Abstract:
A case of abrasive tooth surface loss caused by repeated sliding contact with the tissue surface of a cobalt-chromium denture base is described. The mode of material-tooth contact was brought about by an unusual patient habit which would have been difficult to foresee when the choice of denture base material was made.
