7 Year Follow up Analysis on the Speed of Progression of Tooth Wear Using 3D Subtraction

February 22, 2024 updated by: Radboud University Medical Center

The Progression of Tooth Wear and Possible Risk Factors: a 7 Year Follow up

Prospective observational study with 7-year follow up. 55 patients are included with moderate to severe tooth wear, whereby through informed consent the decision was taking to monitor the patients. At the baseline and 1, 3 5, and the 7-year recall digital 3D scans will be made, which will be compared and subtracted.

Detailed Description

Prospective observational study with 7-year follow up. 55 patients are included with moderate to severe tooth wear, whereby through informed consent the decision was taking to monitor the patients. At the baseline and the 5-year recall digital 3D scans will be made, which will be compared and subtracted. Per tooth the loss of material is measured in maximum loss in height (µm) and volume (mm3) per year, using best fit alignment and 3D subtraction.

The loss of tooth material will be analyzed using descriptive statistics and possible effects of jaw type, tooth type and cusp type will be analyzed using multi level regression models.

The use of index teeth will be analyzed.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

The participants in this research will be drawn from the RTWP (Radboud Tooth Wear Project) patient sample which consists of nearly 200 tooth wear patients. Patients are included through dentist referral or of their own volition. Out of this population, 55 patients are managed non-restoratively, because they do not experience problems in regards to their tooth wear, and have no restorative treatment need in their perception

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Generalized tooth wear
  • A minimum of three posterior teeth (premolars and molars) per quadrant
  • A maximum of one edentulous space in need for treatment, with a maximum span of one tooth-width

Exclusion Criteria:

  • ASA 4
  • Edentulous space has a span exceeding 1 tooth-width, or more than one space
  • Functional problems (mouth opening <5cm, Temporomandibular Dysfunction)
  • Severe periodontitis
  • Strong gag reflex

Design Details

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Studie A ESO - monitoring
Patients that present themselves at the clinic through referral from their dentist with tooth wear, who have no request for help, receive a non-restorative 'counseling & monitoring' strategy , in which appropriate preventive measures are recommended and wear and tear is monitored and recorded by periodically taking intra-oral photographs and 3D scans
