Attrition of teeth is the gradual loss of tooth structure caused by tooth-to-tooth contact, typically due to normal or excessive chewing or grinding (bruxism). This natural wear affects the enamel first and may eventually reach the underlying dentin if severe. It is most commonly seen on the incisal edges of front teeth and the occlusal surfaces of molars. Factors such as aging, parafunctional habits, or malocclusion can accelerate attrition. Clinically, it presents as flattened or worn-down biting surfaces, sensitivity, and sometimes changes in bite or aesthetics. Unlike erosion or abrasion, attrition is mechanical and results from direct contact between teeth. Early diagnosis is important to prevent further damage, and management includes behavior modification, occlusal splints, and restorative treatments when needed to maintain function and appearance. dental clinic in Nolambur, dentist in Nolambur, best dental clinic in Nolambur, best dentist in Nolambur, root canal treatment in Nolambur, dental crowns and bridges in Nolambur, wisdom tooth removal in Nolambur, dental brackets and wires in Nolambur, denture treatment in Nolambur, near me , dental clinic in Mogappair, dentist in Mogappair, best dental clinic in Mogappair, best dentist in Mogappair, root canal treatment in Mogappair, dental crowns and bridges in Mogappair, wisdom tooth removal in Mogappair, dental brackets and wires in Mogappair, denture treatment in Mogappair, near me
