Dentin hypersensitivity: pain mechanisms and aetiology of exposed cervical dentin

TL;DR: Clinicians need to be mindful of the aetiology and risk factors in order to manage patients' pain and expectations and prevent further dentin exposure with subsequent sensitivity.

Design of erosion/abrasion studies--insights and rational concepts

TL;DR: The parameters which must be carefully considered in erosion-abrasion research are described and discussed to ensure that the problem is investigated in an appropriate mode at standardised conditions and with adequate measuring systems to allow prediction of clinical outcomes.

Composite vertical bite reconstructions in eroded dentitions after 5·5 years: a case series.

TL;DR: Six cases of erosive worn dentitions (75 posterior teeth), which have been reconstructed using a template-based technique with direct composite resin restorations and already examined after 3 years in service, are reported.

The role of oral hygiene: does toothbrushing harm?

TL;DR: In vitro studies showed that toothbrushing abrasion is primarily related to the abrasivity of the Toothpaste, while the toothbrush acts as a carrier, only modifying the effects of the toothpaste.

Can tooth brushing damage your health? Effects on oral and dental tissues

TL;DR: In normal use it must be concluded that the benefits of tooth brushing far out-way the potential harm, and when combined with erosion that significant harm may be thus caused.

Investigation of erosion and abrasion on enamel and dentine: a model in situ using toothpastes of different abrasivity.

TL;DR: Erosion increases the susceptibility of enamel to toothpaste abrasion, which was considerably greater for dentine than enamel, and appears to correlate with toothpaste abrasivity (RDA value).

Intrinsic Causes of Erosion

TL;DR: A literature review reports the conditions associated with the movement of gastric juice and dental erosion using medical and dental sources and appears that gastric acids are equally likely to induce moderate-to- severe erosion as in dietary acids.

Studies in vitro of abrasion by different manual toothbrush heads and a standard toothpaste

TL;DR: Calculations on the clinical outcome of these data in vitro indicate that toothbrushing with toothpaste alone would produce minimal damage to dentine even over many years, and the data do not support the use of hard brushes, particularly in view of the potential detrimental effects to gingival tissues.

Q1. What contributions have the authors mentioned in the paper "Abrasion of eroded dentin caused by toothpaste slurries of different abrasivity and toothbrushes of different filament diameter" ?

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of toothpaste slurry abrasivity and toothbrush filament diameter on abrasion of eroded dentin in vitro. The toothbrushes were applied with a control slurry free of abrasive particles ( RDA-value 10 ) or toothpastes slurries with different abrasivity ( RDA-values 20, 50 or 100 ). 

toothbrushes with smaller filament stiffness caused higher dentin wear in all toothpaste slurry groups (RDA 20, 50 and 100) except for the paste-free control group (RDA 10). 

Conclusion: Abrasion of eroded dentin increased along with the RDA-value of the toothpaste slurry and with decreasing filament diameter of the toothbrush.
