Dr. Dharvi Gupta | The Dentist Mom Blogger 🧿 on Instagram: "Dental wear! I am talking about the loss of tooth structure, right. There are three main types: - Attrition: wear from tooth-to-tooth contact (grinding, clamping, etc.) - Abrasion: wear from external forces (brushing too hard, etc.) - Abfraction: wear from stress and flexure (tiny cracks near the gum line) - Erosion: wear from acid or chemical damage (diet, reflux, etc.)"
