“…Association between severity of tooth wear and cervical DH is still a scarce in the literature. Some studies found a positive correlation 21,22,23 . Reasons could be the proximity of the lesion with the pulp, the amount of exposed dentinal tubules and theory that root exposition makes the tissue more vulnerable to the influence of risk factors 24 .…”

Background/Aim. Dentine hypersensitivity (DH) is a commonly encountered clinical problem, characterized by short, sharp pain arising from exposed dentine. The aim of this study was to estimate the frequency of cervical DH in an adult population sample of city of Pancevo, Serbia, to evaluate correlation between DH and severity of cervical tooth wear, as well as to investigate the impact of certain etiological factors. Methods. The study included 394 subjects, who were clinically examined and interviewed about potential etiological factors using specially designed questionnaire. Presence of cervical DH was evaluated using cold air stimulation and Schiff ordinal scale. Severity of cervical tooth wear was evaluated using Basic Erosive Wear Examination-BEWE. Results were analyzed using chi-square tests and logistic regression at significance level of p?0.05. Results. The presence of cervical DH was recorded in 32.9% from total number of subjects. Chi-square analysis showed significant association between clinically elicited and questionnaire declared DH (p<0.001), but not with the presence of non-carious cervical lesions and the extent of cervical tooth wear. Cervical DH showed positive correlation with gender (p<0.001), frequent consumption of citrus fruits (p<0.001) and energy drinks (p=0.005). Oral hygiene and other factors were not significantly associated. Conclusion. The prevalence of cervical DH in the investigated sample was relatively high. DH was more prevalent among females and significantly associated with frequent consumption of citrus fruits and energy drinks.

OBJECTIVE: Tooth wear is a term defined as the loss of dental hard tissue in a damaged tooth if there is no existing dental caries or trauma. Tooth wear rarely exists alone and is observed clinically and experimentally in combination. Excessive tooth wear leads to hypersensitivity and exposed dentin. Tooth wear can be classified as attrition, erosion, abrasion. The frequency of normal tooth preservation is greater than ever, thus a better prevalence of tooth wear is experiential in the population. Therefore, the objective of the present cross-sectional study was to evaluate tooth wear and its causative risk factors amongst patients attending the Dental Hospital of Karachi. METHODOLOGY: The current study was a cross-sectional study conducted on adult patients recruited from the Out-Patient Department of Oral Diagnosis from May 2018 - December 2018. A consecutive sampling method was used and 250 adult patients aged 18-45 years were included. Tooth wear was assessed by using Smith and Knight Tooth Wear Index (TWI index).Data was entered and analyzed by using SPSS, frequency, percentages were calculated, and a chi-square test was performed to find the association between gender and risk factors. RESULTS: The subject populations of 250 were assessed. Out of which 178 were male (71.2%) and 72 (28.8%) were female with age ranging between 18 to 48 years old. In this study, 92.4% of them were suffering from tooth wear and only 31.2% have extended to the severe stage of the tooth surface loss. CONCLUSION: The present study concluded that there is an association between tooth wear and its risk factors.

“…7 Scores of 0-4 for the enamel and 0-5 for the dentine were assigned to the teeth, according to the severity of wear. 8 Statistical Methods: Collected data was entered in Microsoft Excel and coded accordingly. The statistical analysis was performed by statistical package for social science (SPSS).…”

Background & Objectives:Dentin hypersensitivity and pain following tooth preparation of vital teeth occurs with a highly variable prevalence often leading to constant pain requiring endodontic therapy. The study was conducted with objective to evaluate the impact of remaining dentin thickness, coronal pulp size, tooth wear on dentin hypersensitivity following tooth preparation.Materials & Methods:Total 138 permanent vital teeth for abutment of fixed partial prosthesis were included in the study. Tooth wear measured using ‘exact tooth wear index’ and level of sensitivity to stimuli was recorded using a numerical rating scale. Following tooth preparation radiograph using paralleling technique were used for measurement of remaining dentin thickness and pulp chamber.Results:The multiple linear regression predictor model summary and overall fit statistics indicated a high degree of correlation (R = 0.661, 0.889, 0.839 for anterior, premolar and molar teeth respectively). The total variation for pain could be explained in 43.7% (anterior), 79.1% (premolar), and 70.4% (molar) by the independent variables and there was a significant linear relationship between the variables in the model (p < .001).Conclusion:This study investigated few possible variables that may be taken into consideration before referring the vital abutment tooth for intentional root canal therapy so that every attempt can be made to avoid pulp amputation.
