Some less commonly presentations, with their own puzzling demands, will be also addressed.
General dental practice has never been more interesting, and the field of tooth wear satisfies so many aspects of the skills we are trained to use. It requires detective work and lateral thinking, empathy, and listening. Most of all, it’s about offering confidence and reassurance to patients who are often discovering for the first time that chemical and physical forces are damaging their teeth.
But not all tooth wear needs treatment. How then, does a clinician make the distinction, and what drives us to intervene? This book will weigh all aspects of the treatment options and the motivation for managing tooth wear. Above all, it focus on biologic, functional, and ethical rationale with the goal of enamel conservation and protection at the forefront.
