What is New Tooth Wear Index for Young Adults about?
This study introduces a new Exact Tooth Wear Index that separately grades wear in enamel and dentine, applied to a sample of 1,010 university students aged 18-30. The findings reveal a high prevalence of enamel wear among participants, with 76.9% showing at least one surface with exposed dentine, and males exhibiting significantly more dentine wear than females. The index demonstrated good reproducibility, making it a valuable tool for assessing tooth wear in larger population studies.
