Progressive, irreversible, and multifactorial in nature, tooth wear is a significant challenge that requires a patient-centered methodology for successful treatment. This impressive book advances an integrative and multidisciplinary approach to worn dentitions that promotes early detection, thorough assessment, and conservative treatment. The authors also understand that comprehensive treatment may require surgery, dental implants, orthodontics, and indirect restoration to improve oral health and achieve esthetic results. Each clinical aspect of tooth wear is effectively compiled in this volume—from concepts and diagnosis to treatment and communication and from prevention to long-term maintenance. A 16-page supplement is included to facilitate conversations with patients about tooth wear treatment and prevention. Contents: 1. Tooth wear: A major health issue 2. Tooth wear and saliva: The first line of defense 3. Etiology and types of tooth wear 4. Diagnosis and treatment planning in tooth wear 5. Incipient tooth wear 6. Moderate tooth wear: Treatment strategies 7. Severe tooth wear: Treatment strategies 8. Orthodontics in tooth wear treatment 9. Implants in patients with tooth wear 10. Are we in time to flatten the tooth wear curve?
