However, the selection of this material and its method of application may not consistently provide a satisfactory longer-term treatment solution, particularly at molar teeth. This clinical approach is neither mutually exclusive, as there are various alternative dental materials available for similar clinical purposes, often applied using indirect fabrication techniques. These alternatives may offer benefits such as enhanced aesthetics and superior mechanical properties. It is essential for clinicians to have a comprehensive understanding of the various dental materials and techniques that may be suitable for a given clinical presentation. This involves evaluating the risks, benefits, costs and likely prognosis of each option. A thorough grasp of application protocols, along with an evidence-based approach, is crucial with the attainment of informed consent. In this chapter, the role of indirect restorations - ranging from resin-based composites to ceramic materials - will be discussed, along with the supporting evidence. The use of both partial and full-coverage indirect restorations will be reviewed, as well as the performance of more novel dental materials. An overview of the key stages in planning the rehabilitation of worn dentition will also be provided, including occlusal considerations, occlusal treatment concepts and smile design - critical factors for achieving optimal treatment outcomes.

There is a paucity of research and evidence for some of the suggested protocols, and some sections are based on clinical experience. Recall for patients who have undergone non-invasive treatment is either for behavioural change and/or monitoring of progression of tooth wear. Behaviour change needs to be patient centred and holistic, with an individualised plan. Recall is essential to assess adherence to any behavioural change plans and advice, as well as any change in the patient's risk category. If the patient has active signs or symptoms associated with erosive tooth wear progression, such as dentine hypersensitivity, symptomatic reflux or an active eating disorder, it is prudent to review the patient after 3 months. If the recall visit is mainly cantered around assessing progression of the wear, periods between 1 and 3 years depending on the presumed aetiology of the patient are appropriate with the current methods of assessing progression, including intraoral scans and various indices. The main aims are to identify the risks, reduce the risks and ensure the progression of wear is stabilised. In cases where invasive treatment has been carried out, the non-invasive recall and maintenance still apply. In addition, the recall visits entail repair or replacement of restorations. In general, the most minimally invasive approach that is accepted by the patients should be attempted, such as monitoring stained margins, repair of restorations to prolong the lifespan of the restoration or in some cases progression to more invasive restorations, all depending on the patient's wishes and the goal of improving quality of life.</p>","PeriodicalId":520236,"journal":{"name":"Monographs in oral science","volume":"33 ","pages":"275-283"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144176295","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The application of adhesives, sealants or flowables is considered to be an effective alternative to fluoride, but requires a re-sealing of the surface every several months depending on the products used.

Furthermore, people with eating disorders or reflux, special diets, regular consumption of acidic foods and beverages, some medications or drugs, and occupational exposure to acids, including athletes, are at high risk for ETW. Differences in indices, sample sizes, study designs, in case of risk groups, small sample sizes and heterogeneous study groups, and lack of calibration of observers make it difficult to compare studies and estimate the true global prevalence. This chapter provides a narrative overview of data on ETW in the primary and permanent dentition of children, adolescents, and adults. There is an enormous variability in prevalence, ranging from 1 to 100% in the primary dentition (rough mean 30-50%), from <1 to 97% in the permanent dentition of children/adolescents (rough mean 20-40%), and from 2 to 100% in adults (rough mean 30-50%) over the world. Eating disorders are associated with increased prevalence, severity, and risk, although not all patients have pathological levels of ETW. There also seems to be a tendency for ETW to be more frequent and severe in case of reflux. Regarding exogenous causes, many studies, but not all, document a positive association between consumption of acidic drinks and ETW. Similar was found for use of drugs/medication and special diets. Although some associations between acid exposure and prevalence of ETW appear clear, the number of studies with large sample sizes is small.

Dental minerals are forms of hydroxyapatite containing impurity ions, which mostly increase solubility, so dentine or cementum mineral is more soluble than enamel mineral and all are more soluble than hydroxyapatite. Solubility is an important factor in erosion because it determines whether a solution is in equilibrium with the solid ('saturated') or is capable of dissolving or precipitating the solid ('undersaturated' or 'supersaturated'). In vitro, the dissolution rate is influenced by the degree of saturation of an erosive solution and also by other properties of the solution, such as pH, calcium concentration, buffering, fluoride and the presence of inhibitors. Furthermore, dissolution rate is influenced by the distinct structures of dentine and enamel, which modulate interactions between the tissue and the solution. Data on a wide range of beverages and other products, such as medications, indicate that the degree of saturation with respect to hydroxyapatite and fluorapatite contributes to erosivity, but that pH is probably the most useful single factor in predicting erosive potential. The role of buffering in erosive potential is not fully established and little is known of the role of naturally occurring inhibitors.

Deciduous molar hypomineralisation (DMH) represents a qualitative enamel defect primarily afflicting deciduous second molars, albeit its presence is not limited solely to deciduous second molars, as it can manifest in deciduous canines and first molars. Thus, the presence of demarcated hypomineralisation defects in deciduous teeth could be called as deciduous teeth hypomineralisation. Clinically, these defects are characterized by demarcated opacities, posteruptive enamel breakdown, atypical caries lesions, and atypical restorations. The accurate diagnosis of DMH continues to present a clinical challenge, and the reported prevalence of this defect exhibits notable variability across different countries. Its precise etiology remains elusive; however, there is a prevailing suspicion that events occurring during the prenatal, perinatal, or early postnatal periods, particularly those unfolding during the perinatal phase, are intricately linked to DMH development. Factors such as delivery complications, neonatal complications, prematurity, and low birth weight have been associated with DMH. Notably, there exists a possibility that, the more health-related events occur during this critical period, the greater the likelihood of a child presenting with this enamel defect. Nevertheless, the establishment of these associations warrants further investigation through prospective studies.
