FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: functional and morphological nature of dental defects is assessed to prescribe the treatment. If the diagnostic findings show reducing the grinding surface enamel, preserving a contact point and grinding surface dentine with 1 mm maximum crown length loss, preserving the central fissure enamel and tooth viability, the treatment is supposed to include preventive measures. If observing the grinding surface enamel lost in the antagonist contact areas, the preserved contact point, the minimally injured grinding surface dentine with 1 mm maximum crown length loss, the lost central fissure enamel, however the preserved tooth viability, direct composite restoration is presented as the treatment. If observing the lost grinding surface enamel lost, the preserved contact point, the prominently injured grinding surface dentine with 2 mm maximum crown length loss, the lost central fissure enamel, however the preserved tooth viability, indirect ceramic or composite restoration is presented as the treatment. If observing the lost grinding surface enamel lost, the preserved contact point, the significantly injured grinding surface dentine with more than 2 mm maximum crown length loss, the lost central fissure enamel, however the preserved tooth viability, indirect ceramic restoration is presented as the treatment. If observing the lost grinding surface enamel lost with no contact point preserved, the significantly injured grinding surface dentine with more than 3 mm maximum crown length loss, the lost central fissure enamel and tooth viability, root canal treatment followed by tooth stump restoration and total teeth replacement is presented as the treatment. The process of buccal teeth abrasiveness has five stages each of which has a specific characteristics and specific therapeutic alternatives.
EFFECT: by assessing a degree of buccal teeth abrasiveness, the invention enables selecting a specific therapeutic option, assessing the prognosis for the disease and deciding on the onset of the disease.
