lie in applied dental materials science and dental erosion. He has published widely in these areas. A particular research interest lies in the measurement and comparison of worn dental surfaces. Techniques developed here have found application in dental restoration and erosion studies as well as in a variety of disciplines outside dentistry.
