Occlusal loading may contribute to noncarious cervical tooth loss (abfraction) by creating stress concentrations at the tooth

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Biomechanical Engineering

Background:

  • Cervical tooth substance loss is often linked to abrasion and erosion.
  • The influence of occlusal loading on this phenomenon is gaining attention.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review evidence supporting occlusal loading's role in abfraction.
  • To explore interactions between occlusal loading and erosion in lesion formation.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of existing studies on occlusal loading and tooth wear.
  • Analysis of biomechanical principles related to cervical stress concentrations.

Main Results:

  • High occlusal loads may cause stress concentrations in the cervical region.
  • This stress can disrupt hydroxyapatite bonds, leading to enamel loss (abfraction).

  • Potential synergistic effects of occlusal loading and erosion were examined.

    • Conclusions:

    • Recognizing occlusal loading's role is crucial for managing abfraction lesions.
    • Incorporating occlusal management into treatment plans is recommended for patients with abfraction.
