Study supported by a research grant from GSK
First and largest pan-European Epidemiology Study on Non-Carious Cervical Lesions (NCCL) and
Associated Risk Factors to date, providing scientific insight to understand prevalence and
associated risk factors of tooth wear and dentin sensitivity1
Devised and conducted by six of the world’
s leading dental experts in acid erosion1
Assessed 3,187 subjects, between 18 and 35 years old, for tooth wear1
Across seven European countries: UK, Italy, France, Spain, Finland, Latvia and Estonia1
Unveiled at the 101st Annual FDI World Dental Congress in Istanbul, August 2013
ESCARCEL Re ve als :
Almost one-third (29.4%) of 18–35 year olds have tooth wear or tooth enamel wear1
Erosive tooth wear is prevalent in young adults; even those as young as 18 years1
— Tooth wear was higher in 26–35 year olds compared to 18-25 year olds 1
Those with frequent acidic food intake had higher levels of tooth wear1
— Leading a modern lifestyle that includes a diet rich in acidic food such as fruits, juices,
tea and sodas is a likely contributor to the increase of the condition

Consequences of Advanced
Erosion
So c ial
Patients may be embarrassed about their appearance
Func tio nal
TMJ problems due to loss of vertical dimension, loss of teeth, and bruxism
Sensitivity
Difficulty incising foods
Pain due to pulp exposure
Need for major rehabilitation including surgical crown lengthening,
full mouth reconstruction, multiple endodontic treatment, and extractions
Diag nosis
Dental professionals are sometimes confused by its signs and
symptoms, and its similarities and differences from the other
categories of tooth wear.4

Nutritional Counselling
Why diet is a key factor
Frequent and high acidic food intake increases levels of tooth wear11
• Snacking, grazing, sipping, and swilling increase contact time of acidic
substance with the teeth
• pHis not the only factor
Manner in which food or
drink is consumed is more
important than the overall
quantity.
Nighttime exposure to acids
is thought to be particularly
destructive because of the
absence of salivary flow.4

Dietary C ounselling Advice

Limit acid foods and drinks to mealtimes.
Reduce frequency.
Avoid acidic substances last thing at night.
Finish meals with something alkaline such as a small piece
of cheese or milk.
Avoid tooth brushing after acidic substances.
Chewing gum has been shown to stimulate salivary flow
and increase buffering capacity, but may also cause
increased gastric secretion.

Slightly Different Formula
Enamel is a calcium depleted –carbonated hydroxyapatite
Ca10 (PO4 )6 (OH)2
CO3 -
Na +
Ca===Na===(PO4)-OH===CO

This means that the hydroxyapatite in enamel has too many
chemical bonds that can be broken.
This is the reason why acid can attack and demineralize
enamel.

When a large concentration of fluoride is added to the hydroxyapatite
surface the fluoride combines with Ca to make CaF.
This Ca-F acts to create a barrier to protect against acid and also works to
prevent the breakdown of hydroxyapatite.

Fluoride Varnish
There is conclusive evidence from several
studies that fluoride varnish has a significant
role to play in protecting enamel.15
Newer studies show that it requires repeated
applications to be effective.
Great preventive measure but not very
convenient.

Fluoride Rinses
Has been shown to produce a significant anti-caries effectNot enough evidence to show effect on erosion.
New studies show great promise if fluoride rinse is
combined with other ingredients as tin or titanium.
Weekly versus daily:
Daily rinses show better efficacy.

Fluoridated Toothpaste
“
Toothpastes have a preventive effect.”
Toothpastes in the market that are specifically created for erosion must have:18
Maximum highly active sodium fluoride
—In the Canadian market the maximum concentration of sodium fluoride permitted in a daily
toothpaste is 1150 ppm
Low abrasion –to prevent further wear
Anti-sensitivity agent such as KN03 –erosive lesions often lead to sensitivity
A gentle detergent system to minimize irritation to soft tissues and reduce the
disruption of smear layer –this helps to reduce progression of erosion on root
surfaces
NOTE: Proper brushing techniques and soft
toothbrush are also key to reducing wear

Patients are keeping their teeth longer.
Enamel erosion is on the rise and affects a large portion of the
population.
Acid is the main cause of the erosion.
This acid is most commonly associated with our modern day diet.
Combination of parafunction habits and dietary acids can lead to rapid
tooth wear. This leads to many dental problems ranging from minor
sensitivity to severe pain.
Diagnosing and treating the cause is in the practice of every
DENTALHYGIENIST.
Hygienists have a significant role to
play in diagnosing and managing
acid wear.
