Throughout the years, the dental profession has held a variety of theories about the causes of tooth wear, including chemical wasting of the teeth, the effects of tooth brushing, and lateral forces. Tooth wear may present as abfraction, abrasion, attrition, and erosion. It is well established...
The loss of tooth structure due to repeated mechanical contact with objects other than teeth is termed abrasion. This process is considered to be pathologic. Any object placed against the teeth can cause abrasion. Evidence exists of various forms of abrasion in prehistoric populations.2,24,39,40,...
Abfraction affects the gingival third of the teeth on the facial surface. It mainly affects premolars and anterior teeth. Bacteria have no role in abfraction, so it may affect individuals with good oral hygiene. The aim of this review is to throw lights on the etiological causes of this ...

Control teeth also had significantly less gingival recession than did affected teeth. Seventy-five percent of subjects reported a history of using a firm toothbrush, and 78.1 percent reported using a brushing technique that is known to cause toothbrush abrasion in the affected area. Affected teeth ...
