The prevalence and management of erosive tooth wear

Erosive tooth wear is prevalent in the UK and the number of people presenting with signs of the condition is increasing, Pronamel says. According to the Adult Dental Health Survey, over three quarters of dentate adults (77%) showed some tooth wear in their anterior teeth, 15% showed moderate wear and 2% showed severe wear (Health and Social Care Information Centre, 2011). Research in Europe highlighted that up to one in three young adults (aged 18-35) exhibit signs of enamel wear (Bartlett et al,  2013). Tooth wear is a progressive condition that may have lifetime effects, both cosmetic and structural (Harding et al, 2010), highlighting the importance of early intervention and discussion with patients around diet and dietary habits to assess risk.
