acid erosion

The root wear may be unrelated or related to acid erosion.

Ask your dentist about using commercial toothpastes to reduce tooth sensitivity or to protect against acid erosion.

Stricture, due to gastric acid erosion of the shortened esophagus.

Throthing or swishing acidic drinks around the mouth increases the risk of acid erosion.

Acid erosion often coexists with abrasion and attrition.

Diasec samples that were made in the 1970s show negligible colour shift, the whites are still pure and there is no evidence of acid erosion visible.

A number of medications such as vitamin C, aspirin and some iron preparations are acidic and may contribute towards acid erosion.

Acid erosion, also known as dental erosion, is the irreversible loss of tooth structure due to chemical dissolution by acids not of bacterial origin.

Acid erosion to teeth that is caused by bacterial acid is described as an "acid attack" in dental literature (see also Tooth decay).

The plastic-like polymers thoroughly coat the paper fibers, which are shaped like hollow tubes, and strengthen each page as well as protect the book from further acid erosion.

Dentyl pH contains no alcohol and has the same pH profile as saliva, reducing the likelihood of acid erosion of dental enamel.

There is generally widespread ignorance of the damaging effects of acid erosion; this is particularly the case with erosion due to fruit juices, because they tend to be seen as healthy.

Bulimia also has negative effects on the sufferer's dental health due to the acid passed through the mouth from frequent vomiting causing acid erosion, mainly on the posterior dental surface.

These lipids form a hydrophobic lining on the mucosal luminal surface that repels the back diffusion of acid ions (H + ) and therefore provide an effective 'mucosal barrier' against acid erosion.

Frequency rather than total intake of acidic juices is seen as the greater factor in dental erosion; infants using feeding bottles containing fruit juices (especially when used as a comforter) are therefore at greater risk of acid erosion.

Another possible cause of tooth wear is acid erosion, which may occur in people who drink a lot of acidic liquids such as concentrated fruit juice, or in people who frequently vomit or regurgitate stomach acid, which itself can occur for various reasons.

Other possible adverse effects include increased oxalate excretion and kidney stones, increased uric acid excretion, systemic conditioning ("rebound scurvy"), preoxidant effects, iron overload, reduced absorption of vitamin B12 and copper, increased oxygen demand and acid erosion of the teeth with chewing ascorbic acid tablets.
