Oral hygiene and consumption habits related to acidic beverages and their correlation with dental erosion and dentine hypersensitivity in 18-30 year-olds
Journal Title: Medicine in Evolution - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 3
Abstract
Due to the increasing availability and consumption of acidic beverages in the modern population, the problem of conditions other than dental caries has to be addressed. Accordingly, the focus in this study is based on the correlation between acidic beverages and dental erosion and dentinal hypersensitivity in particular performed by assessing of people's general oral hygiene and current state of knowledge on this matter. Furthermore, the consumer's behavior, drinking habits or other contributing harmful factors for the oral environment will be evaluated. The participants' self-assessment and self-awareness on this topic also play a significant role and will be discussed. Consequently, the need for further education and distribution of information about dental erosions and their development can be estimated.
