Introduction
Extensive tooth wear seems to have been the norm in
all ancient societies and is mainly attributed to factors
related to the diet (1, 2). The prevalence of tooth wear
in contemporary populations has not been thoroughly
studied but it is rare to find subjects with extensive
wear comparable with that in historical skull materials.
There are indications that tooth wear is on the increase
in children and adolescents, mainly as a consequence of

Historical aspects
Common findings in material from prehistorical populations are the notable changes in dento-alveolar and
craniofacial morphology over a lifetime (1, 8, 9). The
effects of excessive function, including that of wear, on
certain dento-alveolar morphological features have
been shown to be similar in modern man and his
ancestors (Fig. 1) (10, 11). It is generally believed that
in prehistorical populations, the extensive wear of
molars was mainly the result of a coarser diet, and
more vigorous and lengthy masticatory activity is
required by such a diet. The wear of anterior teeth, in
addition to its masticatory role, may also reflect the
549

confined to a particular cultural period and diet (19),
and not universally.
In contrast to linear progression, it has been
suggested that modern man more often experiences
bursts of wear, coinciding with the presence of
certain causative factors, such as frequent acid regurgitation or vomiting as it occurs in those with eating
disorders or reflux disease, frequent intake of acidcontaining drinks during childhood or adolescence or
intermittent periods of intensive bruxism (2024).
Consequently, a relatively short period of exposure
rather than on-going exposure may be responsible for
the widely differing severities and patterns of wear
found in people today, even amongst those of the
same age.
The mechanisms by which teeth wear, include
attrition, erosion and abrasion (25). These mechanisms seldom operate singly, and the overlap of two
or more of them often at different times adds to the
complexity of the phenomenon of wear (26). In
ancient man, tooth wear was generally believed to be
caused by attrition and abrasion, with erosion seldom
considered or even examined. Today, dental erosion
is widely considered to be a major cause of tooth
wear (3), yet the morphological features of the wear
seen show a remarkable similarity with those seen in
our ancestors (Fig. 3). In this light, it may be
hypothesized that dental erosion has been overlooked as a factor as regards the wear observed in
skull materials. This is supported by observations in
ancient Icelandic and British populations (15, 27).

salivary factors, occupational environment (e.g. airborne abrasives, acid, etc.), oral hygiene habits and
various aspects of the modern lifestyle have been
suggested to be associated with tooth wear. In addition,
reduced occlusal tactile sensitivity, high bite force and
increased endurance time, all of which reflect muscle
and functional proprioception, have been shown to be
correlated with extensive wear (for reviews see 4, 22,
36). There is often no strong evidence for a cause-effect
relationship, and very little is known about the importance of each in relation to another. Also, it has recently
been suggested that erosion is an aggravating factor in
tooth wear in children and certain groups of adults
(36). More research is needed to solve the many
remaining questions on the aetiology of tooth wear.
Bruxism
Some patients develop opposing matched wear facets
that are believed to be associated with intense tooth
grinding (Fig. 4). However, such faceting may not be
typical of bruxism alone (37) and is more likely to be
the result of a combination of different factors (38). In
addition, a diagnosis of bruxism is generally based on
the dentists opinion and is seldom verified by an
accurate diagnostic test (e.g. somnography or video
audio recordings). Even given a reliable diagnosis of
bruxism, its frequency and intensity over time in that
patient are seldom known.
It is also the case that severe tooth wear often shows
clinical signs of erosive damage, while attrition-like,
bruxing-induced wear as the sole feature is rare. The
commonly expressed opinion among the dental
551

A . J O H A N S S O N et al.
profession that tooth wear is mainly the result of
bruxing activity may border more on the anecdotal
than scientific and is not supported by the literature
(3743). Most of the studies reporting such an association are population studies based on self-reported
bruxism, which is unreliable (40).
That bruxism is not the major cause of tooth wear
has considerable documented support. In a group of
subjects with extensive tooth wear, many factors apart
from bruxism were found to have contributed to the
wear (26), while elsewhere a variety of wear was
found in a consecutive series of referred patients (16).
Awareness of bruxism was not associated with wear
scores and should not be used to define bruxist groups
(41). Similar findings have been reported by others
(37, 42). In a large epidemiological study, it was
concluded that the contribution of bruxism to the
overall experience of tooth wear was only 3% (43).
Amongst 30-year-old Japanese subjects, tooth wear
status was not predictive of ongoing bruxing activity as
measured by an intra-splint bruxing detection system
(44). In another well-designed study, it was concluded
that dental erosion and not attrition was the more
likely cause of the loss of tooth tissue in patients with
bruxism (38). The foregoing observations strengthen
the theory of the multifactorial aetiology of tooth
wear. It may also be concluded that the overall
significance of bruxism as a causative factor is not
fully known, but it has probably been overestimated.

Rehabilitative strategies
As already stated in the Introduction, there is a stark
absence of documented outcomes as to the rehabilitation of the worn dentition. Therefore, the recommendations that follow are based largely on published
studies whose designs are conventionally regarded to be
of less scientific rigour than RCTs, clinical experience
and opinions of respected authorities. Even though
treatment recommendations based on such sources are
not without merit, their less compelling scientific value
must be noted.
Definitive restorative procedures should not be performed without identification of aetiological factors, in
conjunction with adequate preventive measures and
advice. The question of restoration arises when the
patients needs, the severity of the wear and the
potential for progression are of concern. The evidence
that the presence of tooth wear will inevitably lead to
severe wear is scant (26, 69), and the factors that are
important in progression are not well understood
either. Therefore, the following citation should be
considered: Tooth wear is a natural process that
normally does not require specific treatment. Even
patients with more extensive tooth wear do not
necessarily require oral rehabilitation if the adaptation
is good (70).
Costly conventional fixed and removable prosthodontics was, and still is, the mainstay of rehabilitation of
555

the extensively worn dentition when treatment is
indicated. Such treatment is also complex and generally
highly invasive. The tendency on the parts of patient
and clinician alike has therefore been to defer treatment if at all possible, with the result that tooth wear
was usually well advanced by the time definitive
restorative treatment was commenced.
Dento-alveolar compensation Shortening of the clinical
crowns is an effect of wear that can have significant
restorative implications. Extensive wear may result in
changes to the occlusal vertical dimension (OVD),
possibly with increased interocclusal space. However,
it has been shown that dento-alveolar compensation
may cause the OVD to remain relatively constant or
even increased, despite the tooth wear (71, 72). This
would mean that any increase in OVD as part of the
reconstruction would be unnecessary.
If restoration is necessary, the pertinent question will
be whether the space required for restoration is available in maximum intercuspal position (MIP), and
whether retention and resistance will be adequate. If
the answer to the question is in the affirmative,
restoration in MIP is probably going to be relatively
straightforward. If, on the other hand, there is not
sufficient space, the next question will be whether the
wear is localized or generalized. For localized wear,
methods exist that can confine treatment to the worn
teeth and avoid it being disproportionately broadened;
generalized wear, on the other hand, will require a
re-organized approach with or without an increase in
OVD, and this will be discussed later.
Biomechanical factors When conventional fixed prosthodontic rehabilitation is necessary, single crowns
should be constructed whenever possible and fixed
dental prostheses (FDPs) should be of minimal extension. Nevertheless, many restorations fail as a result of
stress concentration from differential wear and poorly
planned or faulty occlusal contacts, a risk that is greater
if a heavy bruxing habit exists. An effective way to
increase the retention of conventionally retained
crowns on short, worn abutments is to furnish the
preparation with boxes and grooves or to include
parallel pins (73, 74). The once frequent use of surgical
crown lengthening to reposition the gingival tissues and
elective devitalization of teeth to place post and core
seems to be abating as minimal preparation or nonpreparation, adhesive techniques as well as techniques

occlusion with all teeth contacting, but with occlusal
contacts on the restored teeth only (82).
In addition to the aforementioned Dahl technique,
space may also be gained in certain cases, if occlusal
analysis reveals a large horizontal discrepancy between
centric relation (CR) and MIP, but with little vertical
discrepancy; occlusal adjustment of such centric interferences will produce a significantly more distal MIP
and thus adequate palatal space for full coverage
anterior restorations to be constructed (83, 84). In
cases of extensive anterior wear, such an approach can
maintain the original OVD, although in cases that are
planned for an increased OVD, the use of CR as the new
reference maxillomandibular position is in any case
implicit. The net space gained would in such cases have
been gained from a combination of the corrected
CR-MIP slide and the increase in OVD (Fig. 7).
2: Generalized wear. In cases of reduced OVD because
of wear it is generally recommended that it is so
maintained. If the patients adapted, worn in occlusion
has not caused any functional problems, it is not
essential to increase OVD. However, increasing the
OVD becomes necessary in those cases where interocclusal space problems or aesthetic considerations are
especially critical. In such instances, there need not be
undue hesitation in increasing the OVD. Conventional
methods of determining the new OVD should be used,
and there are seldom any adaptive problems. However,
while there are hardly any difficulties involved in
increasing the OVD in healthy individuals, a cautious
approach is advocated with such procedures in patients
exhibiting signs or symptoms of temporomandibular
disorder (TMD). Such patients should first be treated
with reversible methods to reduce the signs and
symptoms of TMD and normalize function before any
prosthodontic therapy is started (85). As stated earlier,
even if extensive tooth wear is present, the OVD could
well be unaffected because of compensatory eruption,
which is an additional reason to leave it unchanged if
possible.
Removable prosthodontic strategies Fixed prostheses are
expensive and not affordable for many patients who
require treatment of tooth wear. In many countries
where removable prostheses are common because of
reasons of tradition or economics, total extraction
followed by complete dentures is the commonly suggested therapy for managing such patients rehabilitative needs. Such treatment, however, results in gradual

In the older patient too, the availability of increasingly reliable adhesive technologies and materials
would seem to offer promise as a less invasive option
for the treatment of the worn dentition. While clinical
evidence for the efficacy of such technologies in
restoring dentitions uncomplicated by tooth wear is
appearing more and more, this is not the case for the
worn dentition. For example, labial porcelain veneers
are now established as a predictable long-term treatment option with a low failure rate, at least in
controlled clinical settings (96). In the worn dentition,
direct resin-based composite restorations placed at an
increased OVD when used to manage localized anterior
tooth wear, showed a median survival of 57 months for
225 restorations in 31 patients when all types of failures
were considered; major failure requiring replacement

clinicians (75), but the procedures involved are technique-sensitive and the method is not yet suitable in
the hands of all dentists. For treatment of cases of tooth
wear with an erosive background, there are no systematic studies and only case reports have been presented.
Therefore, it is advisable to exercise some caution when
it comes to restoring worn teeth with aesthetic alternatives that rely solely on adhesive bonding until more
reports on its clinical longevity have appeared. Conventional fixed prosthodontics, with its proven record
of long service even if only in the context of the entirely
lesser strategic demands of relatively unworn teeth
(which these data relate to), would seem in many
instances still to be the treatment of choice for extensively worn teeth (Fig. 13).
An alternative rehabilitative strategy was recently
proposed based on the principle of reversibility (101).
Because the worn dentition usually produces slow
occlusal breakdown, it permits most patients to adapt to
the changing situation until a level of unacceptable
function or comfort is reached. Contrasting with this,
typical methods of reconstruction represent a sudden
Maintenance phase
Regular follow-up of reconstructions are necessary for
several reasons. For example, a combination of short
clinical crowns, differential wear and bruxism, etc.,
increase the risks of cementation failure. Similarly,
erosion-induced wear may continue even in the presence of teeth with full coverage crowns and can
progress cervical to the crowned tooth if causal factors

checked, recorded, and treated as necessary. Individually designed preventive regimens should be prescribed and carried out with an interval determined
on the basis of the supposed aetiology and future
progression of the tooth wear. These could comprise
topical fluoride application, dietary advice and psychological motivation for lifestyle changes amongst
others. The lack of knowledge of long-term results of
restoration of tooth wear is a further reason for
regular follow-ups.
