  • Title: Dental erosion: diagnostic-based noninvasive treatment.
    Author: Cardoso AC, Canabarro S, Myers SL.
    Journal: Pract Periodontics Aesthet Dent; 2000 Mar; 12(2):223-8; quiz 230. PubMed ID: 11404963.
    Abstract:
    Lesions that result from dental erosion can be difficult to recognize--particularly when abrasion and attrition are also present. Consequently, dental erosion is often misdiagnosed and mistreated by radical restorative modalities that compromise the vitality of the pulp. This article provides clinicians with knowledge concerning the diagnosis of the complex lesions of dental wear and demonstrates the conservative treatment of this condition. Two cases that exhibit marked tooth wear in anterior teeth and their subsequent restoration utilizing occlusal principles and composite resin are presented.
